How to Eat McIntosh Orchard Red Cherries

McIntosh Orchard Red Cherries are best enjoyed chilled and fresh. Rinse only before eating, drain well and serve as a premium cherry snack or sharing fruit.

• Eat fresh and chilled
• Serve in fruit platters
• Add to fruit gift boxes and hampers
• Pair with yoghurt, cream or desserts
• Use in cakes, tarts and pies
• Cook into compotes, jams or fruit sauces
• Pair with cheese, nuts and other premium fruits

What to Do If Cherries Taste Too Tart

Cherry flavour can vary by variety and harvest timing. If a batch tastes more tart than expected, the cherries can still be used in simple kitchen preparations such as sauces, compotes or jam-style toppings.

Remove the pits, cook the cherries gently with a small amount of sugar or honey if desired, and simmer until the fruit softens and releases its juice. This can be served with yoghurt, pancakes, waffles, cakes, ice cream or dessert bowls.

Storage and Handling Guide

Keep McIntosh Orchard Red Cherries refrigerated immediately after delivery. Do not wash them before storage because excess moisture can shorten freshness and encourage softening.

Wash cherries only when you are ready to eat them. Rinse gently under cool water, drain well and keep the stems attached where possible. Remove any soft, leaking or damaged cherries early so the rest of the fruit stays in better condition.

Nutrition Overview

Cherries can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet. They contain naturally occurring nutrients and plant compounds found in red fruit, including vitamin C, potassium, fibre and polyphenols.
