We love working with limes. It's both fun and rewarding.

Fun, developing recipes and rewarding, to see the taster getting their tastebuds tickled and then to be hooked into our lime love affair.

Limes have an intense almost coconut taste.

We've blended the wonderful flavour of lime in different ways so that our range of products will compliment many styles of cooking from Mediterranean, Asian, West Indian to North African and of course New Zealand.

Limes

  • The chutneys and pickles represent ‘sweet, spicy and hot’ flavours, vital accompaniments to cheese and meats.
  • The two toast toppings are designed to balance ‘sweet and tart’ in a jar, with fig adding the comfort of home preserving. Lime Curd, reminiscent of ‘ Mum’s lemon honey’ only more intensely tangy is totally decadent and so wicked! Saffron Lime Curd is a stunning variation on the original
  • Just a Dressing – a sweet garlic vinaigrette, and the Lime and Mustard Seed Dressing, a lime-driven dressing for green salads and, as was admitted, over ‘just about everything!’ The Saffron Lime Dressing introduces the exotic flavour and colour of saffron to lime, just beautiful.
  • The cooks’ need was in mind when we launched the versatile Lime & Lemongrass Drizzle – a syrup to be drizzled over dessert cake, fresh fruit, ice-cream or in a champagne glass as well as adding to the pan-frying or marinading of fish.
  • Likewise the Lime and Chilli Plash, with its Asian-style ingredients, is a must over prawns and in any dish that requires the Asian influence.
  • The advent of Spicy Glaze is another story! A superb reduction of lime juice, fresh chilli, garlic  ......   which accompanies hot fish, spare ribs, chicken, or use as a marinade. One Irish gentleman even drinks it!
  • The Lime Cordial, a tangy concentrate is delicious as a long, cool fresh drink or with gin or vodka with ice.
  • Lime Juice, no preservatives - just as tangy as it should be.
  • Margarita Sour Mix is great in the obvious and many other cocktails
  • The two dessert toppings have so many uses. Over desserts, mixed into natural yoghurt and mixed in cocktails. Or simply with soda water. Or you could try spicing up your cereal or porridge. We can recommend it as a great way to start the day.
  • Fresh Limes are in season from March to October - firstly green then becoming yellow & more juicy.
  • Another new product in our range is vacuum-packed Preserved Lemons. Whilst new to the cooking scene for most, the preserved lemon is a versatile condiment used in lamb dishes, couscous and salads. Kaffir Lime leaves too - what more can we say about the exquisite fresh taste?

We are proud of our handmade products because we use natural ingredients with no preservatives, no additives, and no emulsifiers. We think our lime products will test your imagination and ......... are dangerously good!
