The Blusher™ pink cherry tomato season is upon us. The Blusher™ tomato is a mid-range size between cherry and cocktail tomatoes with a soft pink hue to its skin. Its delicate texture almost melts in your mouth giving an ideal balance of acidity, sweetness and the savory umami taste.
Delta View Farms is growing the Blusher™ tomato in Ladner, British Columbia, Canada and marketing them through BC Hot House Foods Inc. They are packed with the calyx on for lasting freshness and a vibrant colour contrast. Blushers™ are available in 227g / 8oz or 680g / 1.5lb clamshells and offer a new color to current specialty tomato lines.
‘The Blushers™ crop looks great and overall yields are up. These tomatoes are fantastic tossed in pasta, fresh in salads or snacked on for a fresh healthy option,’ notes Kevin Batt, Director of Sales, BC Hot House Foods.
