Northern Michigan sunshine in every bite

Imagine wandering through a Northern Michigan berry patch at peak season, plucking sun-warmed berries straight from the vine. We’ve bottled that moment just for you. This vibrant spread bursts with the tangy, fresh flavor of strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries – all brightened with a hint of ginger, and naturally sweetened with pure maple syrup.

Spoon our Berry Patch fruit spread over ice cream, swirl it into yogurt, or let it cascade over waffles for a breakfast that tastes like summer. It’s just as magical in savory dishes: try it brushed over roasted pork or paired with a beautifully aged cheese. However you use it, this berry blend brings a little Northern Michigan sunshine to every bite.

About our maple fruit spreads

Our maple fruit spreads are a little love letter to Northern Michigan’s favorite crops – bright, bold fruit perfectly paired with our rich, caramelly maple syrup. Each batch is made slowly and simply, using only natural ingredients and sweetened exclusively with pure Michigan maple syrup. Trust us: swapping out white sugar for pure maple syrup makes a magical difference.

We keep things clean and honest – no refined sugar, no preservatives, no funny business. Every maple fruit spread we make is vegan, crafted with gluten-free ingredients, and ready to upgrade everything from your morning toast to your midnight snack.

Fruit spread vs jam

Many people ask us, what is the difference between a fruit spread and a jam?

A fruit spread typically has actual pieces of fruit, while jam is made with pureed fruit. Our fruit spreads are made with whole berries or chopped pieces of larger fruits, which are then simmered in pure maple syrup.

A typical fruit spread is made by cooking whole fruit with sugar. We just replace the white sugar with pure maple syrup!
