Google Persimmon Palace and come visit us during the season to get your persimmon fix! From May - June we provide spray-free Fuyu persimmons just as nature intended, bursting with freshness, flavour and goodness. The persimmons are hand-picked with love direct from the orchard - no storage, no processing, and no refrigeration. Our sweet, crunch persimmons area the non-astringent Fuyu variety. They
look like a large flat tomato with a lovely deep orange colour. Fuyu persimmons are delicious simply eaten as they are or you can pair them with cheese, walnuts or use them in baking. They can be eaten at any time – while they are crunchy or once they have ripened a bit and the flesh has softened. Our persimmons will keep well for one to two weeks at room temperature. Unlike other fruit, persimmons kept in a fridge will go soft more quickly than if left at room temperature. Persimmons are not only beautiful looking and taste yum - they are good for you too! Each fruit is high in vitamin C and A – packing 30 times more vitamin A than an apple and 10 time more vitamin C than a lemon! They also provide a good dose of iron, and manganese, which is great for the skin. And yes, if you are wondering - we do courier to North Island locations (no RD delivery). Get in touch to find out more. We look forward to welcoming you to Persimmon Palace and sharing our persimmons with you.
