Artisanal Apple Butters

The Pepper Palace's Natural Fruit Spread is 100% Organic

— June 10, 2015 — Lifestyle
The Pepper Palace is a Canadian food brand that specializes in pickled condiments, sauces and fruit spreads like this artisanal apple butter. The locally sourced spread is a great alternative to overly processed jams that can feature artificial sugar additives.

This apple butter is made from whipped apples that are kettle cooked and is naturally sweetened using cane sugar. Infused with a blend of natural spices like cinnamon, this apple butter product is a healthier alternative to store-bought jams and is also a tasty substitute for peanut or almond butters.

Safe for nut allergy sufferers, this spreadable product is priced at a $10 rate and is made with a blend of organic ingredients. It is also easy to recreate by those who wish to make their own budget-friendly version at home.

1. Artisanal Food - The artisanal food trend creates a disruptive innovation opportunity for small-scale and locally sourced food production.
