Honeycrisp Apple. Extra Fancy Vs Fancy
Question:
You offer Extra
Fancy and Fancy
Grade and Utility
Grade in Honeycrisp what is the difference?
Answer: These are USDA grades and the reason we offer two
grades in Honeycrisp is due to the fact that Honeycrisp is more
expensive. This is to give our Honeycrisp Crunchers a break in the
price.
Extra
Fancy is what we would send to the Chain Store and is perfect
color, shape and condition. These would be utilized for a gift.
Fancy
Grade could have a minor blemish (never broken skin), lower in
color or be misshapen. It is of our opinion that if you are
ordering them for you and the family then save yourself the $10 and get
the Fancy
Grade.
If you are sending them as a gift or just love perfect
apples order the Extra
Fancy.
Utility
Grade was developed as the result of our Honeycrisp being kissed by
Mother Nature (hail) these apples could have the appearance of
Fancy or Extra Fancy but with dimples caused by hail or have a few more
minor blemishes. They are most likely fine for eating if you dont
mind them being less than pretty and are definately fine to make that
great Honeycrisp pie.
