Apple Varieties


BRAEBURN

This crisp apple blends sweetness &

tartness just right for snacks & salads.

Also great for baking, applesauce 

and for freezing.


CORTLAND

This attractive apple is favored for

cooking, cider & fresh-eating.  

It has a sweet-tart flavor.  Its flesh is white

& is very slow to brown, making

it ideal for salads.

 

EMPIRE

A tart but very flavorful, very crisp 

apple that stays hard for months in 

refrigeration. Empires are dark red in 

color & are great for eating or

baking & the slices do not get to 

soft.  Great for making 

caramel apples.

 

FORTUNE

Slightly spicy flavor.  

Cream-colored flesh.  This apple

Is firm, juicy & crisp.

A favorite for fresh-eating, pies

& applesauce.

 

FUJI

One of my favorite eating apples after 

Christmas.  The flavor gets stronger

& is great for baking, although its 

slices will not get soft or release any 

juices.  You might want to blend 

another apple like a Golden 

when baking.  Fuji will easily stay very 

hard & extra sweet until taken out

   of refrigeration.

 

GALA

Gala has a wonderful super sweet 

flavor with crisp, firm, juicy flesh.

Gala stores well for months in 

refrigeration.  Gala is great for eating

& baking because the slices do not 

cook down hardly at all.  

GINGER GOLD

Ginger Gold is crisp, sweet &

juicy.  This apple is a early season

favorite.  It may be the best of the

early season fresh-eating apple.

 

GOLDEN DELICIOUS

Goldens are bright yellow & large in size. 

Goldens are great eating, applesauce

& baking, while the slices keep their shape.   

Goldens & Jonathans combined

make for a great pie.  In storage this 

apple stays sweet, but tends to get soft,

but not to soft to enjoy.

 

 

GRANNY SMITH

Granny Smith is one of the later 

varieties.  With a firm, crisp texture,

this dark green apple is an excellent 

choice for caramel apples.  Its

extreme tartness balances the 

sweetness of the caramel.  Great for

Salads & just plain eating.

Time to PUCKER UP!

This is a solid green cooking 

apple.  If you like a tart eating

apple try the greening.  Makes

an excellent apple pie.
