If you want the deep, unmistakable taste of real maple in your kitchen, Coombs Family Farms delivers the quality and authenticity you can trust. Their maple syrup and maple sugar let you enjoy a natural sweetness that stands out in recipes or on its own.
What these actually do
Coombs Family Farms maple syrup and maple sugar add a rich, complex sweetness to food and drinks without relying on refined white sugar. Maple syrup is tapped from maple trees, then boiled down to concentrate its flavour and nutrients. Maple sugar is simply the syrup, further reduced until it crystallises. Both are naturally sweet, with subtle notes of caramel and vanilla, and contain trace minerals like manganese and zinc. Most people notice the difference straight away, especially if they’re used to standard supermarket syrups or sugars.
How to choose the right one
If you want a pourable sweetener for pancakes, desserts or drinks, go for the Coombs Family Farms Maple Syrup Grade A. It’s smooth, pours easily, and brings that classic maple flavour. If you’re after a dry sweetener to sprinkle on oatmeal, bake with, or use as a substitute for cane sugar, the Maple Sugar 100% Pure is the better fit. Maple sugar is more concentrated, so a little goes a long way. Both products are organic, but if you’re comparing, maple syrup works best for topping or mixing into liquids, while maple sugar is great for recipes that call for a dry sugar or where you want a subtle maple note without extra moisture.
How to get the most out of it
For maple syrup, use it as a topping for breakfast foods, swirl it into yoghurt, or stir it into coffee or tea. It’s also ideal for glazing roasted vegetables or meats. With maple sugar, replace a portion of white sugar in baking for a richer flavour, or dust it over fruit and cereals. Both products are quite sweet, so start with less than you think you’ll need and adjust to taste. Store them in a cool, dry place, and refrigerate syrup after opening to keep it fresh. Avoid heating maple sugar too aggressively, as it can clump or burn faster than regular sugar.
