They are solid like a rock u have to give it a while for them to thaw or ‘ull break a tooth !they are very good for a very hot day.frozen it will cool u off .

Nice package
weee.12964183
The fruit has small seeds and thick flesh, but it's not tasty; it's bland and tasteless.
User0613
This frozen lychee is absolutely delicious and a great addition to the freezer. The fruits are wonderfully sweet, juicy, and arrive looking very fresh, red, and perfectly ripe. Eating them slightly semi-thawed makes for an amazing, refreshing tropical treat on a warm day. You get excellent quality and a generous amount of fruit in this 2 lb bag, making it a fantastic value. Will definitely repurchase.
MonicaRodriguez
This is my first time buying lychees. They arrived nicely packaged in their box, and the fruit looks to be in good condition. Now I just need to try them to see what they taste like.

The fruit is perfectly sweet and juicy, with a soft, refreshing texture. The syrup isn’t too heavy—just the right amount of sweetness to bring out the natural flavor of the rambutan. Every piece tastes fresh and tender, and it’s great on its own or added to desserts. If you enjoy tropical fruit, this is definitely worth trying. I’ll be buying it again for sure!
