Enza Apple

[Carolina Schmalzried]

Weare the Continental European sales and marketing office of T&G Global. Our office is located in Sint-Truiden, Belgium.We offer and sell an extensive and unique range of apple and pear varieties. This high-quality fruit, together with Enzafruit New Zealand (Continent) N.V.'s proven sales and marketing experience, enables us to trade successfully all over Europe.

Since December 2002, Enzafruit joined in a merger with Turners & Growers now T&G Global. The merger with Enzafruit, one of the biggest southern hemisphere export companies of apples and pears, and Turners & Growers, the largest wholesaler and distributor for fresh fruit in New Zealand, resulted in a new entity, that is now New Zealand's number ONE fresh produce company. This new structure opens up opportunities for Enzafruit to export a wider range of New Zealand-grown produce. The company now has a very large infrastructure internationally to market their products.

Envy is a trademarked brand of the Scilate apple variety. Scilate is the result of a cross between Royal Gala and Braeburn. It was developed in New Zealand by HortResearch,[1] submitted for a patent in 2008 and patented in 2009.[2] Field tests were done in the countries of New Zealand, the United Kingdom, France, and the US. Some trialing was done in Italy with organic cultivation.[3]

The Envy apple is mostly red with yellow specks. The peel is fairly thick and tough, more so than most other apples.[4] The apple has a high juice content and will maintain its firmness while in storage.[3] The flesh is pale yellow and can take up to 10 hours to oxidize, when ripe the flesh will be crisp.[4] It is a very sweet apple with low acid and a slightly flowery taste. The skin has lenticels, which allow it to breathe.[4]

Distribution of the Envy apple in North America began in 2009 through the Oppenheimer Group, and ENZA (The New Zealand Apple and Pear Marketing Board); they began small commercial volumes in 2012 in Washington state.[5] The first fruit surpassed 100,000 cartons for production in 2014. The companies anticipate harvesting 2 million cartons of the fruit by 2020.[6] The Envy apple was ranked No. 1 for flavor, texture, aroma, and appearance in an independent study done by New Zealand-based FORWARD Insight & Strategy, in 2019.[7] The apple has been marketed with two taglines, those being "Bite and Believe" and "When you are this good they call you Envy".[8]

Envy apples are being grown under license in New Zealand, Australia, Washington (U.S. state) and Chile.[9] Field tests are also being done in the UK, France, and with organic cultivation in Italy.[1] There have been reports of the Envy apple being susceptible to Neonectria, with the infected trees occasionally showing no symptoms. Other reports submitted to ENZA have mentioned russet and shrivel, bitter pit, and internal browning.[8]

Fall is my favorite dessert season and this Easy Old Fashioned Apple Crisp with Crunchy Oat Topping is one of the reasons for it. Loads of sweet-tart apples sprinkled with the flavors of fall and topped with a crispy oat crumble make for the most delicious dessert. This easy recipe is a classic dessert that you will want to make over and over again.

When the leaves start to turn and the weather cools off, cinnamon and apple season has arrived. That means it is time to pull out all of the delicious apple recipes, like my Apple Crostata, Apple Streusel Cake, and of course the best oatmeal apple crisp recipe ever!

Apple crisp is delicious with tart apples or sweet apples. The best apples to use are of course whatever varieties you like, but some will get soft or mushy when cooked, so you may want to consider that when making your selection. A few varieties that will hold their shape when baked are:

This recipe works well with other fresh fruits and berries. Substitute pears or peaches, mix some in with your apples if you have some on hand. Berries are another delicious add in to apple crisp. So throw in some blueberries, strawberries or raspberries.

If you do have leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container or tightly covered with plastic wrap in the refrigerator for several days. Apple crisp can be reheated for a minute or two in the microwave. If you want to get that crispy texture in the topping, pop it in a 350-degree f oven for 10-15 minutes. I have also made oatmeal apple crips ahead and then reheated it just before serving.

I love to get your feedback so if you tried this No Bake Pumpkin Pie with Graham Cracker Curst & Pecan Topping or any other recipes on this website, please leave me a comment below. I hope you enjoy our recipes and look forward to hearing from you!

The Japanese market has always been a notoriously tough one to crack for apple imports, but New Zealand exporter Delica and its supply partner Enza are carving a niche in the off-season to local production.

In a positive step, the Japanese government has approved a New Zealand MAF inspector to complete the quarantine inspection process from approved facilities this season, whereas last year the industry had to pay for a Japanese inspector to be in New Zealand for all three months of the programme.

McCormack says the effort and expense entailed in shipping to Japan are worthwhile, not least because of the premium this market tends to pay, although she adds that most of that premium is currently whittled away by the higher costs of meeting market access requirements.

Innovative high-end supermarket chain Yaoko has been a pioneer in introducing New Zealand apples to consumers, according to McCormack, who notes that this retailer and others are promoting the fruit as a refreshing, crunchy snack to be enjoyed as an addition to the summer fruit offering for their customers.

Envy, the latest ENZA apple variety from New Zealand, will go into commercial plantings in Washington State in 2010. The cultivar, known as Scilate, was developed by HortResearch. Envy is its brand name.

Envy will be offered first to the 50 growers in Washington who are already producing ENZA varieties, such as Jazz and Pacific Rose, and to the three Washington packing houses handling those varieties. All ENZA varieties are marketed by Oppenheimer Group, based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

ENZA set a production target for Jazz in Washington of 1.5 million boxes, and the last plantings of Jazz to meet that target will go in the ground in 2010, Derrey said. Jazz is still being planted in New Zealand, which has a production target of 3 million boxes. In Europe, the target is 1.5 million boxes.

Scott Smith at Smith & Nelson in Tonasket, Washington, which is within 30 miles of the Canadian border, said he has Envy test trees in the ground, but has decided not to participate in the first commercial plantings because his orchards are so far north.

Smith said he went to New Zealand in 2001 and saw Pacific Rose being grown in the various growing districts. Some growers were more successful with it than others. It turned out to be a variety that could not be grown in all regions. Even in Washington, there were areas where it did not do as well.

Smith thinks that one of the greatest challenges for new varieties being developed by the many breeding programs around the world will be marketing. As more organic apples go onto the market, the number of items in the apple category continues to proliferate.

ENZA growers feel confident that they will be successful with Pacific Rose and Jazz, he said, although the volumes have been limited so far. Smith began planting Jazz in 2002 and is still planting it.

We tried the Envy Apple last year and LOVED it! It is simply superior in flavor, sweetness and crispness. I would like to buy one or two trees to plant in my small family orchard, if possible. Could you PLEASE tell us where we can buy Envy apple trees?

Hi Rick, many apples available in the market today are patented varieties only available to commercial growers. As far as I know, Envy is one of those. You could try contacting the Envy brand manager through their website to inquire whether they allow private growers to purchase trees.

Freshlook Data indicates that in the first half of 2015, Envy delivered 20 percent higher dollar sales than in the same period last year, while also increasing in volume sold by 36 percent. Meanwhile, the apple category as a whole has dropped 13 percent in dollar sales and 8 percent in per-pound volume.

To that end, the Envy website, www.envyapples.com, features a locator tool that encourages consumers to interact with one another to find the apples in their communities. Envy is available from New Zealand late June through September and Washington late October through March, with export markets in Asia taking about half of the Washington-grown volume.

A delicious thirst quencher at any time of the day. Try a shake made from chilled mint tea. For thousands of years, mint leaves have been known to have a medicinal effect and are particularly beneficial for the stomach and intestines.

Rinse the apple and slice into chunks. Grate cm of the ginger. Place the apple, ginger, mint and the rest of the ingredients in the blender. Blend until smooth. Pour the smoothie into two glasses and garnish with mint.

Quality apples do make all the difference in baked goods, especially pastry. This crumble does look tasty and very different from the ones I have seen. I can understand why it disappeared so fast-yum!

The ENZA Big Crunch, to be held on 10 May, will see around 20,000 school children biting into a Jazz apple and, hopefully, entering the pages of the Guinness Book of World Records by successfully beating the record for the most people eating an apple at the same time.

Global Marketing Manager Rosstan Mazey said the event was being organised as a fun and cheeky way to promote the availability of new season Jazz Apples, whilst also reinforcing a healthy eating message to parents and children.
