The Chilean plum, with its thick flesh and sweet, juicy flavor, is known as the "Fairy of Purple Mist" in the fruit world!

In March, everything comes back to life, presenting a vibrant scene. In the orchards of Chile in the Southern Hemisphere, the plums have entered their ripening season. Plump plums hang from the branches, swaying in the wind, their graceful figures captivating. Now is the golden season for Chilean plums to hit the market, and their tasting period is only a short month, so plum lovers should seize the opportunity!

Chile has been growing plums for nearly 70 years, with a planting area of up to 15,000 hectares, mainly concentrated in the Valparaiso and Maule regions. Backed by the Andes Mountains, irrigated by natural glacial water, and enriched by fertile volcanic soil, Chilean plums grow in an exceptional environment, producing sweet and delicious plums with thin skin and thick flesh, loved by people all over the world.

Chilean plums are one of the few fruits that can be eaten both firm and soft. When they are just ripe, they are crisp and sweet with delicate flesh. After a while, the starch converts into sugar, increasing the sweetness and making the texture soft, which is more suitable for the elderly and children. Currently, it is the golden period for Chilean plums to hit the market, so you can fully enjoy this sweetness! Ripe plums are purple, covered with a light layer of fruit powder, enchanting like a slightly powdered "Purple Fairy." This layer of fruit powder is formed by the natural secretion of fructose during the growth of the plums, symbolizing their freshness.

As the weather warms up, it's time to go outdoors, invite a few friends, and share this sweetness from the Southern Hemisphere. At the Chen's Sun stall, various specifications of Chilean plums are available, just waiting for your encounter. Plums are rich in vitamins, dietary fiber, potassium, phosphorus, calcium, and other nutrients. A gentle bite brings the amber-colored golden flesh bouncing between your lips and teeth, and the sweet juice flows on your tongue, bringing you immense happiness.
