It is spelled Kumquat.
The kumquat or cumquat is a small fruit-bearing tree in the genus Fortunella. Its fruit (which is also called "kumquat") closely resembles those of the related genus Citrus, and, like that genus, it is also classified in the flowering plant family Rutaceae.

A kumquat is a small citrus fruit that is orange in color and about the size of a ping pong. They grow in the south and they are really quite good. You don't even have to peel them to eat them!

I think you mean the following:

A cumquat is:
Any of several trees or shrubs of the genus Fortunella, having small, edible, orangelike fruit.
The fruit of these plants, having an acid pulp and a thin, edible rind. It is the smallest of the citrus fruits.
