    The simplest way to cut a mango is to cut about 1 inch to the side of the centre point - that way you should miss the stone.

    Then take the portion of mango and slice down to just above the skin lengthways and then crossways. So that you have a sort of X's & O's pattern. Put your thumbs on either side of the edge of the portion and press upwards from underneath on the skin and flip the mango piece inside out. Then cut the cubes off.

    Sounds more complicated than it actually is & you get nice equal portions if you cut it right.

    The cutters are great but you still need to cut them into cubes as eoineo said.I got mine from a farmers market.
