Aperea (Artocarpus cronus) is a tree fruit from in the fig and mulberry amily (Moraceae). It is one of the rarest fruits in Roblox because most aperea trees do not produce them. It is closely related to the breadfruit and jackfruit, which belong to the same genus.
Aperea was selectively bred by Polybloxians for centuries. The known number of fruits decreased so much that it was considered a legendary fruit and was believed to not exist. Eventually, Andrew the Robloxian found apereas on Kohola during his odyssey and was cured of his illness. He then returned to Bloxburg and began working on cultivating apakanus.
The fruit has a shelf life for four weeks after it ripens into a deep orange coloration.
Aperea is used in Polybloxian cuisine, mainly in Telamonian cuisine (Heahakeia), where it has been present since 18th century, and in Oceanian and Tahitian cuisines, where it became popular after its rediscovery.
