Sauces & Spreads

A fresh take on a favorite summer cocktail! Our Margarita Mix is full of flavor, and the combination of lime, lemon, and grapefruit juices give it a nuanced complexity that's bolstered by orange oil and a touch of agave. Just add one part tequila to two parts mix for the perfect margarita! As Seen In Midwest Living, May/June 2020:
"We love the margarita mix from American Spoon in northern Michigan. Barely sweetened and made with fresh citrus, it crushes anything from the supermarket."

Brush dazzlingly sophisticated cherry flavor over pork tenderloin, grilled duck or chicken breast, roasted leg of lamb, or even grilled brats. Taste What They're Talking About: Our Cherry BBQ Grilling Sauce is one of Saveur magazine's "barbecue sauces we can't live without."

"Full of tartness from Michigan-grown cherries, Petoskey, Michigan's, American Spoon Cherry BBQ Grilling Sauce has fresh orange zest and a touch of cumin. Delicious on pork loin, chicken, or duck." -Saveur

Two of Michigan's most beloved summer fruits together in one jar. This perfectly balanced Fruitlands salsa is one of the most popular items in our collection. It's brimming with whole Montmorency cherries and soft chunks of hand-cut Red Haven peaches. It's a staple around our tasting table and in our homes, and it's delicious served simply with tortilla chips and avocado, or alongside grilled chicken or pork.

The seductive sweetness distilled from Michigan Sugar Maples commingled with zesty tomatoes, spices and seasonings is fabulous on beef, pork, poultry and baked beans. The balanced flavor of this maple bbq sauce has almost universal appeal!

A bold, smoky, and deeply complex take on classic tomato-based barbecue sauce (think Kansas City-style). This thick sauce is the perfect companion to ribs and robust grilled meats, and it’s just as delicious on poultry.

A mildly hot and sweet, translucent orange jelly flecked with colorful bits of peppers. Spoon a jar over baked brie as it comes from the oven for something beautiful and heavenly. Also truly delicious on gorgonzola or almost any soft cheese.

A classic Chocolate Fudge Sauce for classic sundaes. Ours features deeply delicious craft chocolate from Askinosie Chocolate in Missouri, with rich Midwestern cream and a hint of vanilla. Almost everyone at American Spoon has admitted to standing in front of the fridge and eating this straight out of the jar. We just can't resist its full chocolaty flavor and thick, silky texture. Spoon it over ice cream, smooth it over cakes, or dip fresh berries in it. Or, like us, just grab a spoon. A 2016 Good Food Awards Winner.
