Description: Cherry. There are over 150 varieties of cherry. Sweet (dessert) cherries are eaten fresh. The flesh is soft and very juicy or firm and moist. Skin colour ranges from pale yellow to near black and they can be almost heart-shaped. Acid (sour or culinary) cherries, of which Morello is one, are used for cooking, bottling and jam (US: jelly) making. The flesh may be white, pink or red. Duke cherries are a cross between the two and have juicy flesh.
