We Are Loving Ambrosia™ Apples

Disclosure: This is part of a compensated campaign. I received free Ambrosia™ apples to try as well. However all opinions are 100% my own. I truly love these apples!!

Have you heard about Ambrosia™ apples? We hadn’t either until recently when we were given the chance to try some out and I am telling you all that I have found my new favorite apple. Ambrosia™ apples are ten years old which makes them still a relatively newcomer and is American grown. It’s name means “Food of the Gods” and are fast becoming the darling of the apple world.  Thanks to a very strong consumer demand there are new Ambrosia™ orchards being planted in Washington State which will most likely double or even triple production over the next decade. As a consumer who loves these apples now I can tell you that I am thrilled by that news.

We ate these just as apples but they can be used for baking and they are picked at the peak of their maturity rather than based on their external color. They are actually red and yellow rather than one solid color but they tend to be blemish free. We had no bad spots in the apples and they sat for about two days before we ate them. They were very sweet with a glorious honey scent. I mean I could have just smelled the box they came in all day.

 I love how crisp these are and if you are looking for a snack that satisfies your sweet tooth and that crunchy urge that you have then these are those apples. The one thing I love the most is how much the kids love them! They normally don’t eat apples without caramel or something on it. These they ate plain and I could not be happier about it. So now my children are apple eaters! Thank you Ambrosia™ apples.
