The 11 Best Frozen Fruits Available At Costco

Frozen fruit is a great staple for any well-stocked kitchen. Unlike fresh fruit, frozen fruit lasts for months and months, so you'll never feel those pangs of guilt from seeing it spoil. When it comes to flavor, frozen can't be beat. It's picked at the height of ripeness, so the juiciest, tastiest flavor is preserved no matter when you decide to use it. Plus, even though frozen fruits last far longer than fresh, frozen fruits have much lower prices. 

There is an endless amount of amazing frozen fruit recipes you can try. If you have the urge to make smoothies, pies, or even add some pizzazz to your dessert with a fruit topping, frozen fruit is a must for your grocery list. That's where everyone's happy place — Costco — comes in. Costco has an incredible selection of frozen fruit at some of the lowest price points available. These stand-out products have both quality and taste, and are sure to make you and your wallet happy for months to come.

You might be wondering whether eating organic is worth it. In terms of nutrient content, there is no significant difference between organic and regular produce. However, fruits labeled organic are grown without the use of pesticides or artificial fertilizers. So, while an organic strawberry may not deliver more nutrients with every bite, it does keep some pretty nasty chemicals out of your body. 

The health benefits are an upside of organic food, but the downside can be the cost. However, that's not so at Costco. Costco's in-store brand, Kirkland Signature, sells a variety of organic products at low prices. While organic grocers tend to be on the pricey side, Costco has the same quality and taste for a fraction of the cost.

Kirkland Signature's organic strawberries are priced at just 21 cents an ounce. They're certified organic, contain no preservatives, and are individually frozen to preserve that peak-season taste. These strawberries are a big hit among Costco members, with one Redditor commenting, "I hated buying fresh strawberries and having to deal with cutting the tops off and all that. Took a chance with Costco's frozen organic ones... Not only are they pre-cut off so you aren't wasting more, but they are INDIVIDUALLY frozen so they do not stick together in a giant mass." Sounds like one happy customer.

Blueberries are the unsung hero of the berry family. Packed with antioxidants, these little blue bursts of joy deliver nutrition and flavor in every bite. While fresh berries can rot within days, frozen blueberries last for months. 

For a home chef with big ambitions, frozen blueberries can be a game-changer. Perhaps you want to get your day off to a sweet start with blueberry pancakes or overnight oats, or impress guests at tea time with blueberry scones. Maybe you're craving a blueberry smoothie, or you want to get a little daring and try a blueberry smoothie bowl. Frozen blueberries are the magic ingredient to making these culinary creations come to life, and Costco has a brand that will deliver the best flavor at the best price.

Kirkland Signature comes through again with their organic frozen blueberries. Not only is this product cost-effective and packed with nutrition, but it's also delicious. Costco members love the taste. In fact, more than one Costco member said they eat them straight out of the bag. One Redditor absolutely gushed about these berries, saying, "LOVING Costco's frozen organic blueberries as a snack, actually I've become obsessed!!"

These dark sweet cherries are about to become your new obsession. Unlike Bing cherries – the predominant cherry grown and sold in the U.S. — dark cherries are riper, and thus, much sweeter. Happy Village cherries are grown in Anatolia, a large region near the Black Sea in Turkey that is known for growing the world's sweetest cherries. After they're harvested, the cherries are flash-frozen to seal in the nutrients and flavor. 

The extra sweetness makes them the perfect ingredient for a cherry pie with a little extra sparkle. Or, if you're wanting to impress your guests, take your baking to the next level with this decadent grilled black cherry clafouti. 

Of course, you can always skip the baking, and eat these frozen cherries straight out of the bag. Costco members rave online, with one Redditor giving this tasty tip for eating the cherries plain: "I hold them in my mouth a moment to let them melt, and it makes a great burst of sweet cherry."

Any chocolate lover can attest that chocolate is an absolutely magical flavor. Now, adding chocolate to strawberries? That's a recipe for pure joy! This product from Trü Frü also has some major health benefits beyond just the smile you get on your face after eating them.

Strawberries are delicious, but also have many health benefits. According to WebMD, strawberries are fat-free, and also a low glycemic food. Strawberries have a hefty dose of vitamin C and other antioxidants, which help reduce the risk of serious health conditions like cancer, diabetes, and even heart disease.

As for the other ingredient — chocolate — you might be surprised to learn it has some health benefits too. WebMD explains that chocolate can also be a good source of nutrients (if eaten in moderation, of course). Many chocolates contain important minerals, like magnesium, zinc, phosphorus, and copper.

These are SO good."

Durian is a popular Southeast Asian fruit that you can now find in Costco's frozen section. The fresh version of the fruit can be intimidating. It's a large fruit, covered in spikes. Perhaps what makes the fruit most famous is its pungent smell. 

You might be thinking, why would I ever want to eat this stinky fruit? First, durian is considered a "superfruit," and is rich in iron, vitamin C, and potassium. Second, durians are very popular for their taste. But what does durian taste like? That depends on who you ask. The flavor has been described as tasting like cheese, almonds, garlic, and even caramel – sometimes all at one time!

If the odor part scares you, Costco has made it easy to face your fears and try this superfood. While fresh durian is known for its strong odor, frozen durian avoids all that. It may be hard to find fresh durian in your area, but Costco has you covered with durian that will last all year long in the freezer.
