Our story

Kristine Landry

Miss Marmelades

My professional background has nothing to do with food and I want you to know that I have absolutely no formal culinary training.

I have worked in the hospitality industry in the Outaouais region for over 20 years. It was my love of gardening and my amazing organic vegetable garden that made me develop my passion for marmalades and preserves.

With an organic vegetable garden overflowing with fresh products each summer that I found myself with an enormous amount of fruits and vegetables. «Waste not, want not!» my mother always said, so I had to figure out a way of preserving all this produce.

After asking my mother and my aunt Murielle for advice, I started looking for recipes.

Our first marmelade

Marmelade Orange et courgette Miss Marmelades fait au Québec

This recipe comes to me from my late Aunt Murielle, a combination of zucchini and orange it will suprise you ! You will find this marmalade in our seasonal product from mid-July to Septembre only.

Zucchinis???

spoon

Of all my marmalades, my zucchini marmalade has raised the most eyebrows. Zucchinis? In marmalade? Well yes, it’s delicious! Combined with oranges and lemons the taste is wonderful with a twist.

I also offer you more traditional marmalades, orange & Cointreau, a beautiful pink grapefruit marmalade and our famous pear & ginger.

Another of my discoveries comes from a bumper crop of Jamaican hot peppers during the 2010 summer. My hot pepper jelly can be used has a marinade for chicken or pork and is also delicious with cheeses and pâtés.

Well enjoy, and if you have any questions or comments about any of my products, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Bon appétit!
