Scrumptious apples and pears

Our M&S Select Farms apples and pears are in abundance right now and we've got loads of lovely ways to enjoy them

Envy apples

M&S Select Farms Envy apples are pure, dense apples with a wonderfully good crunch and a refreshingly sweet flavour.

Their beautiful bright skin means they look great in salads or layered on top of tarts and pies - and their sweet, long-lasting flavour make them perfect for toffee apples.

Select Farm Pears

M&S conference pears are grown by farmers we know and trust. Taste-tested for sweetness, they're picked at their peak for a perfect ripeness and sweet, mellow fragrant flavour.

Try them poached in spiced red wine, baked in a squidgy chocolate pear pudding or fried with pork and onions for a really special dinner.
