Mentioned in the SF Chronicle:

“Owner Yamina Merzoug, who used to work at Craftsman and Wolves, also likes playing with teas — especially, I imagine, during the time of year when fruit choices are more limited. There’s chamomile, Assam paired with mint, and an earthy and sweet hojicha pâte de fruit.”

  • Fresh Organic and local fruit

    Most brands use frozen fruit purees that come from France, we take pride in using only organic fruit from local farmers in California —the majority of them being located in less than a 100 mile radius from Oakland, celebrating the true slow food spirit!

    True vegan-friendly

    Some brands add animal gelatine and most use white sugar —which is refined with bone char—, we only use apple pectin and organic cane sugar. Our fruit jellies are the perfect vegan gummy alternative.

    We keep it simple

    Our pâte de fruits don’t have any preservatives, colorants or flavorings (natural or artificial), their vibrants colors and intense flavors come solely from organic fruit from sunny California!

    Less sugar

    Traditional recipes contain more sugar than ours, we respect the French tradition by using the same method, but —with a lot of testing— we’ve reduced the amount of sugar to just enough for these fruit jellies to set, letting the fruit shine.

    Packed with fruit

    Our pâte de fruits could also be call “candy of nature” because they are packed with fruit, containing up to 70% in each sweetie!

    Local ingredients

    We firmly believe buying local not only supports local producers (aiding in the local economy), it is also more earth friendly by emitting less carbon emissions through transportation —that’s why we only use organic fruit from California farmers and spirits from local distilleries in the Bay Area. For other ingredients that are harvested abroad, like tea, we make sure they are Fairtrade and Organic.
