Great Sauces with Great Ingredients

Developing sauces is more an art than a science, and the key is striking the right balance of flavors. Prune ingredients aid in that balancing act by smoothing out acidity and amplifying spices. The rich texture of our ingredients also adds depth to sauces while enhancing other seasonings. In addition, we offer ways to make low-sugar sauces that everyone at the table will love.

Use these ingredients to:

  • Amplify spices
  • Reduce or replace sugar
  • Add rich color and texture
  • Lower sodium levels
  • Add sheen in place of HFCS
