Pixtle

Pixtle is the name given to the processed seed of the mamey sapote (Pouteria sapota), a tropical tree native to Mexico and Central America. The seed is encased within the mamey sapote fruit, which is known for its sweet, creamy flesh. The term "pixtle" comes from the Nahuatl word "pitztli", meaning "bone" or "seed".
