    • Fejoa’s are a fruit that is plentiful in Autumn in New Zealand. They are green, oval shaped, about the size of a hen’s egg or bigger, and the flesh is creamy white and has a strong and pretty pine perfume. People either love them or hate them! They are delicious.

  1. Made the Feijoa sponge with sliced apple.It was so yummy.My family was looking for more.Would recommend.It’s easy for kids to make aswell with adult supervision.
