Peaches look similar to nectarines, but you can tell which is which as the nectarine has a smooth skin. Each fruit contains a large seed; peach stones or kernals are used as an abrasive element in many exfoliating beauty products. Peaches are used as an ingredient in a wide range of products from food and drink, to bath and household cleansing products. Peaches are the key flavour in the famous Bellini cocktail.
