Ecclessis figs were a type of fruit that could be eaten and were used to decorate desserts. At Dex's Diner, a restaurant on the planet of Coruscant, these figs were used as one of the toppings for the Tibanna split ice cream dessert, along with atomically aerated cream and crushed ettel nuts. The dessert itself was styled after Cloud City on Bespin and included three flavors of Hood family "Bespinian best" ice cream—Denta bean, Trammistan chocolate, and beebleberry. Dexter Jettster, the Besalisk chef and owner of Dex's, considered it a delicious treat and sold it for 3.7 credits until his diner was destroyed during the initial two years of the Galactic Empire's reign.
The initial mention of Ecclessis figs occurred in "Dining at Dex's," an article by Gregory Walker that was published in 2009 within the Hyperspace section of StarWars.com. The name of the fig is a reference to the founder of Cloud City, Ecclessis Figg.
