Jabuticaba fruit is readily available in Brazilian markets where they are mainly eaten fresh. Because the fruit begin to ferment 3-4 days after harvest, fresh fruit is rarely available outside of growing areas. Jabuticaba's striking colour and delicate flavor impart unique qualities to jams, jellies, ice creams and wines. Jabuticaba makes a refreshing juice drink with a flavour that is compared to grape, blackcurrant, lychee, mangosteen and guava! The fruit is also appreciated for its exotic fragrance.

Several potent antioxidant compounds have been isolated from Jabuticaba fruit, including jaboticabin, a new depside unique to Jabuticaba. Jaboticabin is being studied for anti-aging applications. Jabuticaba is a good source of Vitamin C. 100 grams of the fruit contains 57% of the RDI. Jabuticaba peel is also considered a good source of fiber.*

Jabuticaba is a slow growing tree that is grown for the delicious purple, grape-like fruits it produces. Jabuticaba has white flowers that grow directly from its trunk. The purplish black fruit is 3-4 cm in diameter and are borne directly on the trunk and branches of the tree lending a distinctly exotic appearance to the fruiting tree. Jabuticaba's deep purple skin covers a sweet translucent white to rosy pink flesh with a sub acid tang. 

Jabuticaba naturally flowers and fruits only once or twice a year but with regular irrigation, trees will produce fresh fruit year round in tropical regions. Originally native to south eastern Brazil, Jabuticaba is widely adaptable and is now grown commercially in many parts of the world including California and subtropical parts of Australia. Because of its slow growing habit and small size when immature, Jabuticaba is also a popular bonsai plant.
