Remember when I raved about this absolutely incredible, raw honey?
For as long as I can remember, my family has vacationed on the lake in Northern Michigan every summer. It might just be my most favorite place in the entire world.
Can you blame me?
One of our traditions is visiting American Spoon and tasting all of their wonderful preserves, dried fruits and other goodies.
Honestly, I have never had better dried cherries or blueberry preserves anywhere, ever. They also have amazing recipes for each product listed on their website!
Some of my favorites include:
Pumpkin Butter (I was eating this way, way before I ever knew pumpkin butter was cool. I’m talking like, 10 years ago.)
Dried Cherries (my absolute FAVORITE!!)
That is just a start. See, I have tried every product because if you have ever been to American Spoon, you will know they have samples of absolutely everything. Going there is such a treat.
They have beautiful gift sets and packages that make excellent Holiday gifts – whether it is for a family member, a co-worker, a business, or just yourself. I hope you all can start your Christmas shopping a little early at American Spoon.
Any Michigan natives or vacationers out there? I would love to chat and reminisce about my time in Boyne City, Petosky, Harbor Springs and surrounding areas. Drop me a line!

I think we’ve talked about this before….I spent many years in Petoskey- we used to have a cabin on Walloon. And when I was a kid- I went to camp on Walloon. In those days it was called Huntingdon and Sherwood (the boys camp)
I was there when American Spoon opened their little storefront. You could smell the goodies cooking for blocks away. I still get up there once a year. And buy their products constantly.

Oh my goodness they all look delish. I’ve always been a sucker for a good apple butter though – I know, I’m such a bore sometimes!

I think my first choice would be the ginger pear butter, but really it’s so hard to choose!

Sour cherry for definite! I moved to Michigan about 4 years ago and have been loving every minute of it. I just explored norther Michigan this summer and had an amazing time. I found a wonderful place called Fustini’s in Traverse City that is a tasting bar for olive oils and balsamics. Check them out online at fustinis.com. Thanks for letting me know about American Spoon…can’t wait to try their goodies!
