Mangosteen fruit or known by the scientific name Garcinia mangostana, is a tree that grows in the tropical region. Mangosteen tree is believed to be a native tree from Indonesia, but now also grows in several countries in Southeast Asia such as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam, and also in some areas of Africa. Purple mangosteen fruit is often said as an exotic fruit of Indonesia, even practically as well as the queen of tropical fruit.

Mangosteen fruit consists of three main parts: hard purple skin, edible white meat, and seeds wrapped in meat. The seeds taste very bitter, while the meat has a delicate aroma and texture with a sweet sour taste. The outer shell or the skin of the mangosteen (pericarp) is rather hard, but can be opened easily.
