- Hello everyone, in this video I wanted to compare 3 of my favorite fruits part of the #Annonaceae family that often get confused for one another.
The Annonaceae family is known for its fruits that consist of a ‘custard’ taste and for its unique & symmetrical fruits that are produced. Not only are these fruits attractive to the eye but are prized for there sweet and exotic taste that rivals to no other fruit on earth.
The sugar apple (A. squamosa) is known for its bumpy surface and creamy white inside accompanied by many seeds. Sugar apple is unique with its chewy texture and juicy flavor.
A. cherimola or Cherimoya is better recognized for its smooth and scaled surface usually the shape of a heart. The inside is noticeably different as it is usually smoother profile than the sugar apple and stays together when eating.
A. muricata or Soursop (Guanábana) is notorious for its size and shape. The fruit bears tiny spikes that are soft to the touch - but it’s size is goliath compared to that of the sugar apple and cherimoya. The soursop is also prized for its healing properties that are abundant in the fruit.
Out of the three Annonas compared I like soursop(Guanabana) due to the amount of fruit (pulp) you are able to extract and use for juices for the following days - one of these fruits can feed a whole family.
Walking to different markets and seeing all 3 of these being used interchangeably has been driving me crazy for literal years! Thank you for clarifying!!
No problem, I am glad the video provided better clarification on the Annonaceae fruits.
Thanks for doing the comparison, it is very helpful. The sugar apples and atemoyas are often mislabeled in the supermarket.
And my mouth is watering. I was able to smell the delicious aroma from this fruits through the video. 😁😁
Thank you for making this video. I really was confused but you explained everything so well.
Thanks! The clearest of comparisons. Wells done.
Can’t say thank you enough for this video as I was beyond confused before this .not any more ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This video was very helpful,thank you.😀👍🏼
This video was so helpful! I’ve relocated to Mexico and see these all around but had no ideas what they were! Thank you!
Thank you very much for this very useful and interesting video. I grew up in the tropics. We have two large Soursop trees with large fruits. Since living in Australia, I don't have access to exotic fruits like these. Then I found a lonely and sad looking Soursop at the corner of a pile of common fruits such as oranges and apples on specials. I thought this Soursop is on special because it is so tiny. I took it home. Then I found this to be nothing like a Soursop ! My curiosity took me to find out that what I have bought is in fact a sugar Apple ! Now I know the differences between Soursop and Sugar Apple. By the way, some websites actually confused a Soursop with a Sugar Apple because of their exterior similarities.
Thank you! Helpful. Would appreciate a rundown of the flavor profiles of the various varieties when you have time. Also, information on growing conditions, including pollination, time from pollination to fruit maturity, etc.
Thank you for teaching the difference. Very useful
Thank you for the wonderful info on these fruits! I have 1 Guanabana and one Sweet Sop tree. My Guanabana is having a difficult time this year with temp changes and early heat.
I love Guanabana and my sweet sop is fruiting for first time this season! So excited!
This is so elaborate. Thank you so much
You are most welcome 🤗
Muy buena explicación.
this was helpful thank you!
I went to Spain yesterday for some shopping and bought some Cherimoyas for the first time. I'm just waiting for them to ripen, can't wait to try them!
This video was very informative. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
You are most welcome. Thanks for watching and enjoying.
Ty for this ❤
Great video Harley 👍🏼
Thank you Phillip for the support 👍🏼
Omg that soutsop! Subscribed! Lol
Yeah I needed this video, I was in Bani Dominican Republic 🇩🇴, and ate all 3 of these fruits but wasn’t informed about them. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video!
You are welcome, I am glad it was helpful to you.
Could have done taste comparison too: which is sweeter, more sour, creamier, what are the perfumes, textures, what do they remind you most of?
I've tried chirimoya and guanabana, and chirimoya is sweeter and creamier.
I always wanted to know .thank you so much.
Your most welcome.
I never saw a soursop so large! Awesome!
Nice keep it up
Thank you
Oooohhhh all looked lovely ... the only one I have had was soursap made into a delious juice in Jamaica. I bought two custard apples in Leeds, UK - market but as I did not know they were old and went mouldy in three days - So sad.
LOVE SOURSOP!! Family in PR showed me this fruit
I LOVE soursop too! In Colombia we grow lots of it.
Great video maybe next time compare more of the unusual varieties like the Ilamas. I’m keen to know how they differ exactly from the sugar apples.
yummmmmm! faves
Dear Harley hello! Thank you for video. Good job!
Please show too Annona reticulata fruits!
Best regards,
Denis.
Hi my freind thank you for the support . I will show A. reticulata fruits when they are flowering and fruiting this spring season 2021.
Cherimoya sooo good. In Spain right now and they are in season , First time I have had one!
nice
I got to know Cherimoyas in Peru and I‘m always happy when I find some in a store… they are not very common here in Switzerland. I‘d really like to try the Soursop… but in general: very delicious fruit.
Enjoying your videos as I live in South Florida and have both sugar apple and sour sop but neither has had any fruit. What about taste?? How do they compare in taste to each other.
Nice video
Thank you for enjoying my Annona video
We call the sugar apple, "atis" in the Philippines and the soursop, "guyabano". I miss all those fruits since they're not locally available in Texas.
Love sugar apples, can't get enough of the, I wish I had space for 3 trees.
They do great in pots if you can get them in the ground, but I am the same I want to plant as much sugar apple as possible.
@@gardenflorida can you graft all three to one another?
Yo adoro las chirimoyas, y me encantaría probar las otras dos frutas. Donde vivo solo hay chirimoya ❤
Thank you for your very informative video , living in the US urban areas these fruits are hard to find. However I have would love a video on the differences in the taste or flavors of this family of fruits. I have had soursop only in canned juice form. Thanks again!
The sugar apple tastes like a vanilla custard of fruits. It’s different from the soursop in the sense where it’s not tangy at all just creamy sweetness!!
Thankyou for explaining the differences, I am growing Cherimoya here in the UK as indoor plants, I would live to get Sour sop seeds as we don't get that fruit imported here
Hi Louise. Im glad the video helped explain the differences. Soursop is a nice plant to grow from seed.
I'd love to grow annonas in pots. My first introduction to annona was with the pawpaw native to the eastern US.
Here in philippines we have all that kinds of fruits maybe you should visit phillipines sending full support to you
Used to eat custard apples (sugar apples) all the time back home in Malaysia. I thought the chirimoya was the same (I looked it up on the net) but after seeing how smooth it was, and tasting it, I was really doubtful. This video clarified it! Thanks! I way prefer the custard apple, btw :)
Yes I love sugar apples! I am glad the video confirmed it for you.
@@gardenflorida There are soursops that are sweet, we do not have to add sugar when we make juice with them. But there are soursops that are very sour, we have to put either sugar or condensed milk when we make juice with them. The preparation of custard apple or soursop is similar, like Yvonne I prefer custard apple. Custard apple juice is great.
In El Salvador, the sugar apple is called Chirimoya.
Thanks for explaining the difference between the Annonas. Do you sell the soursops? If you do I will like to buy some. Thanks
I got the sugar apple from my sister and its growing here in West Africa.
Cherimoya my favorite
Love soursop. It's not a good name to describe the fruit, which is super sweet, smooth in texture, soft, smells like Juicyfruit gum or fruit punch. Great in smoothies. Or eaten with a spoon! Thanks for the video. All the native tropical fruits have perfumes and intense flavors that we don't experience here in the US. There is no comparison between a commercial golden pineapple from Costa Rica for the US market, and a white pineapple in the Grenadines. The aromas are so spicy and intense! Reason enough to travel, just to try them.
I am glad you enjoyed the video. I agree with you the name soursop is a bland name for the fruit! I love to eat it with smoothies the best! I am traveling back to Colombia in a few months to eat some fruits I can’t wait!
Hi I'm in FL just south of Jupiter by Juno Beach. I still haven't gotten fruit from trees I planted going on 3 yrs ago. Is there something I can do to get them to fruit? I have a Soursop, Cherimoya (one white one red), and zapota...THANKS!
Love Soursop, bring some of them back with you and drop them off here in Fort Lauderdale lol
Haha will do John 😁
you got other varieties on the table!!! show them too pls. Also why peoples grow the small fruits when you can go this big? :O
Thanks for sharing the video, I love these fruits, delicious, new subbed 👌😘
Thanks so much for supporting me 😊
❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍
Any info on if the sugar apples share the same health benefits as the soursop?
Am eating soursop trying to know more about . Then I got your canal. Thanks.
I am glad you learned more about the healthy and amazing soursop.
🥰
Do they taste similar? I have only tried a custard apple, and if a soursop tastes similar and come sin that size, wow.
Was there a reason you didn’t do a taste test abs comparison?
I like all the anonas
Thank you for this other. Growing cherimoya and soursop here in Tampa. Your sugar apple will be a lot bigger if you cut the number of lateral branches, even if the tree is younger. They can get 2-3 times the size in this video. Of course there will be less number of fruit but a lot more "meat" and sweeter. With the number of seeds in sugar apple, the size definitely makes a difference. Happy Harvesting,
Where did you buy the seeds from to grow them?
The third one I like the most I eat many times and belive me it is very tasty sour in taste feel like a eating a cotton .
Do they have all these in colombia? And what season does it grow?
I only know cherimoya since its very common here in Madeira island. Very sweet and delicious. Can someone describe the flavor of soursop? I have no idea. I found the tree in sale here... im not sure if its a good investment or not.
Hi. Do you sell & ship to other states?
How does the big one taste, is the taste similar to the sugar apple
I fell in love with Cherimoya in Peru. It is hard to find in California, even if I do it is $10/lb and not as good. How does soursop taste like comparing to cherimoya? I think some Vietnamese stores sell it.
Soursop is more of a sour tasting fruit but still has notes of sweetness, it is not as chewy and creamy as cherimoya it is more watery and loose like cotton almost but has a unique creamy taste as well but is best if you blend it into a drink but can also be eaten out of hand like a cherimoya as well, both have really good health benefits.
You should have compared flavors I know what chirimoyas taste like ( like heaven) but how does it compare to apple sugar
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you for the support!
You should try pawpaw there related I never tried them but might be going to a pawpaw festival.
I never tried it too but I was actually thinking about going to the Paw paw festival in Pennsylvania that they have every year. Was that the once you were thinking of ?
@@gardenflorida no
Oh you should have described their taste lol keep doing these videos
Thank you! I will post one describing the taste of the Annonas.
@@gardenflorida thank you xoxo
sugar apple i very sweet and delicious fruits
I love sugar apple fruit as well
Hi, please how may i get those seeds?
I like soursop it taste really good
I love Soursop too
Can u please mix these together for a vegan ice cream
What is the green fruit with the big spikes next to the chupa chupa
How can I get soursop fruit & leaves imported to my country. Need for my mum☹️
i just heard of this fruit and we got some like 20 minutes ago, it looks like annona from the outside but from the inside its really hard. it was bitter and hard to eat, im thinking that maybe it was unripe?
it was definitely anonna though
I like the big type we call it in Ghana aligintugui is that the chi
Anona is called Atis in Philippines
Hello, guys. There's another cousin called "araticum". The taste is very strong. Tastes like a strong pineapple. It's native to Brazil. It looks like a gigantic sugar apple, but it's yellow inside.
See the video below:

Nice video thanks for sharing, this fruit part of the Annonaceae family is known as 'Annona crassiflora'.
👍♥️🇺🇸
🥭🌱🌳
Thanks I love custard apple or sugar apple but the soursop looks so close .
Right! They look almost similar the custard apple and soursop.
Mi friend is posible to buy from you one soursop tree?
I see all those fruits and I am just craving some. Maybe u can ship some to me I will gladly pay. Sugar apple sour sop, star apple jackfruit. Let me know 😁
I will be able to ship some fruit to you this season mid spring for jackfruit sugar-apple and soursop & star apple.
Hey let me know how I can pay u and what the process is as far as me ordering the fruits
Can you graft the sugar apple and cherimoya onto a soursop and visa versa?
Yea, but soursop as rootstock is not recommended for long term compatibility - its better to use cherimoya as rootstock.
@@gardenflorida I was hoping to have one tree with all three fruits on it...
I tryd cherimoya grafting on pawpaw it did not work.
Is custerd apple the same fruit sugar apple? This what I found when I looke for photoes and the name custard apple. And what is the plural of them. I meed them for school amd inform me are these american names or british it's important please.
people seem call all three of them the same name. they even call pawpaws sugar apple/ custard apple too.
@@billyd7628much appreciated
Is that guapinol or inga in the back?
Yes it was Inga spectabilis. In Colombia we call it Guama.
That soursop is $50-60 in SoCal
Yeah soursop cost so much in the United States. In a few years like 10 I hop its 10$ for one.
Cherimoya is the king of all the fruits on the planet!
yes
Do you sell these?
Hi there, I do not sell these as of yet.
Please..! I want Soursop seeds,
I come from Bangladesh
Is soursop sweet?
Some can be sweet or sour - but typically it’s a nice mix of both acidic and sweetness
Please send me a cherimoya plant.
Do they taste similar?
They are all different in flavors but share similarities in some flavor profiles and textures.
@@gardenflorida Thank you for replying.
Try paw paws
Why can't you be single and older? I wanna live in an annona farm too. Love fruits especially Annonas so much.
Haha! Too kind, glad we both share the love for Annonas!
@@gardenflorida have you tasted red geffner atemoya? It's the new craze right now with Asian folks and getting a lot of mixed reviews. Miami fruits was charging over $100. How insane. You can be their competitor but for annonas. Have you done a tour of all your annonas lately? And do taste tests!
Grow it with Japan 🇯🇵 sun 🌞 mango 🥭 togater in next farm
