Brighten your plate with our red cabbage, tahini, and maple slaw. A dazzling side dish that’s as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate – ideal for any occasion, from summer BBQs to everyday meals.   

This isn’t your average coleslaw! The crisp shredded red cabbage and finely sliced red onion create a fantastic base of texture and flavour. An extra layer of freshness comes from a ribbon of carrot and courgette, and it adds a visual appeal to every bite.   

The dressing is where the slaw really shines; a blend of tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, and the subtle natural sweetness of pure Canadian maple syrup.   

It’s a vibrant, vegetarian, and utterly delicious way to add a burst of freshness to any spread.

More about maple

The colour and flavour of maple syrup changes in subtle ways during the seasonal harvest

At the start of the sugaring season, the syrup is generally clear, with a light, sweet taste. It becomes darker with a caramelised flavour as the season progresses throughout the spring.

An unopened can of maple syrup keeps for many years

Once the can is opened, syrup should be kept in an airtight container in a cool place.

Maple spread doesn't contain any butter or dairy products

Like all 100% pure maple products, maple spread comes from the sap of the maple tree — that’s all.
