Is it possible for an apple to be an overachiever? Pink Lady® apples would say yes. As the first apple cultivar to blossom and the last to be harvested, they soak up about 200 days of sunshine before landing in your kitchen. As a result, they boast an especially crisp bite, rosy-blush color, and balanced, sweet-tart flavor—flavor that’s amplified in Trader Joe’s Pink Lady® Apple Chips.

It all starts in Washington state, where our supplier harvests the Apples at peak freshness. They’re thinly sliced, then vacuum crisped until delightfully crunchy. What’s vacuum crisping, you ask? It’s a gentle frying method that uses a vacuum-sealed chamber to crisp the Apples at low temperature with minimal oil, helping preserve and magnify their flavor. They’re topped off with a dusting of cinnamon sugar, culminating in sweet, effervescent Apple Chips with a paradoxically juicy finish.

Snack on gluten free Pink Lady® Apple Chips right out of the bag, or crumble them over Plain Whole Milk Greek Yogurt or French Vanilla Ice Cream (perhaps with Fleur de Sel Caramel Sauce on top?). Speaking of caramel sauce, you can always use it as a dip for your Apple Chips, or drizzle it over them for a dessert-y spin on nachos.
