Has anyone purchased the Mrs. Prindables apples and received them?

Georgiagrama — Mon, 09 Dec 2019 02:26:43 GMT

My nephew is coming down from Canada to the South for Christmas and has planned to visit us. He has 3 children and I was trying to think of a healthy, but child acceptable treat for his children, so I thought about the Mrs. Prindables apples.

The reviews I've seen aren't favorable. Has anyone ordered them and tried them yet?

What do you think is "healthy" about these?

@Group 5 minus 1 It's an apple covered in chocolate chips. Better than a Snickers, and it is Christmas after all. Perhaps, just for you, I should have written "kid friendly" treat.

Not really. There is a lot of sugar in an apple.

@Group 5 minus 1 I'm sure they get their broccoli at home.

Did you have information about the quality of the apples since that is what I asked.

We have ordered Ms. Prindables many times. Always had positive experience. My grandchildren like them, as do my adult children, my husband and I. You cut them in wedges, and yes they are covered with sweets, but there is certainly more apple than coating.

It is a special treat for the holidays.

@Georgiagrama I order them every year. They have always been good but if not the Q is good at making not so good food purchases right.My grandkids go nuts when they see the Prindables box arrive.I understand they are good motivating rewards. I usually get the TSV every year and again at Easter.

@Georgiagrama,

My teacher daughter received her order on Friday; she will hand them out at school around the 19th. The apples arrived in great condition, and the one we tried was as good as we’ve come to expect.

I would be wary of reviews unless they were written in the last few days. My daughter placed an advance order months ago, and the apples did not ship until last week. The first shipments are just now being received.

@Georgiagrama Do you have a local candy store? Or if you live near a mall with Saks Fifth Ave. or Neiman as they may have a dept. that sells goodies. Graham Chocolates is about 15 or 18 miles from me but they have they best Truffles, chocolates, taffy apples. Check them out online but shipping is on the high side.

I’ve ordered them a couple of times. I like the more ‘simpler” ones. Just sprinkles or nuts or chocolate chips. Not loaded with candy toppings like heath bar candy. The larger size apples easily feed a couple of people when you cut it up. The smaller ones are shareable too. My experience with the apples have always been good. I like them.

I get them every year.. they are good.. I think if you slice them like they do on their presentation you will be okay .. but check with the parents first

I used to order regularly but the longevity and quality have decreased over the years that I pass on these now.

@Georgiagrama Below is an apple from Graham's. There are several others and they are located under Holiday - Thanksgiving. This one is $8.49 -- others are less.

@Katcat1 There is a wonderful candy shop in Savannah called Savannah Sweets, however, I'd have to have them shipped (I live in a rural area) and, the apples and shipping would be cost prohibitive for me. The closest to me is a wonderful do nut shop, but I don't want to send the children on a major sugar high. My house is too small!

@ScrapHappy Thank you. I had planned on ordering the 9 apples with the chocolate chip coating. The simpler ones will still be a treat for the children I think.

I order every year and gift them to my neighbors who have helped me in some way. And yes, I too have eaten them and have enjoyed them. I imagine there are worse things to buy for "unhealth" but in my honest opinion these make super gifts and are always appreciated.
