Golden Delicious

The dry, warm climate of Eastern Washington is perfect for this delicate yellow beauty. Mellow and sweet, Goldens are the perfect all-purpose apple - great for eating out of hand, in baking and fresh in salads. Once cut, the flesh of Golden Delicious stays white longer than other apples, and it maintains its flavour and shape when cooked.

Quick History – Of uncertain parentage, Golden Delicious originated in Clay County, West Virginia and was introduced to the market in 1914. Some suspect that the chance seedling can be traced to Golden Reinette and Grimes Golden apple varieties.

Availability – Harvested in September, Goldens are available year-round.
