We’ve seen these type specimens and they are lovely! It’s unfortunate that you need/want to move them when they are doing exactly what was intended: bearing fruit. If you transplant them carefully, disturbing them as little as possible by lifting them large (making the removal hole as wide and deep as possible) and resettling them in a similarly large hole, you might be able to save the fruit and the season. Cutting them back is not what we would recommend. Per above: Pruning slows a young tree’s overall growth and can delay fruiting, so don’t be in a hurry to prune, other than removing misplaced, broken, or dead branches.
