CALYPSO® MANGO SEASON IS HERE! GET A FACE FULL OF FLAVOUR THIS SUMMER!

The perfect Summer time fruit, Calypso® mangoes are grown in the Australian tropics. Calypso® mangoes have irresistibly sweet flesh that’s firm and without the stringy bits that get stuck in your teeth. The season commences in the Northern Territory and ends in far North Queensland. 

How to pick the perfect Calypso^® mango?

Calypso® mangoes are ripe and ready to eat when you buy them in store, but there are times when you want one that’s ripe and ready to eat today and other times when you will want to keep it for later in the week.

How to keep your Calypso^® mango?

Use our selection hints to buy one Calypso® Mango that’s ready to eat today, and one that will be perfect tomorrow – that way you won’t miss out!

The best place to keep your Calypso® Mango is at room temperature, out of direct sunlight and heat. A cool spot on your kitchen bench will be just fine but make sure you keep it away from ripening bananas (they’ll make your mango over-ripen very quickly).
