Mrs. Prindable's FAQs

Where are the apples used by Mrs. Prindable's Handmade Confections grown?
Mrs. Prindable's purchases apples from several different growing regions in the United States. These include, but are not limited to:

1. Washington
2. California
3. Michigan
4. New York

What types of apples are used?
Mrs. Prindable's selects apples that are the freshest, firmest (crunchiest) and best quality available during the season. We match the flavor profile of the apple with our homemade caramel and gourmet toppings. We often select Granny Smith apples; however, other varieties are used also.

How are the apples selected?
Mrs. Prindable's selects apples based upon the quality of the firmness and taste. We use certain apple buyers around the country to visit and check quality before we purchase. Since our apples come direct from the growers, they are fresher than what you would purchase in a grocery store!

How are apples sized?
Mrs. Prindable's uses several different size apples for its assortments. Those sizes are Jumbo, Large, and Treat/Individual. The size is usually presented in the assortment name or in the description of what the assortment contains. Here's a helpful chart for the sizes that Mrs. Prindable's offers on QVC:

What are the differences between Treat and Individual sizes?
Both the Treat size and Individual size are the same size apples. However, the treat size is dipped in caramel and topped with sprinkles. The individual size is dipped in caramel and rolled in gourmet toppings creating a thicker, larger gourmet apple.

How long do Mrs. Prindable's apples last?
We suggest apples be refrigerated upon receipt. If refrigerated, Mrs. Prindable's apples will be delicious for at least three weeks. Before enjoying, remove from refrigerator and let apples warm to room temperature. If not refrigerated, Mrs. Prindable's apples will be good for at least 10 days. Remember — it all starts with a fresh apple!
