Savour the taste of a local treasure with our Maltese Orange Melon (Bettieħa). This melon, similar to a cantaloupe, is renowned for its deep orange, fragrant flesh and an intensely sweet flavour that is hard to beat. Grown in local fields and ripened under the Mediterranean sun, its taste is far superior to imported varieties. It is a true seasonal delicacy that represents the best of Maltese produce, eagerly awaited by locals each year. Packed with Vitamin A and C, it’s a wonderfully healthy and hydrating fruit. The classic way to enjoy it in Malta is simply sliced and chilled, often served as a refreshing dessert after a summer meal. Its rich flavour also makes it perfect for smoothies or for pairing with savoury items like prosciutto or local ġbejna.
