Few roadside stops become true culinary destinations, but Ontario’s landmark The Big Apple in Colborne has earned that status with its legendary oven-fresh pies, cider, and, most importantly, its mouth-watering fritter goodness.
If you crave a pastry that’s crisp on the outside, pillowy inside, and studded with real fruit, these are the fritters worth planning a road trip for.
Let’s dive in and explore the variety of fritters you can find at The Big Apple!
This flagship apple fritter comes in a family-friendly six-pack, perfect for weekend brunch or office treats. Made with a light, fluffy pastry dough and filled with juicy apple chunks. These deep-fried delights are glazed to perfection, offering a mouthwatering blend of sweetness and a hint of cinnamon.
At CAD 14.49, it’s the best price-per-fritter option for anyone feeding a crowd.
Think of these as the deluxe edition: thicker slices of fresh apple and a slightly richer dough give every bite a more pronounced fruit flavour.
The three-pack format keeps them ultra-fresh—ideal if you live solo or want a quick dessert without leftovers.
If you prefer berries to apples, the blueberry fritter delivers a burst of whole summer blueberries sealed inside a golden shell. The glaze is intentionally lighter, allowing the natural berry sweetness to shine through. The texture is “crispy outside, marshmallow-soft inside,” and the portion size is as “perfect with morning coffee.”
Whether you reach for the classic six-pack, the fruit-forward Premium apple fritter, or the jewel-toned blueberry fritter, one thing is certain: The Big Apple’s commitment to fresh ingredients and time-tested technique elevates these humble pastries into must-try Ontario icons.
