What is this curious object in my hand? With its scale-like pattern, it looks like a dragon's egg but it is actually the fruit of the Cherimoya Tree (Annona cherimola). The Cherimoya fruit is also called a "custard apple". It was a complex flavour similar to pear, custard, pineapple, and mild mango blended together. The inner part of the fruit is silky smooth surrounded by flesh textured like an Asian pear.
The Cherimoya name comes from the Quechua word for "cold seeds" and the plant has been cultivated in the Andes and Central America since prehistoric times. The Cherimoya fruit appears in the exquisite ceramic art of the Moche people from over 2000 years ago. The fruit is still very popular in Peru and Chile, where it is used as ice cream flavouring and in other desserts.
The Cherimoya tree is difficult to cultivate outside its native range due to the lack of natural pollinators and the delicate fruits are challenging to ship. Only recently has this fruit become available in Europe. This fruit is packed with antioxidants, vitamin B, and fibre as well as a potentially harmful toxin called annonacin which can cause nervous system damage. The toxin is concentrated in the seeds and skin, so as long as you avoid eating those part the fruit is safe.
Just don't wait for it to hatch into a dragon!

🌞 Happy new year! Hope you've all had a restful time over the holidays. To be honest, some of it has been a struggle for me but I'm moving into the new year with cautious positivity. Anyway, here is my entry for the Spoonflower/Pantone design challenge for the 2023 colour of the year. Although I'm mostly drawn to using greens and blues with the occasional purple, this vibrant kind of pink is also a favourite. I had a few different ideas for it but in the end dragonfruit really stood out to me, it was fun to draw them and experiment a little.
