Uses:
These are large, heart-shaped fruit with bronze green skin that turns reddish purple when completely ripe. They are juicy and have blood-red free stone flesh with a distinctive rich flavor of honey and vanilla with tart berry undertones. These plums are delightful eaten out of hand, but also spectacular in many summer favorites such as tarts or coffee cakes. Their firm texture makes them a good choice for baking, which allows this variety to actually develop an even richer, more robust flavor.
Selection & Storage:
This variety bruises easily. Choose fruit that is fully firm, with no internal soft spots. Refrigerate to slow the ripening process.
