Dessert Sauces Fit For a King
The company "embraces the idea that business serves a purpose beyond dollars and cents. To that end, we are committed to enhancing the lives of our co-workers, nurturing the community in which we live and striving to be more “green”. They support local organizations including the community food bank, hospital, fire department, local schools and many more. Their chocolate and cocoa are domestically processed – reducing transportation needs and increasing support of domestic businesses. The King’s Cupboard’s most recent “green” initiative was to launch a line of organic products in an effort to support organic farming Among the mostly chocolate products produced by The King's Cupboard are fifteen dessert sauces. We sampled the following five and found them to be smooth, rich, not overly sweet, and with a homemade taste – delicious. The added flavors, such as bourbon and chili, were subtle and not overpowering. The sauces are versatile, can be thinned in the microwave to be pourable, and are excellent when used in baking. And how did we go about tasting them? Why, with a large tablespoon of course – straight from the jar! Isn't that the only way? Cream Caramel Sauce: Fresh Montana cream, sweet butter and deeply caramelized sugar are blended with Madagascar Bourbon vanilla to create a sophisticated spin on a childhood favorite. For an easy dessert, just drizzle on ice cream, brownies, cakes, crepes, yogurt, or fresh fruit. Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce: Their signature sauce melts beautifully and cleanly in the mouth revealing complex chocolate flavors. Drizzle on ice cream, cakes and brownies. Stir into coffee and milkshakes; use as a fondue or simply savor a spoonful! Organics Hot Fudge Sauce: Made with pure and simple organic ingredients like fresh cream, sweet butter and Madagascar Bourbon vanilla, this sauce is creamy and smooth with a classic caramel flavor. The sauces are certified kosher dairy (OU-D) and do not contain preservatives, emulsifiers, artificial colors or flavors, and are trans-fat free. They are on the pricey side but well worth the added cost. Considering the price of good chocolate, cream, Madagascar Bourbon vanilla, etc, and the homemade taste – we are content to let The King's Cupboard prepare the dessert sauce. We love all of the sauces but are addicted to the Cream Caramel Sauce and put a heaping spoonful into our hot coffee...so yummy! A perfect hostess gift or just be good to yourself. From The King's Cupboard, "In essence, we appreciate our many blessings and are committed to making the world a better, tastier place." We thank them for a "tastier place."
