Our favourite fruits.
- Tasmanian cherries.

- Papaya.
- Panama Red passionfruit.
- Rough leaf pineapples for my wife.

Now after saving the best till last.
- Mulberies.
- Granadillas.
Unfortunately, both mulberries and granadillas are not commercially available in FNQ but when we manage to actually source some, we make absolutely delicious mulberry pies and granadilla pies.
Serve with fresh cream on top of the slice and vanilla ice cream on the side.
I have been considering using fresh blackberries as a substitute when Coles have them on special for $4 for a 125gm punnet.
However, whilst at our local Coles yesterday, I noticed Coles 500gm packs of frozen blackberries for just over $6 each, but the pack actually scanned for a mere $4, which is the price shown on their website.
A mere 25% of the price of fresh blackberries and the country of origin is Chile.
Blackberry pie is on the menu this Easter.
