The Gingerbread Plum is the large, edible, wild fruit of the Parinari curatellifolia (Bambara: Tutu), an evergreen tropical tree in western Africa. Usually red or yellow, the sugary plum size fruit has a crunch like an apple and a taste similar to a strawberry. The nut inside is often roasted and eaten like an almond. The wood of the tree can be polished to a bright luster and is used in furniture making, but don't eat that. - AsNotedIn
