Horn Plantains - Yellow

Local delivery only — Brisbane & Wide Bay. Ripe plantains don't survive the courier trip, so we can't send these to Sydney, Melbourne or anywhere outside our local delivery areas. Ordering from interstate? Choose our green horn plantains instead — they ship by courier to QLD, NSW, the ACT and VIC, and ripen at home in 5–7 days.

Premium Class 1 Quality Features

Our yellow horn plantains meet the highest quality standards. Every box contains extra-large, hand-selected plantains with perfect yellow colouring that indicates optimal ripeness and sweetness. Premium Class 1 quality ensures excellent consistency, superior taste, and ideal texture for all your cooking needs. These plantains are ready to use immediately - no waiting for ripening required.

Nutritional Benefits

Yellow horn plantains are rich in complex carbohydrates, providing sustained energy for active lifestyles. High in potassium, vitamin C, vitamin B6, and dietary fiber, they support heart health, immune function, and digestive wellness. The natural sugars developed during ripening make yellow plantains sweeter than their green counterparts while maintaining beneficial nutrients. A wholesome addition to any balanced diet.

Culinary Versatility

Ripe yellow horn plantains excel in sweet preparations. Create authentic Caribbean maduros by pan-frying slices until caramelized and golden. Make crispy sweet plantain chips perfect for snacking. Bake whole plantains for tender, naturally sweet side dishes. Incorporate into plantain desserts, fritters, or traditional recipes from Caribbean, African, Pacific Islander, and Latin American cuisines. Their creamy texture when cooked makes them perfect for mashing, stuffing, or grilling.

Ideal for Commercial Use

Restaurants and caterers throughout Brisbane rely on our 12kg boxes for consistent quality and reliable supply. The bulk size offers excellent value while ensuring you always have premium yellow plantains ready for your menu. Perfect for high-volume Caribbean restaurants, African eateries, catering businesses, and food service operations.

Getting it to you

Ripe yellow plantains are local delivery or pickup only — they do not survive courier transit, so we don't send them that way. Local delivery runs on Wednesdays across Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, Moreton Bay up to Caboolture, and a defined list of surrounding postcodes. Order any day of the week and your box lands the following Wednesday. Pickup is available by appointment from 35 McCullagh Crescent, Narangba.

If you need plantains sent interstate, order our green horn plantains instead — green travels well and ships by courier to Queensland, New South Wales, the ACT and Victoria.
