One of the most popular products at our store!

When you mention March or April, you’re talking about maple syrup season🍁. So what better way to indulge your sweet tooth during this time of year than to revisit the best classic maple products?

To kick things off, we wanted to introduce the most famous classic of them all—one of the owners Sébastien’s favorite… maple butter.

Let’s start by debunking the ultimate myth: NO, maple butter contains no butter. We call it maple butter thanks to its smooth, spreadable texture. In fact, the only ingredient needed to make your favorite spread is maple syrup. You might be wondering how that’s possible? It’s simple: it all comes down to how you boil and cool the maple syrup. We have to boil it between 22.5 and 23 degrees above the boiling point of water. The product then needs to cool, before being stirred. Then you can spread it on bread or a croissant, or simply eat it straight with a spoon!

Don’t worry if you don’t have the time, patience, or desire to make your own maple butter—we have some available for you in our online shop or at our Lac-Etchemin boutique café. I’ve even heard that our maple butter is the best… You have to try it and let us know how it turns out!

P.S. The best place to store your maple butter for more than a few weeks is in the fridge or freezer. 😉

Enjoy every bite and happy spring, everyone!😁
