However, despite the popularity in Brazil, the creation of the love apple is attributed to William W. Kolb, New Jersey pastry chefs in New Jersey. The creator’s idea was to sell the apple of love as a Christmas jam. In the lands of Canarinha, delicacy arrived in the mid -940s and is successful until the present day.

With possible variations between grape and banana skewers, accompanied by chocolate syrup on the roof, the “apple of love” now must embrace another fruit in its kingdom: the strawberry. With the enthusiasm of people by eating the new fever on the internet, there are many reports of fruit deficiency in some locations.

The consumer who had sought strawberries for a few days in the company of warehouses and general warehouses of San Paolo (Ceagesp) found a very different price from the current one. The fruit, which was marketed, on average, $ 24.66 on the second day of July, went up to $ 46.88, last Monday, 28. It is an increase of just over 90%. The data come from the Ceagesp economy team, which underlines that growth outside the curve of strawberry prices was noted only from 23 July.

The “strawberry boom” is also reflected on other fronts, by the large number of product sales. On the IFOOD delivery platform, the requests of the article increased by over 2,300%from 11,000 requests in June to over 275,000 in July. In the units, there were 524,000 strawberries of love sold by the demand.

According to the platform, only July accumulated compared to the year 2024. Over 10,300 requests for products with this nomenclature were recorded last year. Already this year, the number of orders amounts to over 290,000 orders. Of this total, over 94% of the requests was only this July.

Which also celebrates the moment with great sales are pastry chefs and pastry chefs scattered on Brazil. The Millena Moreira packaging, by Vila Velha (eg), told of a video published on Instagram that a customer has paid $ 50 in one unit. On average, the value of delicacy varies from $ 10 to $ 25.

“What is happening in Brazil with this candy, I have never seen anything like this. It is a second Easter of the pastry chefs. I think this product will be for our history,” the pastry vibrated.
