The Pride of Andhra: Authentic Ulavapadu Banganapalli
Discover the Ulavapadu Banganapalli Mangoes, widely revered as the “King of the South” and the “Gold of Andhra.” Sourced exclusively from the renowned orchards of Ulavapadu in the Nellore district of Andhra Pradesh, these mangoes are famous for their pristine golden skin, massive size, and incredibly thin seed.
While you may find standard Benishan varieties in many local markets, Berrydale Foods distinguishes itself by bringing you the specific Ulavapadu Banganapalli Mangoes, prized for their higher Brix (sweetness) and a completely fiberless pulp that melts in your mouth like sweet cream. Recognized for its unique quality, this variety was granted the Geographical Indication tag.
Why Ulavapadu Mangoes Are Superior
True connoisseurs know that location matters. The unique laterite red soil and humid coastal climate of the Nellore district create the perfect growing conditions for Ulavapadu Banganapalli Mangoes. This specific terroir results in a fruit that is significantly larger and fleshier than Banganapalli harvested from other regions.
When you buy Ulavapadu Banganapalli Mangoes from us, you aren’t just buying fruit; you are buying the result of generations of farming expertise. The fruit is characterized by its distinct, obliquely oval shape and a bright, spotless yellow skin that is thin and edible.

-
Room Temperature: Store the mangoes in the hay-lined box at room temperature. Do not refrigerate them while they are green or firm.
-
The Smell Test: The fruit is ready when it emits a strong, sweet aroma and yields slightly to gentle thumb pressure.

Mango Shrikhand: The firm, non-fibrous pulp holds up beautifully in creamy desserts.

Salads: The texture allows for perfect dicing without the fruit becoming mushy, adding a sweet crunch to summer salads.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the difference between Alphonso and Banganapalli?
While Alphonso is known for its creamy richness, Ulavapadu Banganapalli Mangoes are known for their massive size and firm, meaty flesh. Banganapalli is lighter, milder, and less dense, making it perfect for those who find Alphonso too rich.
When does the season start?
The harvest for Ulavapadu Banganapalli Mangoes typically begins in mid-April and lasts until mid-June. It is a short but sweet season, so we highly recommend placing your orders early to avoid disappointment.
Is the skin edible?
Yes! The skin of the Banganapalli is very thin and significantly less bitter than other varieties. Many locals enjoy eating the fruit with the skin intact for added fiber and texture.
