The sapote (Pouteria sapota), which originates from the lower parts of Central America, is a fruit-tree with free pollination, which generally multiplies by seed. Its fruit may be eaten raw or green and the flesh is used to make jams, icecreams and sauces: when cooked, it can be an acceptable substitute for apple purée and may also be used in confectionery. It takes 7 years for the tree to mature
