About ApricotKing
Since 1946, the Gonzales family has grown the rare and fabulous California Blenheim apricots. Grown on our Hollister ranch, we continue to be the farmer, pruner, dryer, packer, and seller of the vanishing Blenheim apricot. We produce the best tasting apricots in the world all "Home Grown in the Flavor Zone"!
In addition to our incredible dried apricots, be sure to discover our variety of nuts (walnuts, pistachios, almonds) and other dried fruits (peaches, pears, prunes, and more). For those who believe less is more, we have dark and delicious unsulfured dried apricots. And don't forget our sweet and tart selection of apricot jams and syrups as well as our decadent chocolate covered fruits and nuts. Simply delicious! Everything here on the ranch is organically grown.
Enjoy!

SlipPits (Gourmet 14 oz)
New 2024 crop
Not every apricot can grow up to be a SLIPPIT.
You must be extra-large, plump, flawless, and ripe.
We save the best Blenheims of the day for slippits............the Cadillac of our Line.
These luscious slippits are dried whole in the sun.
After 3-4 days, the pit is gently slipped out.
That little bit of extra roasted-in-pit time, gives the slippies an extra pizzaz and unique flavor.
We run short of these every year......
Hollister suffered with 100 degree tempertures during our short harvest......we could not make
many slippits. The heat turned the fruit into mush.....we are sure to run out by the Holidays.

The Absolute Best
Posted by Dan Joseph on Jan 22nd 2024
I have been buying dried apricots for over 20 years and I have never been disappointed by any of the products that ApricotKing sells. I especially love the slip pits. They have excellent flavor. Also, they use much less sulpher dioxide. It does require the apricots to be kept in the refrigerator but that is a small price to pay for such great flavor.

Impressive flavor
Posted by Jay on Oct 21st 2023
Having loved apricots since childhood, “slippits” seemed to have… well slipped through the cracks in my tastebuds, slightly more than a single bite but ooh that wonderful apricot flavor shines through!

What Every Apricot Aspires to Be
Posted by Jill on Sep 18th 2023
slip pits are what all apricots want to be when they grow up: plump, orange and delicious

Simply the BEST apricots!
Posted by Paul on Sep 17th 2023
These are without any doubt, the BEST Blenheim apricots available from ANYWHERE. The quality is unsurpassed, and the flavor is unbelievable! No sulfur taste. Minimal use of sulfur dioxide to retain color, texture and flavor. The only better way to enjoy Blenheim apricots would be to pick them fresh off the tree at the peak of ripeness.

My Christmas present to myself
Posted by Elizabeth on Sep 11th 2023
I am a mom and therefore I buy most of the presents for the family. I want presents too! This is the only present that I buy for myself every year. I share my other apricots that are also delicious, but the Slip Pits are all for me!

Best dried cots!
Posted by Gayle on Sep 10th 2023
Slip-pits have that unique apricot taste, and are soft and tender.
Slabs are great with slightly stronger taste and more sweetness.
Best dried cots I've ever tasted.
