Lantao, headquartered in Shanghai, China has teamed with Java Fresh of Indonesia to introduce salacca to the Chinese market.

Salacca, is often referred to as “snake-fruit” due to its scaly outer covering.  Though the fruit has a prickly outer skin, the inside meat is very sweet, and slightly acidic, not unlike a pinnapple in flavor. Its inner texture is crisp like an apple, but juicier, with a small inedible stone inside.

The fruit is high in fiber, potassium and pectin, so it is healthy as well as delicious to eat.
