Current Facts
Fitz Kelly, grower and owner of the reputable Fitzgerald's Orchard, Reedley, California, measures the sugar content of his fruits with a refractometer, an easy to use compact device about the size of a regular banana.

Description/Taste
Low in acid, white fleshed nectarines offer a very sweet flavor. The significant difference between white nectarines and yellow fleshed nectarines is the amount of acid they contain. White nectarines may taste sweeter, but although yellow nectarines have a higher sugar content, the higher acid content makes them taste less sweet.
