Buy Organic Hidden Rose Apples UK

Organic Hidden Rose apples are a rare, pink-fleshed apple variety now available in the UK — crisp, aromatic, and bursting with sweet-tart flavour.

What are Hidden Rose Apples?

Hidden Rose apples (Malus domestica ‘Airlie Red Flesh’) are a unique heirloom variety originally discovered in Oregon, USA. From the outside, they resemble a pale green to yellow apple, but once sliced open, they reveal a vibrant rosy-pink flesh.

Flavour-wise, Hidden Rose apples are crisp and refreshing, with a balance of sweetness and tart acidity, often compared to strawberry and lemonade. Their striking appearance makes them a favourite among gourmet chefs, fruit enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a conversation-worthy addition to a fruit platter.

Because they’re grown organically, each apple is free from synthetic pesticides, grown in harmony with nature, and carefully harvested for peak flavour.

Nutrition & Health Benefits

Like other apple varieties, Hidden Rose apples are naturally nutritious:

• Vitamin C – supports immune and skin health.

• Dietary fibre – promotes healthy digestion and satiety.

• Low in calories – a light, refreshing snack.

• Natural antioxidants – linked to their rosy-pink pigmentation.

• Hydrating – high water content makes them refreshing.
