Spoon Sweets
Spoon sweets are a traditional offering in Greek homes. Each family would naturally preserve their home-grown fruit and serve it to guests on a spoon with a tall glass of water. Spoon sweets are also great as toppings over Greek yoghurt, ice cream or cheesecake to name a few ideas.
Fruit preserves in sugar syrup have been a long standing tradition in Greece. High quality fresh fruits are gently boiled and then preserved in syrup retaining the colour, aroma and taste of the fruit. Commonly known as spoon sweets due to the traditional way of serving it as a well filled teaspoon in a small dish with cold water nowadays are used as healthy spread, to top fresh fruit, in baked goods like cakes, as toppings over ice cream, yoghurt and cheeses.
