Chocolate Navel Oranges? Are they really a thing? Yes they are! A rare mutation of a regular navel orange discovered in 2006 in Valencia, Spain, these uniquely special navels have a brownish-green "chocolate" skin on the outside, with a very sweet orange flavor on the yummy inside! In fact, they are now considered to be one of the sweetest navel varieties available. They are also virtually seedless, very juicy and have a lower acid content than traditional oranges. So if you're looking for a special treat for yourself or the true citrus lover in your life, these Chocolate Navels from Pearson Ranch are sure to do the trick! Choose from either 5 or 10 pound quantities.
When are Chocolate Navels available? Chocolate Navels have a rather short harvesting season. They are typically available from February through the month of May. Due to their limited quantities and short season, annual market pricing will also vary from season to season.
