Red Delicious

Red delicious apples are medium-sized and have a conical shape. They have a broad, spherical top and a tapered bottom. Early harvests may result from the thick skin's brilliant red color before the fruits are completely mature. The skin gets darker red as they get older, and white lenticels can be seen on the surface. The creamy white, crisp, juicy, fine-grained flesh has melon notes and is moderately sweet on the palate. Red Delicious apples are high in dietary fiber and contain vitamin C. They offer a small amount of vitamin A and sodium and traces of calcium and iron. Red Delicious apples are higher in antioxidants than many other apple varieties, most of which are contained in the skin.

They are categorized as Malus Domestica botanically. The appearance of Red Delicious apples has significantly changed since they were first identified. Improvements were made over the course of nearly a century, changing the fruit's color, firmness, juiciness, and even shape. The Starkrimson, Empire, and Fuji apple types are all descended from the Red Delicious apple.
