What is a "heart cherry"?
Heart cherry, also known as heart-shaped cherry, is a type of cherry characterized by its distinctive heart-shaped appearance. Heart cherries have a rounded, plump body with a cleft or indentation at the top, resembling the shape of a heart. They typically have smooth skin ranging in color from bright red to dark red when ripe. Prized for their sweet and juicy flesh, which surrounds a single large seed or stone in the center, they are commonly enjoyed fresh as a snack or used in various culinary applications, including desserts, salads, and preserves
