Beau Bien Fine Foods
For kids and adults alike, peanut butter (or whatever nut butter you like) and jelly is the childhood comfort food par excellence. Yet grape, strawberry and raspberry can strike boredom on the palates of many. Noelle Lothamer and Molly O'Meara are creating fascinating, mouth-watering small-batch fruit preserves and jams. Peach chipotle, roasted strawberry rhubarb and pear rosemary compote are just a few of the varieties. Made with mostly local or regional produce, Beau Bien's preserves make PB&J exciting again. And for parents with adventurous children, these jams are the perfect introduction to handcrafted foods.
From what I understand, the jam place you mentioned sold out of jam at the wonderful Holiday Bazaar event. I was able to get some fantastic jam (Peach Rosemary, Strawberry Balsamic, and more) from the Slow Jam stand at Eastern Market. Not only is their jam made here they source 100% Michigan produce and sugar.
