Orange Candy Melon

Melón Orange Candy Agroponiente

A melon that will make your summers very sweet

It’s time to present one of our sweetest and most delicious fruits: the Orange Candy melon. Its intense flavour characterises this melon. It’s the variety with the highest Brix degrees (16.5), or in other words, the melon with the highest sugar levels. But don’t worry, this sugar is not bad; it’s natural.

The Orange Candy melon is famous for its yellow skin and orange pulp. In addition, its size is slightly small, which makes it easier to carry. These melons are also more resistant, both before harvest and growing and during transportation.

It grows by the Mediterranean coast, mainly around Almería, and its delicious fruit will make your summers even sweeter and refreshing. You can stay healthy without giving up on the sweet and delightful taste of the Orange Candy melon.

Melon is more than just its delicious flavour

We all like to enjoy a sweet and refreshing slice of melon, but apart from being delicious, it has many health benefits.

Thanks to its high potassium content, melon contribute to the proper functioning of the nervous and muscular system. So we are talking about a fruit that takes care of our body and mind! It also has high levels of vitamin C, which keep our bones, teeth, and skin in good condition. And if that weren’t enough, it strengthens the immune system by promoting the formation of antibodies.

Another secret about melons is that despite having a rich and unique sweet flavour, it’s a great fruit to include in our diet. This is because it has high water content, low in calories, and has a great satisfying effect, making it one of the best fruits to lose weight with.
