Burdekin plums nutritional value is vitamin C, minerals, and dietary fibre containing nearly 5 times the antioxidant content of blueberries.

Burdekin Plum Season is December through to April. When ripe, the plums can be eaten fresh, sliced and added to fruit salads, turned into jams, jellies and wine. They can be cooked down to make sauces or diced and used to make gravy for meats such as venison, kangaroo, and emu. They also work well as a substitute for rhubarb in fruit pies.

The taste ranges from mild, sweet-tart to tart.
