Introducing our September Flavour of the Month: Mangosteen

Mangosteen is our Flavour of the Month (Despite the name, it’s not related to mango!)

Known as the “Queen of Fruits”, mangosteen is an emerging Southeast Asian fruit prized for its delicate, juicy flavour. Think notes of lychee, peach, strawberry and pineapple, balanced with subtle floral and vanilla-like undertones. The result is a sweet, refreshing flavour that’s both familiar and intriguingly unique.

Its versatility makes it a great match with flavours such as coconut, lime, passion fruit, yuzu, jasmine and vanilla, creating bright, tropical flavour combinations with a premium feel.

Mangosteen is also finding its way into a growing range of applications, from sparkling drinks, iced teas and functional beverages to ice cream, sorbets, confectionery, dairy products and desserts, as brands look to bring more exotic fruit experiences to consumers.

As demand for premium tropical flavours continues to grow, mangosteen is emerging as one to watch—offering a fresh twist on familiar fruit profiles while introducing consumers to one of Southeast Asia’s best-kept flavour secrets.

Whether you’re developing a refreshing summer beverage, the next standout clear whey, or looking to add something fresh and unexpected to your confectionery or savoury range, Mangosteen is the perfect profile that’s sure to make an impression.
