Recipes with redcurrants
The redcurrant can be left intact to use as a garnish. A string of these shiny berries makes all the difference to a dessert or cake. They are also a popular ingredient in sauces or jam.

Where do redcurrants come from?
The redcurrants with the EAT ME label you see in the shops come from different parts of the world. Growers can be found in the Netherlands, but also in the south of Europe or in South America. Which is handy, as they can be enjoyed all year round.
How sustainable are redcurrants?
Why use plastic packaging when cardboard can do the job? Cardboard provides the same protection the fruits need, but the material can be recycled. That's why we supply redcurrants in a cardboard shaker punnet. Just as sturdy, much more sustainable. And it not only reduces plastic use, but also CO2 emissions. The dimensions of the punnet means that 65% more fit on one pallet.
