FOTD #060 : white cloud ears! (tremella fuciformis)

the white cloud ears fungus (also called snow fungus, snow ear, silver ear fungus & white jelly mushroom) is a parasitic fungus in the family tremellaceae. it is widespread, especially in the tropics, & grows on the dead branches of broadleaf trees !!

the big question : can i bite it?? yes :-) this fungus is edible (traditionally used in sweet dishes), has medicinal uses, & has history in asian beauty products.

t. fuciformis description :

"fruit bodies are gelatinous, watery white, up to 7.5 centimetres (3 inches) across (larger in cultivated specimens), & composed of thin but erect, seaweed-like, branching fronds, often crisped at the edges."
