Pear Red Sensation Each

Pear Red Sensation

Red Sensation pears are large and have a true piriform shape, with a long neck and bulbous base. They ripen from a yellow-green to an all-over ruby red. The skin is smooth and dotted with lenticels, or pores, indicative of the fruit’s higher sugar content. They are harvested when just mature and ripen to a brilliant red colour off the tree. The pear’s cream-colored flesh is fine-grained, crisp and juicy, and offers a sweet taste.

Red Sensation pears are a good source of fibre and vitamin C. They are also a source of potassium and calcium. The red skins are rich in the phytonutrient anthocyanin which offers beneficial antioxidants. Red Sensation pears are low on the glycaemic index and are ideal for those on a low sugar diet.
