Why Egyptian Figs
Egyptian red figs (Bardakci and Sultani varieties) are prized for their deep purple-red skin, sweet pink flesh,
and intense fig flavor. Il Mondo IQF figs are individually quick-frozen whole or halved for dessert
manufacturing, gourmet retail, and Mediterranean cuisine applications. Egypt's climate produces figs with high
Brix (15°+) and natural aromatic intensity.
