We are now in the eye of the storm in terms of Summertime (literally). Floods, cooler temperatures and just general dullness have had an adverse effect on many core produce lines throughout the last three or four weeks.

Spanish stone fruit is good supply with Apricots, Peaches and Nectarines all eating really well as you would expect. If you are looking for something a bit more quirky consider the Peach/Nectarine doughnut varieties.
Over the past three or four weeks, our poor procurement chaps have had a real challenge sourcing some key lines due to the floods in many growing regions.
