Fruit on the Prickly Pear Cacti is ripe. This is what they make cactus jelly out of.
I've never made it myself......My mom used to make it out of the fruit, sugar, lemon juice and pectin.
Occasionally I buy it at the farmers market.
Oh, I have to go check my cacti plant and see if there is fruit on it. It is so good. You can make fruit drinks with it too. Nice photos. Have a great week.
