New Zealand fruit experts have unveiled their latest fruit hybrid creation, an apple-like fruit which looks like a pear, the Daily Mail reported.

The rounded fleshy fruit described as a pear disguised as an apple has yet to be given an official name, though some have inevitably dubbed the creation the "papple".

The papple, which is officially a member of the pear family, will go on sale in the UK next week at Marks and Spencer.

The novelty products will cost 1 pound each when they hit the shelves.
