A fruit juice extraction peeler cup and intermeshable pair thereof (100, 150) having a geometry allowing faster juicing rates with fewer misfeeds of fruit. Distal ends (158) of the blades (106) collectively define a shape, referred to as a Mendesaddle shape (160), including lateral arcs (112) connecting a top opening (114) for entry of a whole fruit (10) and a bottom opening (116) that is smaller than the top opening for exit of a fruit core (12). An interior contour of the cup includes a more distal loading region (332) and a more rearward linear compression region (334) providing effective juice extraction. The top and bottom openings may be formed entirely in the loading region. An exterior contour of the cup includes a horizontal portion (144) proximate the top opening effective to reduce an upward trajectory of the fruit as it approaches the opening.
