Pates de Fruits
Pure fruit. Intense flavor. A timeless confection.
A Parisian Classic, Perfected
These jewel-like French confections have been celebrated for generations, and even The New York Times praised Cranberry Sweets’ pâtes de fruits as “superb”, comparing them to the classic Parisian candies found at renowned shops like Hédiard and Fauchon. At Cranberry Sweets, we’ve perfected the craft using a method that’s as slow as it is rewarding.
You wouldn’t add cornstarch to a glass of your favorite fruit juice — so why would you want it in your favorite fruit candy? We never use starch or gelatin to thicken these fruit jellies, and that’s what sets pâtes de fruits apart from ordinary gummy candies.
What Makes Pâtes de Fruits Special
- Weeks-long slow reduction process for concentrated flavor
- No starch or gelatin — pure fruit texture without gummy fillers
- Flavored only with real fruit juices, wines, beers, or ciders
- No gluten (exclusive of beer-based varieties)
- No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives
- No high fructose corn syrup — only pure cane sugar
Sparkling, fruit-forward, and tender — a little taste of Paris from the Oregon coast.
