Apple Sweetango

Sweetango apple, single

Life is too short for bad apples. Luckily, there’s SweeTango. When you pick up a SweeTango, you’re holding something special – anything but “just another apple.” SweeTango tastes like no other. We like to say that SweeTango makes your taste buds dance.

Our story begins at the University of Minnesota, where expert apple breeders – using time-honored horticultural techniques – struck gold by crossing Honeycrisp and Zestar! varieties. (Honeycrisp was the bride, and Zestar! the groom… seriously!) The offspring of this happy couple is Minneiska, the tree that gives us the SweeTango apple. Soon after, the Next Big Thing cooperative was formed, a group of dedicated apple growers who selected themselves to grow SweeTango. The cooperative includes some of the world’s best apple growers. Only Next Big Thing members can grow SweeTango, which allows us to maintain the highest quality standards and ensure that SweeTango is the best apple, year after year.

Introduced in 2009, SweeTango has won awards for its exceptional flavor and texture. A seasonal apple harvested in early fall, SweeTango is available throughout the apple season in the United States and Canada. When SweeTango season arrives, don’t miss your chance to stock up on this superior apple variety.

Fun fact

One of the most popular fruits known worldwide, apples are highly adaptable and can be grown in almost any climate. The Romans ate apples, but the wide variety available today is the result of crossbreeding and cultivation in the 20th century: there are now over 7,000 varieties.

Apples can be used and served in a wide variety of ways:

• pies
• cakes
• sauces
• salads
• side dishes

Storage
