Golden Delicious / Smoothee 

My favorite apple for eating and cooking. Sweet and mild. Good for snacking for children and excellent for pie and apple sauce. Smoothee is a golden delicious variety with a silky glossy finish.

Red Delicious

A Redchief variety with brilliant red color. Good snack apple that ripens to full sweet flavor compared to other red delicious varieties.
