Cosmic Crisp® apples are a cross between the ‘Enterprise’ and ‘Honeycrisp’. These large, juicy apples have a remarkably firm and crisp texture.
The Cosmic Crisp® flavor profile is the perfect balance of sweet and tart, making it ideal for snacking, baking, cooking, juicing or any other way you like to enjoy apples. Bakers will find that the Cosmic Crisp® maintains its texture and color in sweet treats.
Cultivated with higher levels of acidity and sugars, the Cosmic Crisp® is naturally slow to brown. It’s your charcuterie go-to and your new favorite apple for packing slices in lunch boxes!
The 2021 Cosmic Crisp® crop should yield near year-round availability and consumers can expect the volume and availability of these delicious apples to continue to grow exponentially for the next 5-10 years.
Timing
Harvest of Cosmic Crisp® apples takes place at the same time as Red Delicious (September-October) and they are shipped to retailers beginning in early November.
