A small number of limited edition JAZZ™ Apples emblazoned with the famous logo of Great Ormond Street Hospital have been sold at M&S to raise funds for the world renowned children’s hospital.
Selected for its outstanding eating quality, a double paper bag is placed over each JAZZ™ apple to stop the fruits natural colour developing. The paper bag is removed one month prior to harvest leaving a green tissue layer which allows the fruit to be exposed to the sun. A week later the tissue is removed and a GOSH transfer is applied by hand to each apple. When the fruit is perfect for picking the transfer is removed and the apples are ready to eat.
These fantastic specimens were grown by Clive Baxter of JL Baxter & Sons fruit farm and his team in Kent so a huge well done to all of them for the hard work put in for such a great cause. We’re sure consumers will love them and they will be off the shelves in no time!
