An artisanal process

Food Crayon are handmade, in small batches in the kitchen of our manufacturing workshop located in the South-West of Montreal, facing the Lachine Canal. It is an artisanal process during which we mix natural ingredients: infusions, spices, vegetable juices and fruit purees. After heating them to the right temperature, we add agar-agar, a vegan gelling agent extracted from seaweed to give them the desired texture. The salt and cider apple vinegar in the recipe allow a natural preservation of 12 months.
