Overview
Cream Sausage is a bushy determinate paste tomato with cylindrical fruit in creamy white to pale yellow, each looking like a small sausage when picked at about 3 inches. The flavor is mild, smooth and almost buttery, good fresh or simmered into a pale sauce. Because the plant stays compact and sets its crop within a short window, it fits containers and small beds with little staking and suits batch canning. Keep watering steady to head off cracking. Maturity is around 80 days from transplant.
