Want to know the secret behind Cosmic Crisp®'s amazing flavor? 🍎 🤩 If you guessed photosynthesis, you're right! ☀️ 🌳 Cosmic Crisp® apple trees turns carbon dioxide, water and sunlight into sugar that's stored in the fruit as starch. As apples ripen, starch transforms back into sugar. Our growers carefully monitor these starch levels to know when the time is *just right* for harvest, ensuring the perfectly balanced flavor you know and love!🍎 🥰 Tap the link in our bio to learn more about the science behind the latest Cosmic Crisp® harvest! 🌳🍎 #cosmiccrisp #freshapples #washigntonapples #horticulturalist #plantbiology
