Fuji Apple

The Fuji apple is an apple variety developed as a cross between two American apple varieties, the Red Delicious and old Virginia Ralls Genet apples. Fuji apples are typically large or very large and round, on average the size of a baseball. They contain between 9-11% sugars by weight and have a dense flesh that is sweeter and crispier than many other apple varieties, making them popular with consumers around the world. Fuji apples also have a very long shelf life compared to other apples, even without refrigeration. With refrigeration, Fuji apples can last up to 5-6 months.
