Maple tree sap is gathered in the spring and boiled to evaporate the water and create syrup. In fact, it takes 40 liters of maple water evaporated to produce 1 liter of syrup. Maple products are naturally fat free, and contain minerals such as potassium, calcium, and magnesium, as well as organic acids.
Cleary's Pure Maple Syrup is medium grade, so it has a stronger, more caramelized taste than lighter syrups. This makes it so flavorful topped over pancakes, waffles, and french toast. It is also great for cooking into desserts and confections.
