The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has a variety of fruit that can be used for cooking different recipes or consuming for more health. They’re a valuable item to fill up your inventory and for you to go out of your way to find.

Players must replenish their energy meter when taking damage in the game by eating a cooked meal or one of the raw ingredients from around the game world, such as an apple from a tree. However, these items are scattered throughout Hyrule, and tracking them down can take a bit of time. This guide covers where to find all fruit locations in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

Players can find fruit everywhere in Tears of the Kingdom. It appears in multiple locations, pretty much everywhere in Hyrule, where it can be picked up as players explore the world and complete quests. Whenever we see fruit on the ground, we grab as much as we can, because no one knows what’s lurking around the corner. Most of the time it tends to be a tricky Battle Talus in our experience.

These are all of the fruit players can expect to find in Tears of the Kingdom, where they can find them, and their many effects.

Beginner Fruit Fusing Tips for TotK

One aspect of the game that differs widely from Breath of the Wild is the ability to Fuse items to weapons. When it comes to fruit, there are some that have a distinct advantage over other items such as stones, especially in the early game. Those wanting to deal solid damage should stock up on Fire Fruit, since they deal additional fire damage and cause an explosion when fused to arrows, found just outside of Lookout Landing. This is the first settlement Link will find when he lands on Hyrule.

Using these with arrows can set wild grasses and leaves aflame, torch an enemy, and act as a lighting agent when crafting things like Hot Air Balloons. They are an essential part of the early game equipment kit in TotK.
