An European first: Heart shaped Cantaloupe- and watermelons

The fact that we at Rungis can get a bit crazy about heart shaped cucumbers and square watermelons you already know. But today we even take it one step further.

 

From today on, Valentine´s Day, we start with the pre-sale of the very first heart shaped Cantaloupe melons and heart shapes watermelons to ever be sold in Europe. Delivery of this Japanese specialty will take place at Mother’s Day, that’s something you can show up with!

The melons aren’t just pretty to look at, but they also have a very good taste

The melons aren’t just pretty to look at, but they also have a very good taste. The shape is achieved by placing the, not yet completely full grown, melon in a transparant mold. The melon will eventually grow in this mold. The challenge is to make sure the growth won’t be disturbed to much by the mold, allowing the melon to get sweet, soft and aromatic.

Would you like to have this extraordinary melon at your shop, restaurant or in your assortment by Mother’s Day? Place your pre-order now, the number of available melons is limited. You can get in touch with us through bestelling@rungis.nl or 0180 61 78 99. Love is in the air!

Fortunately, there’s a constant supply at Rungis, because we sometimes need three hundred kohlrabi. Not just for De Librije, but also for Bar Senang: fruit and vegetables are wel represented on the menu there too.

Rungis has everything, really everything. And what they don't have, they will arrange for you. They think along. When during a concert of Lady Gaga i want to make freaky dishes, the will find me freaky vegetables.
