Custard apples contain a thin, hard shell, creamy, sweet-tasting, aromatic jelly, and a clump of flesh-covered seeds inside. They are native to tropical western areas and are packed with Vitamin C, which combats free radicals in our bodies and is beneficial for blood pressure control. They are primarily consumed fresh, rather than in milkshakes, salads, or desserts. Cutting the fruit in two and pouring out the flesh is the finest way to enjoy it. The custard apple is so named because it smells and tastes like sweet apple custard. Here are some recipes yo  can make with custard apples-
