Prickly Pear: Naturally Sweet, Cactus-Cool

A vibrant fruit born from the desert, packed with flavor, nutrients, and tradition.

SWEET FROM THE SPINES

Tunas, the Bold Fruit of the Cactus

Description: Prickly pears—known as tunas—grow from the nopal cactus and are known for their striking color, juicy flesh, and naturally sweet flavor. Whether deep red, green, or purple, tunas offer a refreshing, hydrating bite with cultural roots deeply tied to Latin American heritage. Often enjoyed fresh, juiced, or used in desserts, this fruit delivers both tradition and wellness in every serving. At Latin Specialties, we harvest our tunas at peak ripeness to ensure a clean, sweet taste and ideal texture.

Sweet, refreshing, and full of history—tunas are the desert’s vibrant gift.
