Nutrition Information

Sapo Melon is naturally hydrating and a good source of potassium, an essential electrolyte that supports normal muscle function and fluid balance.
It also provides vitamin C and small amounts of dietary fibre. With its high water content and refreshing sweetness, Sapo Melon is a lovely choice for everyday hydration and post-exercise refreshment.

Storage & Enjoyment

Storage

Sapo Melons are harvested ripe and ready to enjoy, so no additional ripening is required.

Store the whole melon in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. In Singapore's warm and humid climate, refrigeration is recommended to maintain its freshness and crisp texture.

Once cut, keep the melon refrigerated in an airtight container and enjoy within 2–3 days for the best quality.

Enjoyment

• Wash the rind thoroughly before slicing. Cut the melon lengthwise, scoop out the seeds and remove the rind.
• Enjoy chilled to appreciate its naturally sweet, juicy flesh and refreshing crunch.
• Sapo Melon is delightful on its own, added to fruit salads or blended into a refreshing smoothie
