I love Zespri® Gold Kiwifruit because they are so juicy and sweet and I was delighted to be invited to the media launch of Zespri® SunGold Kiwifruit. The fact that the launch was held at GRUB was an added incentive for me.

Zespri® SunGold Kiwifruit has been under development since 2004; that’s ten long years of research! And it’s totally worth the wait because Zespri® SunGold Kiwifruit is not only beautiful to look at, it is incredibly delicious and packed with more than 20 essential vitamins and minerals. Zespri® SunGold Kiwifruit also has exceptionally high levels of antioxidants: 3 times more Vitamin C than oranges and 7 times more Vitamin E than apples and oranges in a fruit. And it’s completely natural; not genetically-modified!

At the launch, we were treated to a variety of drinks, hor d’oeuvres, a main course and some desserts, all incorporating Zespri® SunGold Kiwifruit. It’s amazing just how versatile the fruit is. I try to eat a kiwifruit a day when I’m at work and it’s such a convenient fruit to eat: just cut and scoop with a spoon or the Zespri® spife! Most importantly, the kids enjoy yellow kiwifruit too so they were more than happy to attack the Zespri® SunGold Kiwifruit that I brought home from the launch.
