What is Wax Jambu?

Wax jambu (Syzygium samarangense), sometimes called rose apple, water apple, or bell fruit, is a tropical delicacy native to Southeast Asia, particularly Malaysia and Indonesia.

The fruit is bell-shaped with glossy skin, ranging in colour from pale green to blush red. Its texture is light and airy, almost like a watermelon crossed with an apple, with a very mild sweetness and refreshing juiciness that makes it perfect for hot summer days.

With its crisp bite and subtle floral notes, wax jambu is loved for both its hydrating qualities and its unique appearance. It’s a fruit that’s as beautiful on the table as it is delicious to eat.
