Golden Pineapple, Each

Golden pineapples are premium tropical fruits featuring a barrel-shaped form with a rough rind that transitions from green to golden brown as it ripens, topped with a crown of spiky green leaves. The fragrant, juicy flesh is brilliant golden yellow and delivers an intensely sweet flavor balanced with subtle acidity and a tropical aroma. Sourced from Costa Rica or Mexico depending on seasonal availability, these pineapples typically weigh 2-3 pounds each.

Known for their tender, succulent flesh and edible core, golden pineapples offer a sweet, honeyed taste with a classic pineapple flavor profile ranging from 14 to 20 degrees Brix. The variety is excellent for fresh eating, fruit salads, smoothies, grilling, or adding to both sweet and savory dishes. Rich in vitamin C (providing 105% of daily recommended intake per cup), the fruit also contains the digestive enzyme bromelain, along with essential minerals including manganese, copper, potassium, and magnesium. The high fiber content supports digestive health, while vitamin A and B vitamins contribute to overall nutrition. Store at room temperature until ripe, then refrigerate cut pieces in a sealed container.
