Small Batch, Gluten Free, Soy Free, Palm Oil Free, Non GMO
Packed with soft and slow-cooked Michigan Montmorency cherries, our April featured jam, Sour Cherry Preserves from our friends at American Spoon, is a bright and beautiful celebration of one of our favorite stone fruits. These tart, slightly floral cherries are picked only miles from American Spoon’s jam kitchen and slowly cooked with just a bit of sugar and lemon to create this ruby-red jam that’s equally as stunning to see or taste. We love it spooned onto vanilla ice cream or yogurt, served alongside crackers & soft brie, or spread onto thick-cut toast with our curated PB&J pairing, Peanut & Pecan Butter with Wildflower Honey.
The quintessential Southern nut butter, our Peanut Pecan Butter was the first nut butter made by the fledgling Big Spoon Roasters in our co-founders Mark & Megan’s home kitchen in the fall of 2010. Combining the rich, buttery sweetness of slow-roasted Organic Texas pecans, High-Oleic Runner peanuts, raw Organic wildflower honey, and Jacobsen sea salt, this recipe was an instant hit at the local NC farmers’ markets and was named “one of the seven best things we tasted in 2011” by the editors of Food & Wine.
ABOUT AMERICAN SPOON
We adore American Spoon for many reasons, especially including their shared love of small-batch, craft made, delicious food. Each batch of preserves is made in copper kettles, just 60-100 jars at a time, working directly with a dedicated group of Michigan farmers and foragers for an unparalleled taste experience. You'll taste the craft and care they put into each jar.

INGREDIENT INTEGRITY
Each ingredient we use is carefully sourced based on our strict standards for taste, sustainability, transparency, and the fair and ethical treatment of everyone involved in producing it. Most of our ingredients are Certified Organic and all are GMO-free. We work exclusively with whole, natural foods, and you won’t find gluten, soy, or anything described as a “flavor” among our ingredients. We also never use fillers or shelf stabilizers like palm oil, hydrogenated oils, or partially hydrogenated oils.
SMALL-BATCH CRAFT
Our skilled food artisans roast, toast, measure, and mix each batch by hand to exacting standards to get the pinnacle of taste and freshness from each ingredient. The small scale of our batch process allows us to craft each jar and bar with incredible precision and care you can taste. This level of focus also allows us to carefully inspect and taste each product to make sure it meets our standards before it is packaged and delivered. Our commitment to keeping production in-house ensures the highest quality standards while also creating sustainable jobs for our team.

OUR ZERO-WASTE APPROACH
We know our environmental footprint and work toward zero-waste operations. Most days, we come very close. We also contribute positively to the communities we touch – through fiscal and in-kind donations - from farm to spoon. Our community support takes many forms, with one of the most tangible being our Community Blend donation program.
