Flavour Light and sweet

Texture Creamy and softer than most apples

Use Golden Delicious, like all apples, are suitable for being baked with cinnamon and sugar and made into a pie, a crumble, a cake, a tart, a slice or a sweet little pastry turnover. They are also suitable for being turned into a compote that is excellent with breakfast cereal or yoghurt.

Cooking Tip Invest in an apple corer; fill the well produced with a mixture of walnuts and sultanas, drizzle with honey, bake in a hot oven and serve with a good dollop of cream.

Selection and Storage Choose Golden Delicious that are firm all over and have a smooth, soft golden green skin that is blemish free. Keep in a fruit bowl or refrigerate to extend their freshness  

In Season Available all year round; at their best March to August.
