Baby-Shaped Pears Grow from Trees in China

With the help of fruitmold‘s plastic products, pears shaped like babies are growing from trees on farms in china and being sold at supermarkets in neighboring areas.

With peaceful closed eyes, miniscule nose and mouth and daintily crossed hands, the infantile forms look oddly realistic.

During the fruit’s developmental stages, the farmers apply a frame around the budding pear, which it eventually grows into and realizes its shape. In addition to selling the quirky harvests in nearby markets, the suzhou-based company ships their plastic devices across the globe, so baby-shaped pears — and other produce — can be grown all over the world.

A Chinese farmer cultivates an ordinary kind of fruit but with a mind-boggling twist. It’s by manipulating the growth of pears to have that figure of a baby. The question is how does he do it?

At first glance of the “baby pears”, you may mistake them for little Buddhas, right? One might also be confused in a way if seen on a counter top thinking that they are figurines.

One idea that we can presume is that he’s enclosing the young growing pears in split molds of some sort and waits for them to grow and mature. The pears then get the impressions of the molds. Well, I believe that’s the best possible procedure that I can think of. But, however he does it, it’s really beyond compare.
