After you receive your Sooper order, sniff the starting of the stem of the mango & gently squeeze. If it gives in slightly and has a fruity-musky mango odour then its ripe. Before they are ripened, mangoes shouldn’t be refrigerated, they will begin to ripen, becoming sweeter and softer over many days. Place the mangoes in a paper bag or leave it inside the SooperMango 3KG corrugated box with hay to speed up maturation, and store for approximately 2 days or until the mangos are ripe.
Mangoes should be transferred to the refrigerator until ripe, which will slow the ripening process. Whole, mature mangoes can be kept in the refrigerator for up to five days. Mangoes can be sliced, cubed and stored in an airtight jar for several days in the refrigerator or for up to six months in the freezer.
