Apricot varieties and best uses

The conversions above are the same whatever variety you use; the difference is what each is good for. Here is how the common apricot varieties compare.

VarietyBest for
MoorparkEveryday eating and cooking: large, juicy, and balanced sweet-tart; the widely available dual-purpose apricot.
BlenheimJam, drying, and baking where flavour matters: heirloom California variety with intense sweet-tart flesh and a short summer window.
PattersonStandard supermarket cooking: firm and mild commercial variety that ships well; fine for tarts and crumbles when ripe.
TiltonCanning, poaching, and preserves: firm and slightly tart with flesh that holds its shape under heat.
GoldcotBackyard growing and home preserves: hardy variety with golden flesh and reliable cold tolerance.

Which should I pick?

For everyday baking and fresh eating, a Moorpark is the widely available all-rounder: large, juicy, and balanced sweet-tart. For jam and drying where flavour matters most, a Blenheim is the gold standard, though its window is short and mostly North American. If you only find unnamed supermarket apricots they are usually Patterson or similar, fine for cooking but milder. For canning and poaching where shape matters, a Tilton holds up best.
