What is crunchy, so juicy that it runs down your chin, and has cinnamon and caramel notes that remind you of a crisp autumn day? The Autumn Glory® apple, of course! It is the sweetest apple phenomenon, with category data numbers to prove why this sweet-tooth satisfying apple has earned its place on produce shelves.

The Autumn Glory apple dominated December sales, delivering the highest growth percentage of all apples. It was up 119% in dollars and up 223% in volume.
