Origami Melons

Quantity/Pack:
Seasonality: May - Aug
Origin: USA

Melissa's Origami Cantaloupe may look like a familiar face — tan, netted, and roundly classic on the outside — but crack it open and the difference is immediate. A thinner rind and smaller seed cavity mean more of what matters: dense, deeply orange flesh that's firm, juicy, and intensely aromatic. As Origami Melons ripen, their perfume builds to something almost floral, a sign of their sweetness that’s truly special.

Melissa's Origami Cantaloupe delivers a lush, honeyed flavor layered with subtle floral and musky notes. Origami Cantaloupe has a higher sugar content than standard cantaloupe, making it one of the sweetest cantaloupe varieties available. 

Enjoy sliced and chilled on its own, or pair Origami Cantaloupe with prosciutto and fresh herbs for a simple seasonal starter. Layer into a fruit salad, blend into a chilled agua fresca, or finish with a squeeze of lime and a pinch of Melissa's Chile Lime Seasoning for a bold bite. Seeds are inedible and should be discarded.

Storage: Store whole, uncut Origami Cantaloupe at room temperature until ripe, then refrigerate. Once cut, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3–5 days.
