3-syllable Fruits that contain D

List of 3-syllable Fruits that contain D

1

Blood Orange

Citrus × sinensis

A red-fleshed orange variety from Sicily and Spain — its dramatic red color comes from anthocyanins triggered by cold winter nights, a chemistry trick most citrus regions can't replicate.

2

Buddha's Hand

Citrus medica var. sarcodactylis

A bizarre yellow citrus that splits into long finger-like segments — all peel and pith with no juice or pulp, used purely for fragrance and zest.

3

Cempedak

Artocarpus integer

A close cousin of jackfruit grown across Malaysia and Indonesia — smaller, sweeter, more pungent, and rarely seen outside Southeast Asia because of its overpowering smell.

4

Cloudberry

Rubus chamaemorus

A rare orange-amber Arctic berry that grows in remote bogs across the boreal north — Scandinavia's most prized wild berry, with no commercial cultivation despite decades of attempts.

5

Dragon Fruit

Hylocereus undatus, H. costaricensis, H. megalanthus

The visually striking fruit of a Central American climbing cactus — bright pink-red shell with green spiky scales, opening to white or magenta flesh dotted with tiny black seeds.

6

Durian

Durio zibethinus

A spiky-shelled Southeast Asian fruit with intensely pungent custard-textured flesh — banned from many hotels and public transit in Asia for its smell, but called the "King of Fruits" where it's eaten.

7

Honeydew

Cucumis melo (Inodorus group)

A pale-green melon with smooth white-yellow rind and pale-green flesh, milder and sweeter than cantaloupe — a summertime hydration fruit.

8

Mandarine

Citrus reticulata

A small loose-skinned orange citrus — the original ancestor species behind clementines, satsumas, tangerines, and most modern winter snack-citrus varieties.

9

Redcurrant

Ribes rubrum

A small, jewel-like red berry — translucent, intensely tart, and a classic Northern European garden fruit used in jellies, sauces for game, and showcase dessert garnishes.

10

Tamarind

Tamarindus indica

A sticky brown pod-fruit with intensely tart-sweet pulp — fundamental to Indian, Southeast Asian, Mexican, and Caribbean cuisines, providing sour acidity in pad thai, chutneys, and chamoy.
