Can you share with us the story behind Frescobene Foods and how it became a leader in the frozen artisan sauce industry?
Growing up in our Italian families we learned early on the importance of spending quality time with family and friends, and for both of us that centered around the table sharing great conversations and devouring delicious homemade Italian food. This tradition also instilled in us a love of food and a passion for cooking. (Which led Ann to attend Le Cordon Bleu and Lisa to start her own catering business which Ann joined a few years later) We wanted to carry on this cherished tradition with our own families, but like so many busy people these days, finding time to cook the hours-long sauces we grew up enjoying, was getting increasingly harder to do.
We knew there had to be a better way to put a delicious meal on the table without spending hours in the kitchen, and without sacrificing flavor or quality. We did just that when we created Frescobene Artisan Sauces...you see we knew our grandmothers secret weapon, the freezer. After hours of cooking we freeze our sauces in BPA free heat & serve pouches. Not only does this maintain peak freshness but it makes bringing everyone together for a mouthwatering meal effortless!
Our mission is to create memorable moments around the table with little effort. By using our authentic, homemade Italian sauces, our customers can easily bring the flavors of Italy to their family’s dinner table. Whether it’s a busy weeknight or a special occasion, Frescobene Artisan Sauces allow you to savor the taste of our Italian tradition without spending excessive time in the kitchen.
We hope you will gather your loved ones around your table with Frescobene Artisan Sauces to enjoy a delicious meal, connect and spend quality time together!
What sets Frescobene Foods' artisan sauces apart from other brands in terms of quality and taste?
Frescobene Artisan Sauces distinguish themselves from other sauces on the market with their unique qualities. Unlike jarred or fresh sauces, our sauces are frozen to maintain their peak freshness along with all the essential vitamins and minerals they provide. We use only the finest ingredients, including the #1 imported San Marzano tomato, nitrate-free Pancetta, and authentic Parmigiano Reggiano, and we never add any preservatives or sugars. Our products are also non-GMO and gluten-free. In addition to the quality of our ingredients, our packaging is innovative. Our BPA-free, FDA-approved "heat and serve" pouches enable users to heat the sauce directly in the pot of water used to cook the pasta, without any extra preparation or mess. With up to four different flavors of sauce available, you can choose the one that best suits your taste buds. And because the versatility of our products is unmatched, one can create a variety of dishes that will appeal to all palates and diets, including Keto, Paleo, Mediterranean, and WW, to name a few.
How do you ensure that Frescobene Foods' artisan sauces maintain their high quality during the freezing process?
At Frescobene Foods, we take pride in our sauces that are prepared in a USDA facility. This facility ensures the highest level of monitoring for all labor, refrigerators, and freezers to maintain quality. Our co-packer specializes in soups, sauces, and chilis that are packaged in pouches and frozen to preserve freshness. The pouches are vacuum-sealed on a hot fill machine and cooled down according to USDA guidelines. Subsequently, the pouches are frozen within a day and kept well below 0 degrees until they reach your plate, ensuring our customers will always be minutes away from enjoying a delicious, homemade-tasting sauce, which always tastes as fresh as the day it was made!
How does Frescobene Foods collaborate with local farmers and suppliers to source the best ingredients for its artisan sauces.
We collaborate with local farmers and suppliers to source the finest ingredients for our artisan sauces. Our focus is on quality, and we work closely with our partners to ensure that our customers receive only the best. We use a local butcher to source our Sweet Italian Sausage, as well as local farms for our onions, garlic and herbs.
Can you share any exciting plans or upcoming products that Frescobene Foods has in store for its customers?
One area we love working on is R & D and creating new recipes and products. We are currently working on a few new sauce flavors, meal kits, single-serve frozen entrées, and ready-made pasta cups! We can’t wait for our customers to taste all we have cooking at Frescobene!
