Wholesale Specialty Potatoes
Specialty potatoes do something a russet cannot: they arrive at the plate already portioned. Fingerlings roast whole, marbles roast whole, and neither needs peeling, turning or shaping. For a kitchen counting prep hours, that is the entire business case.
Harvest Sensations distributes specialty potatoes nationwide from Miami and Los Angeles, in foodservice bulk and in retail packs for stores building a premium potato set.
Specialty Potatoes We Carry
- Fingerling Potatoes — mixed and Russian Banana, waxy and firm after roasting.
- Marble Potatoes — assorted colors, uniform bite-size pieces.
Purple A, Red C, White C and Honey Gold run alongside the core program.
Waxy Versus Starchy, and Why It Matters
Specialty potatoes are mostly waxy: lower starch, higher moisture, and they hold their shape under heat. That makes them right for roasting, boiling, potato salad and anything that has to survive a hotel pan. It also makes them wrong for baking and for light, fluffy mash — those need a starchy russet. Kitchens that swap one for the other and blame the potato are usually fighting chemistry, not quality.
Storage
Store specialty potatoes cool, dark and ventilated at 45–50°F. Refrigeration converts starch to sugar, which makes potatoes brown too fast and taste sweet. Light turns skins green and bitter. Keep them away from onions, which accelerate sprouting in both directions.
