This fun avocado-shaped design will securely hold up to 6 avocados in individual pockets. Gone are the sad days of avocados rolling off counters and being thrown into large fruit bowls to do battle with squishy tomatoes and heavyweight grapefruits. It's time to start giving your avocados the love they deserve.
Made of solid maple wood, with a center "pit" made of walnut. Holder measures 7" by 10-1/4" at its maximum, and is approximately 3/4" thick.
After extensive laboratory testing I can attest that this holder should comfortably accommodate most shapes and sizes of Hass avocados (and Hass-esque varieties). And by "laboratory testing" I actually just mean a lot of avocado purchases and subsequent guacamole batches. Note this holder will not work well for larger Florida-style avocados.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
This holder is finished with a food-safe blend of mineral oil and beeswax. If necessary it can be lightly hand-washed and should be dried immediately after. As with cutting boards, the finish can be maintained over time with any of the many available cutting board oil blends/conditioners.
