Golden Delicious apples are pale green to golden yellow in color
and speckled with small lenticels (spots). The flavor of these
firm, crisp, white-fleshed apples vary: grown in a cool climate,
the amount of acid in this apple increases, creating a sweeter
flavor. In warmer growing areas, acid content is lower, creating
a milder flavor.
Low in calories Golden Delicious apples are a good source of
soluble fiber, which has been proven to help lower cholesterol,
control weight and regulate blood sugar. They also contain
vitamins A and C, as well as a trace amount of boron and
potassium, most of which is located in the apples skin.
