Buy Fresh Fruit Online — Alphonso Mango, Kesar Mango & Everyday Fruit
Fresh fruit is the part of the grocery run that never travels well, so GoDirect delivers it same-day across the Greater Toronto Area — picked, packed and at your door instead of rolling around a car boot. Build the week's fruit bowl in one go, from everyday apples and bananas to the mango varieties Indian households wait all year for.
Mango season is the moment that matters. We carry Alphonso Mango and Kesar Mango — the two varieties that define summer across India. Alphonso is the one Maharashtra is known for: intensely aromatic, smooth and low in fibre, best eaten simply sliced. Kesar takes its name from saffron for its deep golden pulp, and is the variety associated with Gujarat and the mango season there; it is sweet and pulpy, which is exactly what aamras, mango lassi and shrikhand want. When the season is on, this is a shelf worth checking weekly.
The everyday shelf covers Red Delicious and Granny Smith green apples, bananas, seedless green and red grapes, Bartlett pears, large navel oranges and a navel orange juice pack for anyone who juices at home. Avocado is here too, and pomegranate — the anaar whose seeds go over chaat, raita and salads across North India. Alongside them sit the sweeter, juicier picks: strawberry, blueberry and kiwi boxes, pineapple, cantaloupe and medium-to-large watermelon.
If you would rather not pick item by item, there are ready-made options — a 6-fruit combo, a juice combo and a fruit basket that comes every Saturday, which is a straightforward way to keep a house stocked for guests. Fruit is sold the way it is actually bought: by the piece, in 4, 5, 6 and 12-piece packs, by the pound and in 3 lb packs, or as a box or basket. We also stock produce carrying the Foodland Ontario mark, alongside Dole and Little Bear.
A practical tip on ripening: keep bananas, avocado, mango and pears out on the counter until they give slightly to a gentle press, then move them to the fridge to hold them there. A firm mango will ripen faster wrapped in newspaper or buried in a bowl of rice, the way it is done at home. Berries and grapes go straight into the fridge unwashed and are best rinsed just before eating. Watermelon, cantaloupe and pineapple can sit out whole, but refrigerate them once cut.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Alphonso and Kesar mango?
Alphonso, the variety Maharashtra is famous for, is prized for its strong perfume and smooth, low-fibre flesh — most people eat it plain in slices so nothing gets in the way. Kesar, the variety associated with Gujarat, has a saffron-toned pulp and a sweeter, softer texture that makes it the usual pick for aamras, mango lassi and desserts. If you want to eat it, choose Alphonso Mango; if you want to blend it, choose Kesar Mango.
How do I make aamras at home?
Aamras is the Gujarati and Maharashtrian summer staple — ripe mango pulp, and very little else. Squeeze the pulp out of well-ripened Kesar Mango by hand, or blend the flesh smooth, then loosen it with a little milk or water and sweeten only if the fruit needs it. A pinch of cardamom or saffron is optional. Serve it chilled with hot puri, and make it the day you eat it.
Which fruit should I use for fruit chaat?
The Delhi and Punjab style of fruit chaat is built on contrast — something crisp, something soft, something sharp. Banana, apple, pomegranate and pineapple is a reliable base, with grapes or strawberry if you want more sweetness. Cut it just before serving, dress it with lemon juice, black salt and a little chaat masala, and keep the pomegranate for the top so it stays whole.
How is fruit sold — by weight or by piece?
Both. Some fruit is sold by the piece or in 4, 5, 6 and 12-piece packs, some by the pound or in 3 lb packs, and berries, kiwi and blueberries come by the box. Combo packs and a Saturday fruit basket are also available.
How should I store fruit once it arrives?
Let bananas, mango, avocado and pears ripen on the counter, then refrigerate to hold them. Keep berries and grapes in the fridge unwashed and rinse just before eating. Melons and pineapple can stay out whole but should go in the fridge once cut.
