Grown on the Big Island of Hawaii, this variety packs more sweetness AND goodness into every bite than its more common relative, the Cavendish banana. Great for snacks, smoothies, breakfast or dessert! There’s just one catch: We only ship these beauties on the first Wednesday of every month. So, order now or you’ll be singing, “Yes, we have no bananas, no candy apple bananas, today!”*

*FUN FACT: The song "Yes! We Have No Bananas" was written by Frank Silver and Irving Cohn and originally released in 1923; for many decades, it was the best-selling sheet music in history. Since then the song has been rerecorded several times and is still enjoyed today!

Best eaten full yellow , with no traces of green visible. As the banana continues to ripen it will start to get brown sugar spots and a thin skin. But thanks to their outstanding shelf life, the meat will remain firm as the banana becomes sweeter. Bananas should be stored in ambient temperatures and should not be in temperatures under 60 degrees farenheit or under any circumstances be placed in a refrigerator. Bananas can be peeled and placed in a ziplock bag in the freezer for later use or smoothies. And since Hawaiian Candy Apple Bananas do not oxidize, they are great for fruit salads and snacks!
