After one taste of this rich, nuanced maple syrup from BLiS, you’ll call that lady living in your pantry Mrs. Butterworth-less. BLiS sources this syrup from a maple orchard in Michigan, where it’s selected from an exclusive, single-barrel stock. B-grade maple syrup may sound like it wasn’t good enough to score an A, but don’t be fooled; a B-rating actually means a darker, richer syrup than A-grade. That means it’s not only a great breakfast condiment, but also a perfect ingredient for baking.
Give them a little extra for their holiday pancakes and try the BLiS Tahitian Vanilla-Infused Maple Syrup. A whole Tahitian vanilla bean gives this syrup rich flavor. Bonus: they can keep the bean to add sweet maple-vanilla flavor to future sauces and glazes!
