With nectarines, one of our favourite fruits, coming back into season this month, we thought we would take a look at a slightly unusual member of the nectarine family. White nectarines have thinner skin than their yellow cousins and are a beautiful blushed pinky/red on the outside. They are also a flatter shape, similar to that of a donut peach. When you cut into them however, the flesh is pale and white, sweet and drippingly juicy!

We think white nectarines are best eaten fresh, but they are also wonderful poached, grilled or used in dessert recipes such as cakes, tarts and ice cream! You can see how to make white nectarine ice cream here. Trust us, it’s yummy!

With nectarines soon to be added to our boxes, we know you will love our selections of fresh, tasty, seasonal fruit delivered straight to your door! You can find out how to make an order here or give us a call on 0845 900 3772.
