Product Description

 NATURE YARD apricot is a small, soft, round fruit with yellowish-orange flesh and a large seed inside. ... 12 oz apricots, halved and pitted. Apricot is used to describe things that are yellowish-orange in color.Apricots are adorable little stone fruits with velvety golden orange skin and a tangy sweet flesh that tastes like a cross between a peach and a plum.Apricots are stone fruit (drupes), so called because the lone seed is often called a "stone." While related to the peach, the apricot is smaller and has an oval, smooth pit that falls out easily when the fruit is cut in half.When ripe, they're sweet like a peach with just a tiny punch of sour flavor (unripe ones will be more sour). Apricots are delicate enough for light snacking, but sturdy enough to be used for cooking and baking. In perfumery, apricot can be lush and sweet – like the fruit – or bitter, like the extract of the apricot kernel (think of an Amaretto-ish bitter almond scent).
