Product details
Desi apple is a naturally developed Indian variety that captures the essence of freshness and local taste. Unlike imported apples, which travel long distances before reaching consumers, desi apples are cultivated in Indian gardens and are freshly supplied to markets, especially in areas such as Gujarat. This ensures not only better taste but also better quality and freshness with every bite.
Characterized by their crisp texture and juicy pulp, desi apples provide a fresh sweetness balanced with a mild touch. This natural harmony of tastes makes them highly enjoyable as a nutritious snack, while also versatile enough to complement a wide range of recipes. Their crunch combines the vibrancy to fruits and green salads, while their subtle tangs increase when freshly pressed juices and smoothies. In Indian homes, the use of desi apples often aid both nutrition and taste to traditional desserts, from kheer and pudding to fruit custard.
Beyond their delightful taste, desi apples provide excellent nutritional value. They are rich in dietary fiber, which supports digestion, and contains essential vitamins such as vitamin C for immunity and vitamin A for eye health. Naturally present antioxidants in apples also contribute to overall welfare, protecting the body from oxidative stress.
