WA Farm Direct, in collaboration with Sunland Fresh Fruit in Cobram VIC, proudly announces the first export out of Australia of the much-anticipated Ondine series of flat peaches and flat nectarines. This marks the first-ever export of these summer fruits from Australia.
"The Ondine series, known for its snack-sized perfection, brings a delightful twist to the traditional peach and nectarine experience. The fruit boast a perfectly balanced 'semi-sweet' flavour and exhibit vibrantly coloured skin, coupled with a distinctive flat shape that sets them apart", says Rebecca Blackman, from WA Farm Direct.
"Originally developed in France by the Maillard family of ASF Edition, the Ondine series is set to captivate the market with its exceptional taste", she highlights. "Ondine is perfectly positioned to capture new customers from the young families and gourmet snacking markets. Its size profile and unique flat shape make it an ideal snack."
"In addition to being a convenient snack, Ondine's exceptionally sweet flavour and unusual appearance make it a versatile ingredient for culinary enthusiasts," points out Rebecca. "Its sweet flavour and specific appearance will see Ondine becoming an in-demand ingredient in canapés and grazing platters."
Justin Shield, General Manager of Trading & Business Development says: “WA Farm Direct is looking forward to working with our growers to open markets in Asia and the Middle East of the Australian ASF Edition Ondine & Regal’in summer fruit varieties. Whilst the first export season will see limited production, we look forward to establishing markets for the future as the volumes grow."
