I have never had brown mushy apples. How long did you keep them? Just bought again the pretzels, and they are wonderful.Gave to mailman and neighbors, not one complaint. Keep making these I will continue to buy.Love them all. 


I had them for about a week or so, @HLP, before were gifted them. They were all stored in my fridge during that time.

I don't like them either.  I just like a nice fresh apple, I'm happy with that.  I bought them once and DH asked "what were you thinking?"..........I don't know what I was thinking, LOL!  Obviously we didn't like them.

I didn't order them but I remember when they were presented.  I had my doubts about those cinnamon bun ones. They didn't sound great.

Same thing happened to me several years ago, a few were ok but ended up throwing out the majority as they went bad very quickly or were already brown inside.

I’ve have Mrs Prindables before. I’m not really a fan of them. They look so good, but just loaded with to much stuff on top. I like the apples from rocky mountain chocolate factory more. That’s just me though.

I do not buy them anymore since they don't put great toppings on them. Loved them with nuts and chocolate chips. They are not great anymore.

Re: Review of recent Mrs Prindables apples TSV

So strange. I've bought these sets (several every year) to give out as gifts. I did the same this year. I always keep a few for myself and take out for the family as we think they are delish. I've never had a brown or mushy one. I find them to be exactly as shown and represented. The cinnamon one this year is different but I wouldn't turn it down as it still tastes good. For the price and with the cute boxes, it makes a nice gift. People expect me to give them this every year and I've never had a complaint.

We tried these apples years ago.  They were mushy with brown spots.  Very old.  We go to Rocky Mountain Chocolate Co and get fresh dipped apples.

I live in Illinois and the home office of theirs is a suburb north of me.

I will say you can purchase directly from them and the product is FRESHER.

Go onto their website.

Re: Review of recent Mrs Prindables apples TSV

I am obviously in the minority, or maybe I’m the only one, lol, but I lived the cinnamon apples! I tried to hid from the grandkids at Christmas, so they would eat the other flavor of which I am not a fan, but they found them, 🤣. They liked them better, too, as did my sons and dil’s. 🤪. Hubby was the only one who was just indifferent about them.

I like her large apples, but have had no luck with the personal size apples. The skin is too hard or the apples are mushy. I have only had one batch of large apples that came with brown spots already in them. That was about a year and a half ago, I think.
