The apples and cherries in EDEN Apple Cherry Sauce are
organically grown on family owned orchards on the shores of the
Great Lakes, one of the best tree fruit growing locations in the
world due to the seasonal 'lake effect'. After years of organic
management, the healthy trees and soil in these beautiful
orchards produce the most delicious fruit we have ever tasted.
EDEN Apple Cherry Sauce is made using traditional methods.
Organic Montmorency tart cherries are washed, pitted and cooked
into a thick puree up to 30 Brix. The Brix scale is a hydrometer
scale for measuring the sugar content of a solution at a given
temperature. A select blend of apples are hand sorted and
washed, peeled and cored, and put through a mill where they are
chopped and sliced. Next they are transferred to a stainless
steel, steam injection cooker where they're cooked into sauce.
The sauce is strained, blended with the organic cherry puree and
packed in glass jars. 80 percent apple sauce and 20 percent tart
cherry puree. EDEN Organic A
