The Sweet Surprise For Summer Snacking: COTTON CANDY™ Grapes Bring a Taste of Joy to Fruit Bowls

An unexpected discovery through traditional plant breeding has given rise to one of summer's most distinctive fruits, as COTTON CANDY™ grapes return to supermarket shelves with their remarkably sweet, delicious flavour.

Although they look much like other green table grapes, COTTON CANDY™ grapes are a naturally bred variety with a flavour that's unlike anything most shoppers have tasted before. With their crisp, juicy texture and distinctive sweetness, these green grapes bring a surprising twist to everyday fruit snacking.

Dr Carrie Ruxton says:

“Summer is the perfect time to make the most of seasonal fruit, whether you're packing a picnic, hosting a barbecue or simply looking for refreshing snacks to keep in the fridge. COTTON CANDY™ grapes offer something a little different, with a naturally sweet flavour that often surprises people when they first try them.”

“Many people assume such a delicious flavour must be the result of artificial ingredients, but that's not the case. COTTON CANDY™ grapes were developed using traditional plant breeding techniques, where naturally flavoursome grape varieties are crossed over successive generations to create a new variety. They contain no added sugars or artificial flavourings – their distinctive sweet taste comes entirely from the grape itself."

Explaining how COTTON CANDY™ grapes can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet, Dr Carrie Ruxton adds,

"Fresh fruit is one of the easiest snacks to include in everyday life, and COTTON CANDY™ grapes are a versatile option. They work well in lunchboxes, on picnic platters or simply as a refreshing snack straight from the fridge. You can also freeze them for a cooling summer treat or add them to yoghurt, porridge or breakfast bowls for a natural burst of flavour.”

"If you have a sweet tooth, they're an enjoyable way to satisfy that craving while still choosing fruit, without sacrificing the pleasurable experience of a fun snack!”

Available now in Tesco, COTTON CANDY™ grapes are available in a 125g snack pot, 400g punnet and 800g sharing pack so whoever you want to share your grapes with - if you want to share them at all (!)- there’s a size that suits you.
