Known for its exceptionally good flavor, the Akane apple offers a delightful blend of sweet and sharp tastes, making it highly preferable for fresh eating. Additionally, it holds its shape well when used in cooking.

The flesh of the Akane apple is predominantly white with a subtle yellow tinge, and it is noteworthy for its resistance to oxidation, meaning it does not brown quickly when cut.
