broad ripple current cherrie tomatoes

I'm a sucker for punishment and have decided to grow a fairly large crop of these little fellas. Has anyone else here grown these for the markets. Picking them isn't going to be much fun but in a small punnet I think I will get a good price for them becauce they are delicious and very attractive, I intend to sell them along with worlds smallest red currant tomatoes to medium to high end restuarants $5 a punnet for 150gm punnet.
I have three restuarants who are interested at the moment so they won't be hard to move with any luck.
What do you think?

RE: broad ripple current cherrie tomatoes

We grew "spoons" a couple years.

A pain to pick nicely. Because they ripened unevenly. The end ones in a bunch were green and the ones closest to the plant are over ripe.

But they were a HUGE hit at market. They are so wonderful on salads.

Good luck!
