Bambinella (Maltese June Pear) per kg

A true Maltese gem, the Bambinella is a small, round pear, often no bigger than a golf ball, that is harvested in June. It has a unique, crisp texture much like an apple, and a wonderfully sweet, fragrant flavour unlike any other pear. Sold by the kilogram, this is a special, seasonal treat that is eagerly anticipated by locals every year and enjoyed as a delicious, crunchy snack. Its name, which translates to “little doll,” perfectly captures its charming and diminutive nature. For many in Malta, the taste of Bambinella is the taste of childhood summers. They are best eaten fresh, skin and all, to appreciate their unique texture and flavour. They are a healthy snack, providing fibre and vitamins. By purchasing this product from ta-malta.com, you are supporting local farmers and helping to preserve a unique piece of Maltese agricultural heritage.
