Maple is one of the least processed sweeteners available and is high in antioxidants and full of nutritious minerals. It is also a sustainable sweetening and flavor solution, as we maintain environmentally-friendly, socially responsible and sustainable maple sugaring practices at our farms. We look forward to sharing how our maple syrup and sugars can provide natural and sustainable sweetness and flavor to various food and beverage applications.”
According to Mintel’s U.S. 2022 Sugars and Alternative Sweeteners report, the sugar and sweetener market is forecasted to reach $5,288.2M by 2027.
