Discover the Ice Apple

Ice apples are a variety or type of apple cultivated in cold climates or at high altitudes, where cool temperatures contribute to their unique development. These apples usually have a firm pulp, a sweet taste with slightly acidic notes, and a higher concentration of natural sugars. Their name does not indicate that they are frozen, but it is related to the environment in which they grow, often exposed to early frosts or extreme conditions that enhance their flavor and quality.

Origin:
The Ice Apple comes from the Ademuz valleys in Valencia, a region located at over 1000 meters above sea level. This privileged environment, with its cool climate and nutrient-rich soil, gives rise to a unique and high-quality fruit. Cultivated sustainably, this apple reflects a commitment to nature and the agricultural tradition of the area.

Uses:

• Ideal for enjoying as a healthy snack.
• Perfect for adding to fresh salads or mixing with yogurt.

• Its crunchy texture and balanced flavor also make it an exquisite option for cheese boards.
