Bernard Certified Organic Syrup a natural alternative to 100% pure maple syrup

Sugaring-off season is fast approaching! However, for the past few years Mother Nature has not been cooperating in meeting the ever-increasing global demand for pure maple syrup. Since 2007, the yearly demand for maple syrup world-wide has exceeded 120 million pounds, yet barely 80 million pounds are being produced. Gone are the years of overabundant inventories, where barrels of syrup were piled high in warehouses.

What does the 2009 harvest have in store for us? Will we experience another springtime cut short by unpredictable greenhouse effects that limit maple syrup production? One thing is clear: unless we have a record-breaking harvest, the number of trees that have been tapped will not produce enough syrup to meet the demand, and this, perhaps for several years to come.

In view of these market conditions and the uncertainty they create, we at Bernard and Sons have decided to use our expertise as Master Sugar Makers to give Mother Nature a hand. Two years after we began testing our formula for a natural substitute for 100% pure maple syrup, we are proud to introduce Bernard Certified Organic Syrup to Quebec consumers. Savour its fine maple taste and rich texture, and be assured that it contains no preservatives or artificial colour. Bernard Certified Organic Syrup is a healthy replacement for 100% pure maple syrup at a fraction of the cost.
