Some of the earliest methods of storing seasonal fruit relied on natural sugars like honey, whose high sugar content helped to inhibit bacterial growth and extended shlef-life. Thanks to refrigeration, pasteurization, airtight canning, and natural fruit pectin, our families today can enjoy low-sugar fruit spreads sweetened with fruit juice.
Crofter’s Triple Berry Just Fruit Spread is a delicious blend of strawberries, wild blueberries, and raspberries. With only 6 grams of sugar per tablespoon, this spread is a perfect companion to your homemade breads and baked goods. That’s half the sugar when compared to traditional jams and preserves. Pair with nut butters or soft cheeses; add to oatmeal, yogurt, or smoothies; or spread on croissants, waffles, pancakes, bagels, or toast.

About Crofter’s:
When you pick up a squeezable pouch of Crofter’s fruit spread, you might think you’re simply buying a super tasty spread to satisfy your hunger. And that’s a lot, but wouldn’t you also like to know that Crofter’s is looking out for the health of your body and the health of our planet? That’s right. Crofter’s has some pretty strict principles – they will never source their organic fruit from farms using synthetic chemicals or GMOs. Their spreads have 33% less sugar than most spreads AND that sugar is organic sugar sourced from Fair Trade farms committed to sustainable farming practices. Now that’s about the healthiest way to do a fruit spread! So what about the planet? Well, Crofter’s recycles 99% of the packaging from their raw materials; they recycle heat by a special system that provides their buildings with hot water and heat in winter, and they have their own wastewater treatment plant that allows them to re-use 2.5+ million liters of wastewater per year. Wow! And if that’s not enough, they also contribute to local environmental clean-up, environmental research studies, community food gardens, community education programs and internationally through The Whole Planet Foundation, providing loans to businesses in low-income communities worldwide.
