Buying Tips
Honey peaches are large, round and juicy, featuring fuzzy thin skin on the outside. It is advisable to buy vividly red, sweet-smelling and bruise-free honey peaches that have softer pulp around the pedicel. Since canned honey peaches contain lots of sugar, which increases the risk of tooth decay and obesity, it is better to eat fresh honey peaches only.
