Our white sweet corn is called “Fruit corn”, which means eat the sweet corn like a fruit. Just eat our sweet corn raw, without cooking. You can taste the most original and fresh taste of corn. Our sweet corn is sweet, juicy, and crunchy. Our customers after eating our white sweet corn, don’t want the bi-color (yellow and white) sweet corn. So we just plant the white sweet corn and no more plant the bi-color pearl corn. Our customers will come back because they cannot find the same taste as our sweet corn anywhere.
Here is the list of the aspect of why our Cameron sweet corns are different from others:
Normal corn seed for a bottle costs about RM50-RM100, but our white sweet corn seeds have cost us over one thousand just a small package. The cost of corn seed is 10 times more expensive than the normal corn. We import the white sweet corn seeds from America. We import the best quality sweet corn seed from America that you cannot find on the market. We are the only one plant this type of white sweet corn in Malaysia.
2. Growing Period
Sweet corn will take 100 days to grow to get ready for harvest on Cameron Highlands, but it just takes 50-55 days if sweet corn is planted in Ipoh, Kelantan, or another hot place. The longer the growing period, the sweet corn taste will better.
3. Weather
Everybody knows Cameron Highlands is one of the highest mountains in west Malaysia. Cameron Highlands has a cool temperature of 15-25’C throughout the year. Cool weather makes all plants grow slowly. Cool weather will let the sweet corn sweeter and juicy.
4. Hot Sun
Cameron Highlands is located at the mountain, the hot sun is less compared with Kuala Lumpur. The majority of the year in Cameron is cloudy or rainy, seldom got hot sun. The humidity is low here. Our sweet corn husks are light green because of the hot sun not much. For those corn plants at a hot place like Ipoh, Kelantan, corn husks are a dark green color.
5. Water
The majority of the farm at Cameron is using water from the mountain. We found the mouth of spring from the mountain and connect to our farm. The water comes from the stone inside the earth, not supplied by TNB. The water is fresh and clean. Our white sweet corn got much water inside and it tastes very juicy.
6. Fertilizer
We make some enzymes to fertilizer our sweet corn. It is considered half organic.
Many customers ask why our white sweet corn is sweet like honey? I think this is because of our fertilizer and water. We stop pesticides one month before harvest, all our customers feel safe when eating white sweet corn raw, without cooking. The taste of our sweet corn is the best, hard to explain. Once you taste it, you never forgot.
Our customers will not buy corn at another stall after tasting our white sweet corn. If you do not believe please come to our stall to taste it! 🙂

The History of Sweet Corn: From Ancient Times to Modern Cuisine Sweet corn is a…
Sweet corn is a beloved staple in many kitchens, known for its crisp texture and naturally sweet flavor. To enjoy it at its best, it's important to know how to choose and store it properly. Here are some tips to ensure your sweet corn stays fresh and delicious. Choosing the Perfect Sweet Corn Look for Green Husks: When picking sweet corn, start by checking the husks. They should be green color and tightly wrapped around the cob. If you notice any brown or dried-out husks, it's a sign that the corn isn't fresh. Feel for Firm Kernels: Give the corn a gentle squeeze through the husk. The kernels should feel firm and plump. If they’re mushy or shriveled, put that cob back – it’s past its prime. Check the Silk: The silk (those thread-like strands coming out of the top) should be slightly sticky to the touch and look fresh. Depending on the variety of sweet corn, the color can range from light to dark, so focus more on its condition rather than the specific color. Check for Insects: Look for any small holes or damaged areas on the husk. These could be signs of insect infestation. A clean, undamaged husk is what you’re aiming for. Storing Sweet Corn Refrigerate Immediately: Corn starts to lose its sweetness as soon as it’s picked, so refrigerate it as soon as possible to preserve its flavor. According to the University of Illinois Extension, corn can lose up to 50% of its sugar within 24 hours if not refrigerated. Keep the Husks On: Store the corn with the husks still on. They act as a natural protective barrier and help retain moisture. Reader testimonial: “I’ve always kept the husks on my sweet corn before storing it, and it’s remained fresh and flavorful for several days.” Use a Plastic Bag: Place the ears of corn in a plastic bag to keep them from drying out. Make sure the bag is closed tightly. Freeze for Long-Term Storage: If you can't use the corn within a few days, remove the…

Hi is your corn seed gmo or hybrid?
We are planting the first generation of corn seed, not the son or grandson species. Our corn seed only can plant one time, not like the china can make it dry and plant again.
我们从美国进口的玉米种子是一代交配，意思就是种子只可以种一次而已。不像中国那些可以把玉米晒干再种，我们用的玉米种子不可以这样。
