GREAT FRUIT SYRUPS, VERSION 2.0

The Patch Takes a Stand on Health

In the Information Age, we are constantly learning how to improve our diets, eat smarter and stay healthier. Folks like Jamie Oliver have declared a food revolution, however manufacturers are experiencing food evolution. Food producers are responding to market & social demands by building on the flavors that have been successful in the past while being mindful of what will be best for us today & in the future. And one producer has brought an unlikely food product to a whole new level.

Blackberry Patch, known for its “Great Fruit Syrups,” is releasing a new line of better-for-you syrups, Harvest of Berries. In some ways, The Patch is keeping with tradition (like their signature brand, the Harvest of Berries line is all natural, made with whole berries and cooked by hand). But The Patch is also looking forward, responding to the needs and wants of the public; and the public is demanding better, healthful food. Harvest of Berries syrups are certified fat free, cholesterol free, gluten free and vegan. In addition to the dietary qualifications, the Harvest of Berries syrups are made only with berries, cane sugar and lemon juice; with more berries than the other two ingredients combined.

If you’re like the rest of us, you’re probably thinking, “All of these things sound good, but how does it taste?” The pure ingredients are a natural complement to the berries, and the result is indulgent, not-too-sweet syrup full of farm fresh flavor. Use them with breakfast, dessert, in salad dressings or as a glaze.

The Harvest of Berries syrups are available in Blueberry, Blackberry and Raspberry, and you’ll be able to find them soon in upscale gift shops, specialty food markets and at blackberrypatch.com.
