About Calypso Mangoes Calypso™ MANGO
– WE'LL BE
BACK......
Sorry but
you've missed us for
another year - we'll
be back again in
October 2009 - don't
miss us too
musch.....!
Not
all mangoes are
created equal and in
Calypso™ Mangoes you
will find what has
been described as
the ‘perfect mango’
experience -worth
waiting
for!
Calypso™
mangoes give you
what you want from a
mango; they have a
super small seed
which
means they give
you extra
big cheeks!
Their
deliciously sweet
flesh is firm and
fibre-free, so there
are no ‘bits’ to get
stuck in your
teeth and drive you
mad for
hours.
Calypso™
Mangoes are also
very attractive;
with their smooth,
high blush
sun-kissed skin they
have the rich reds,
warm oranges and
subtle yellows of a
perfect
sunset.
The variety
B74, marketed
exclusively under
the Calypso™ brand,
is the first new
mango to be
introduced to
Australian consumers
in 20 years –
specifically bred to
capture the stunning
flavour of
Australia’s famous
Kensington Pride
(Bowen) mango and
combining the
friendly
characteristics of
the Sensation mango,
to create the
Calypso’s™ high
blush colours,
smooth texture, firm
flesh and
impressively small
seed!
Succulent
sweet taste is one
thing, but the
fibre-free dense
flesh of the
Calypso™ makes it
very versatile and
perfect to enjoy any
time, every time.
Once they're back
in season, you can
be tempted at
breakfast with a
Spiced
Calypso™ smoothie.
Warm things
up with a
Calypso™
Mango & fresh
seafood salad for
lunch, then cool
things down with a
Calypso™
Mango Parfait for
desert.
Finish your
day with a
Calypso™
Cocktail, the
perfect partner for
a hot summer
night!
The extra
cheek you’ll find in
a Calypso™ delivers
extra vitamin A, C
and Beta Carotene.
The Calypso™ is also
bursting with
Vitamin E, potassium
and provides a good
source of fibre – no
wonder the Calypso™
looks and feels so
good inside and
out.
Calypso™
mangoes are found in
the produce
department of major
supermarkets and in
your favourite green
grocer.
