How To Select - Champagne Mango

HOW TO SELECTYOUR MANGOS

Pick riper fruit now if you plan to consume in the near future, or firmer fruit to enjoy a few days later. Here are some tips to help you select the mango that is right for you…

FIRST, TAKE A PEEK...

It’s easy to know when your Champagne® mango is ripe – just look at the color! As the fruit matures, it turns from green to a deep, golden yellow.

GIVE ‘EM A SQUEEZE!

You know Champagne® Mangos are ripe first by the color, which turns more and more yellow, plus as the fruit ripens it becomes softer.

Firm = Not Ripe

If your mango is green in color and hard as a rock when you apply gentle pressure, it is a sign it is not ready yet.

Allow firm fruit to ripen at room temperature, never in the fridge.

Soft = Ripe

Champagne® mangos turn a deep golden yellow when fully ripe.

Mangos are usually very sweet and fully ripe when their skin starts to show signs of shriveling.

RIPEN FASTER!

To speed up ripening, place the mango in a sealed paper bag with another mango or an ethylene-producing fruit (e.g. avocados, tomatoes) at room temperature. This will allow the fruit to ripen faster, naturally!
