Description

Nectarines are similar to peaches in the sense that they come in different varieties white or yellow, and clingstone or freestone. On average, nectarines are slightly smaller and sweeter than peaches, but with much overlap. The lack of skin fuzz can make nectarine skins appear more reddish than peaches, contributing to the fruit’s plum-like appearance. Also, unlike peaches, their skin is thinner and therefore more prone to damage. They’re an easy snack to open and eat.
