Bubblegum Plums - Clinton Bailey Market

We got what was called bubblegum plums at the Clinton Bailey farmers market on Saturday. If you haven't been there you really have to go this Saturday. Prime harvest season, so much stuff, so cheap it will blow your mind.

Apparently these plums are marketed as bubblegum plums but I read the hybrid that has been around for a while.

Toka is known as the bubblegum plum and has been around for a very long time. The fruit is very nice if properly ripened. Its prunus Americana (Native American plum) x prunus simoni (Chinese plum apricot.



Its unbelievable how much they smell like bubblegum. Like bazooka joe style pink bubblegum. My guess is whoever invented bubblegum used this as a base.
