The cherry season is a well-known phenomenon in the Netherlands and runs from May through July. During the season, the sweetest cherries traditionally come from the Prestige orchards. They are carefully picked at the moment they are perfectly ripe. Prestige cherries taste sweet, have firm flesh, and are burgundy to purple in color. The cherry stem is long, green, and has a kind of small cork at the end, which attaches it to the tree. This cork ensures the cherry stays juicy. That’s why growers intentionally leave the stems on when picking. Processed, cherries are real flavor bombs: pickled, classic in a clafoutis, or as a flavor enhancer in desserts and pastries. Fresh cherries are delicate, so store them carefully to prevent bruising and mold. Available per 250-gram tray or in a box with 8 trays of 250 grams each.
