Golden Delicious
Flavor Profile Fresh and floral, with a slight tart finish and firm texture.
The Golden Delicious apple has a floral freshness and moderate sweetness, making it a great choice to accompany flavors that are neither very sweet nor very tart. It is quintessential for apple pie, to which you might consider adding chopped hazelnuts for a wonderful contrast of flavor and texture. This apple loves the warm flavors of spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice.
