The Frostbite Apple

It is extremely cold hardy, small in size, unusual in appearance, and very sweet. People either love or dislike Frostbite™. It is great for cider or people with a real sweet tooth. Frostbite | Minnesota Hardy (umn.edu)


Name: The Frostbite™ Apple (MN 447 variety)


Origin: Frostbite™ was developed in the University of Minnesota’s breeding program in the 1920s. It is extremely cold hardy and has a unique flavor that makes it a prime candidate for crossing with other apples to develop new apples. Frostbite™ is a parent to the Keepsake and Sweet 16 apples, and a grandparent to the Honeycrisp!


Appearance: Red to red maroon and purple-ish hints. Small to medium-small apple


Flavor: Tangy, refreshing, and very juicy


Texture: Firm & crisp


Season: Late season September to mid-October


Storage: 3–4 months refrigerated 


Use: One of the best for cider-making and dried apple chips. Great for general snacking.
