Surrounded by a flurry of various cannabis products, there is one delightfully chewy sweet that stands out among the rest: Pâte de Fruit. It is a classic French candy made from a pure blend of fruit into a paste-like texture.
Current and future canna-gourmands, get excited!
In this blog, we’re taking a closer look at Pâte de Fruit and the particulars regarding all the goodness our California vegan edibles have to offer.
Pâte de Fruit: An Ancient French Delicacy
First, let’s talk origins. Pâte de fruit is candy product that is known to originate from 10th century France. Interestingly, Pâte de fruits became a common confectionary good as a way to preserve any extra fruits from the harvest season.
Once described as confitures sèches, fruits such as apricots or strawberries would be picked along local orchards and preserved to make these candied fruit treats, to be enjoyed throughout the winter season.
Additionally, the French term “pâte de fruits” translates to “fruit paste,” which today can be used to describe the treat’s overall sweetness and texture.
Over time, pâte de fruit has grown to be a beloved candy sweet that has advanced in different flavors, shapes, and packages – and recently, even included in cannabis edible infusions.
Cannabis Wellness with a Modern Twist
According to Headset data reported by MJBiz Daily, gummies continue to dominate the legal cannabis edibles market in the country (resulting in $976 million last year), with overall edibles sales totaling $1.38 billion in 2021.
Among the varying edible products being purchased by cannabis consumers, many have shown interest in the benefits of microdosing.
Consumers are showing interest in products that offer a smaller, more microdosed version of either THC, CBD, or other major cannabinoids.
The mission for Minerva’s Vegan Pâte de Fruit edibles came from this rise in the demand and the lack of gourmet and vegan options available in cannabis dispensaries.
By combining the love and passion of gourmet cooking with all-natural, vegan ingredients, Minerva’s Pâte de Fruit edibles are created to provide a unique microdose experience for all consumers and lifestyles.
More About Our Vegan Edibles: Pectin Power
Each of our cannabis pâte de fruit products are made with complex flavors made from our all-natural fruit purees.
No artificial colors, flavors, or additives…only the purest enhancement of THC & CBD.
By combining unexpected flavors and all-natural, vegan ingredients, we are proud to provide some of the best tasting edibles from California.
Additionally, the main thickener in pâte de fruit is often pectin, which is a plant-based starch derivative. Compared to gelatin, which is made from animal protein, pectin is a vegan ingredient and is used in all of our cannabis edibles.
