Pineapple quinces are medium to large fruits, averaging 7 to 10 centimeters in diameter, and have a uniform, round to ovate shape with a small and curved, raised neck. The skin is firm, smooth, thin, and delicate, easily bruised, and has a bumpy texture, ripening from green to a golden, lemon yellow when mature. It is important to note that the skin will remain firm when ripe and will develop a musky, tropical, and floral scent with notes of lemon and apple. Underneath the surface, the flesh is white, dense, and dry, encasing a central core filled with dark brown seeds. Pineapple quinces have a sweet-tart, mildly astringent flavor when raw, softening in texture when cooked, developing deeper fruity undertones reminiscent of the tartness of oranges and limes, the acidity of pineapples, and the sweet taste of pears and apples.
