Moro di Caneva is an Italian fig variety with dark purple to near-black skin when ripe. The flesh is reported to be deep red or dark purple, sweet, and jam-like in texture. The fruit is medium-sized with a somewhat oblong or pear shape. It is a breba and main-crop producer, with the main crop ripening in late summer to autumn. The variety is documented primarily from the Veneto region and may be known locally by alternate names. It is sometimes confused with other dark Italian varieties such as Moro di Caltanissetta or Melanzana, though Moro di Caneva is generally described as having a slightly different flavor profile and ripening window.
