Unusually, the chunky whitish fruit pulp is very dry, but when soaked and rinsed with water the dry pulp quickly dissolves to expose the dark brown seeds. Size compared to West Africa CFA coins. Measured at 1.2 cm - 1.3 cm in length. Brown in color overall, any white patches still visible are remnants of undissolved pulp.
