About the raw material

Taste
The cherry is a spherical stone fruit, the flavour and colour of which depend on the variety. The colour can vary from yellow to pink, dark red and almost completely black, while the taste ranges from the sour to the completely sweet.

Origin
In China, cherries have been cultivated for more than 3000 years and were also known by the ancient Egyptians, Greeks and Romans. In the 18th century it was reintroduced in England, from where it has spread to the rest of the world.

Season
The cherry tree blossoms around May and is harvested from June to September, when we in Denmark also import them from abroad.

Good for
You can eat the cherry fresh, but it's also great in desserts and for pickling and cooking. See more about our Skælskør Cherry Sauce here.
