Apples
that retain their flavor work best for baking. We recommend:

added flavor mix in the following varieties:
Haralson, Winesap, Golden Delicious. Although
these apples are chunkier when cooked, they add wonderful
flavor to baked goods

adding visual appeal, the lemon juice brings out the flavor
of the fruit.
