Safeda mango, often referred to as Banganapalli, is a well-known mango variety primarily cultivated in the state of Andhra Pradesh, India. It is one of the largest mango varieties available. The mango has an elongated shape with a yellowish-green skin when unripe, which turns golden yellow as it ripens. Safeda mangoes are often referred to as the "Queen of Mangoes" because they are considered to be one of the finest varieties of mango in the world. Safeda mangoes are also a good source of vitamins A and C, as well as potassium. The name "Safeda" comes from the Hindi word for "white". This is because the flesh of the Safeda mango is a pale yellow color. Safeda mangoes are known for their firm, fiberless flesh and a sweet, mild flavor. They are favored for their size and rich aroma. Safeda mangoes are popularly used in making mango-based desserts, milkshakes, and juices.
