There are plenty of maple syrup bottles on the market, but most of them are made of glass or take the form of large plastic jugs. Butternut Mountain Farm sets itself apart by packaging its maple syrup products in plastic squeeze bottles.
Since maple syrup can leave behind a sticky mess on packaging closures, even when it is neatly poured, the easy-to-use bottle features a silicone valve to dispense the product. This is comparable to the way a number of other condiments are packaged, which encourages families to make the switch to using maple syrup as their go-to sweetener.
Recent success in the maple syrup industry has created huge opportunity for a range of maple products to come forth as the healthy, natural and flavorful alternative to artificial sweeteners and syrups.
