Maple Sugars and Flakes

The harvest is about six weeks long in March and April every year.

Yes, maple flakes are a delicious way for the entire family to sweeten things up! Unlike honey (which shouldn’t be given to children under the age of 12 months) and artificial sweeteners, maple flakes are a completely safe and natural sweetener for all ages.

STEP 1: DEHYDRATION
We dehydrate maple syrup in a vacuum room at a relatively low temperature. This produces a very dry product that will not cake over time, preserves a delicate maple taste and displays an extra-crisp texture.

STEP 2: SIFTING AND GRINDING
Next, flakes are ground and sifted to obtain desired particle size, 0-2 mm for sugar and 2-7 mm for flakes.

STEP 3: BAGGING
Finally, the product is packed in different formats. Each package is identified by a batch number for tracking purposes.
