SUGAR APPLE
Sweet sop is another name for Sugar Apple (Annona squamosa). It is native to the Caribbean, Central America and northern South America, but is also very popular in Southern Asia. It is a relative of the Custard Apple, and is sometimes confused with it because in India the sweet sop is also called custard apple.
The Annona family also includes soursop (guanabana), custard apple (bullock's heart), cherymoya, atemoya, alligator apple (Florida), illama and soncoya.
