Peach tomatoes, like other peach-type tomato varieties, have a soft fuzz that covers their skin. The creamy yellow fruit (approx weight 80-90 grams) is about 5 centimeters (two inches) in size with superb taste and texture and is allegedly the sweetest of all peach tomato varieties. The fruity flavor is complex, with sweet well-balanced components. The fruits ripening approximately 80 days after transplanting. The indeterminate, regular leaf plant is extremely productive, yielding thousands of the round, delicate fruit continuously over the course of the season.

Peach tomatoes have such a great natural flavor that they are fit for eating right off the vine. Their depth of sweetness is best eaten fresh, so they are not often used for preserves. They work beautifully in salads, or they can simply be drizzled with a bit of olive oil and sprinkled with chopped basil. They are also a nice complement to the dark, rich, slightly salty black Krim heirloom tomato. Store tomatoes at room temperature until fully ripe, after which refrigeration can slow the process of decay.

Garden Peach tomatoes are a cultivar of tomato, native South American fruit mainly from Peru. It was the winner of the heirloom taste test in 2006 and has won numerous other contests thanks to its fruity yet spicy, complex tomato flavor.
