The Miracle fruit

This is the Miracle Fruit website of Curtis Mozie.
"At 'flavor tripping' parties, guests eat a berry known as miracle fruit that temporarily rewires taste buds, turning sour flavors sweet."

So said The New York Times in May 2008 in their article A Tiny Fruit That Tricks the Tongue. The story also appeared in the Global Edition's Travel & Dining section: International Herald Tribune.
Because of the unique nature of the fruit, the story was picked up by a number of publications. Combined with the video posted on The New York Times website, and a number of blogs, a 'buzz' was created. That buzz has resulted in an overwhelming demand for Miracle Fruit. The video below on YouTube was watched more than 10,000 times in the week following the article.

As a completely natural product, grown on trees, availability is dependent on weather. Rest assured all orders will be filled in the order they are received, and paid for.

Due to the backlog in supply, it could be several weeks before we can ship your order. If you sent us an email, we're working on responding, so hang in there. The fruit is worth the wait.

Change Begins In Your Head
We think of the Miracle Fruit as a symbol of change. It will help you gain a new perspective, even if for only a few hours. Be patient. We're harvesting the fruit as quickly as it ripens on a daily basis. Unfortunately, it is not like an orange grove or vineyard. Each miracle fruit tree provides a few dozen berries at a time. So, if you want to be among the first to know when we are able to ship more Miracle Fruit, you'll want to join our Priority List! We will send an update as soon as we are able to take care of current customers.


My farm in Fort Lauderdale, Florida is the only farm in the United States able to produce a commercial volume of Miracle Fruit. We add new trees every week. Frankly, we just were not prepared for the incredible interest in Miracle Fruit.
For the past 12 years, I've personally planted and attended to thousands of trees, improving my growing technique in the process.


For those of you located in the New York City area, you will be able to purchase Miracle Fruit at the Garden of Eden Stores (www.edengourmet.com) in Manhattan and New Jersey as soon as the fruit is ready to ship. Join our Priority List, or keep checking out Garden of Eden.

I know you'll enjoy the Miracle Fruit experience.

Thank you for your patience...Curtis

How Sweet it is!

For several years, I've been cultivating my 'field of dreams.'

The miracle fruit is an amazing wonder of nature, and I'm on a mission to inform people about it's 'magic.'

The Miracle Fruit is native to Ghana, a dynamic country in West Africa. It's a great container plant, if you like to grow your own fruit.

28 May 2008
I was in New York last week where the 'Supreme Commander' hosted a 'Flavor Tripping Party.' I was there because I'm his supplier. The New York Times was there because they thought it would be interesting for their Dining & Wine section.

They posted a video which shows several of the 40+ guests on their website and a detailed story. The response was amazing.

Adam Gollner's new book, The Fruit Hunters was released during the week, as well. Adam did a great job with the book which 'features' the Miracle Fruit. Click on the image to find out more about the book. You can buy a copy on Amazon.

It's called the 'Miracle Fruit' because it can alter the taste of sour items. Miracle Fruit is also easier to say, and spell, than it's official name - synsepalum dulcificum.
Although the plant produces fruit throughout the year, there are occasions when shipping might take more than a week, so only place an order with the understanding that the Miracle Fruit will be shipped upon availability.

The minimum order is 30 of the fresh fruit. Click the 'Buy Miracle Fruit' page for information.

We normally ship via the U.S. Postal Service, however other delivery options are available.


The Miracle Fruit is a bright red, oval-shaped berry approximately 2 to 3 cm long containing a single seed. Click this image for greater detail.

Although not sweet itself, when a single fruit is eaten and the fleshy pulp allowed to coat the taste buds of the tongue and inside of the mouth, an extraordinary effect occurs.

The fruit enables you to eat a slice of lemon or lime without wincing. The marvelous aroma and inherent sweetness of the citrus remains but the sourness is almost completely covered. The effect remains for approximately 30 minutes, or more.

Miracle Fruits Exchange Inc. is an American-owned and operated farm supplying retail customers. I am the owner and grower. I have been involved in the growth and development of the Miracle Fruit for more than a decade.
