ChefsBest Quality in Craft Award
We’re excited to expand our mission of guiding consumers to the best tasting products in the grocery store by endorsing artisan brands like Betsy’s Best.
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) October 19, 2016
In a blind taste test of almond butter with inclusions conducted by Certified Master Tasters at the ChefsBest Center for Taste in San Francisco, Betsy’s Best® Gourmet Almond Butter surpassed quality standards to become the inaugural recipient of the newly established ChefsBest Quality in Craft Award.
According to ChefsBest’s Certified Master Tasters, Betsy’s Best Gourmet Almond Butter has a rich texture that is both crunchy and thick with strong notes of cinnamon, almond and toasted characters. It remained flavorful when served on whole wheat toast and was defined as both sweet and salty. These characteristics are what led to the product surpassing quality standards as compared to the quality definition defined by the expert panel at the start of the evaluation.
The Quality in Craft Award is the newest award in the ChefsBest portfolio. Launched in August, the award utilizes the same proprietary judging method used when determining the prestigious and nationally recognized ChefsBest Best Taste and Excellence awards.
“We’re extremely proud to honor Betsy’s Best Gourmet Almond Butter with the first ChefsBest Quality in Craft Award,” said ChefsBest President and CEO Lisa Liguori. “High-quality products like their gourmet almond butter are exactly the kind of products we had in mind when the award was created. We’re excited to expand our mission of guiding consumers to the best tasting products in the grocery store by endorsing artisan brands like Betsy’s Best.”
Betsy’s Best, a Florida-based manufacturer of gourmet nut and seed butters, was founded by registered dietitian Betsy Opyt in 2012. Their gourmet products are currently sold in nearly 2,000 stores located throughout the United States and also available through their website and online retailers including Amazon.
“I first started making Betsy’s Best Gourmet Almond Butter in a blender in my kitchen with the idea of producing a healthy all-natural nut butter that my daughter would love. To be endorsed by the professional tasters at ChefsBest is truly amazing,” stated Betsy Opyt, a certified dietitian and founder of Betsy’s Best. “It is truly an honor to have earned the ChefsBest Quality in Craft Award. The award validates our mission of delivering a unique combination of a sophisticated, gourmet flavor profile while using only all-natural super food ingredients. We hope the Quality in Craft Award motivates foodies everywhere to give our almond butter a try.”
