ABOUT IZZYBELLE SAUCES
We are committed to making products that allow our customers to maintain healthy lifestyles and eating habits. We search for the best local ingredient suppliers we can find. We use natural and organic products as much as possible. We are compliant with Whole Foods Quality Standards for Unacceptable Food Ingredients. Izzybelle does not use preservatives or add any chemicals to our sauces. We publish the nutritional statements for each of our sauces as a service to our customers.
Our sauces are meant to be a treat. For those concerned about diet, a little can go a long way. We suggest that you combine them with fruits and light desserts for a healthful ending to a special meal. Our original sauce contains a scant 57 calories per serving of one tablespoonful, and has only three grams of fat. That tablespoon is perfect for one scoop of your favorite frozen dessert, or drizzles beautifully over freshly cut fruit.
Fine quality chocolate in its many manifestations has become one of our best-loved foods today. We hope Izzybelle Chocolate Sauce will allow you to indulge in one of your favorite foods, guilt free, while enjoying its velvety taste and rich flavor.
Because we don't use emulsifiers, our sauces may separate a bit during storage. We recommend that you stir them after opening for the first time, and store them in the refrigerator after first use. The sauces may be gently heated in a microwave or double boiler to become pourable. They will be fudge-like in consistency when refrigerated.
How We Make Them
At Izzybelle, we don't believe that quality stops with the best ingredients. We make small batches of each sauce using just-in-time ingredients purchases. We hand process each of our sauces. Each batch may vary minutely in taste, but what does not vary is the consistency of their quality.
Our Packaging
Our Earth already holds too much "stuff" (read that as litter!) We have made a decision to bottle our sauce in simple but attractive glass jars with lug lids, in the hope that our customers will find numerous ways to recycle our packaging. We also have designed our gift packs to look enticing and be strong enough to be re-used many times before being discarded.
Where It All Begins
Chocolate comes from the cacao bean. Cacao is actually the seed of a fruit of an Amazonian tree that was brought to Central America hundreds of years ago. The cacao bean is considered one of the most complex foods on the planet. The beans grow inside pods surrounded by a pulp that must ferment under controlled conditions to produce the best flavor and aroma.
