We have a lot to celebrate in our great
country and beautiful province. The sun will be shining
on us (we're sure it will!) as we wave our flags in
our unique Canadian spirit. Just months ago the world
came together to help us celebrate this great country
of ours, now we are on our own to show we still have
the same Canadian spirit we had back in February.

New Arrivals from 'MATIZ'
Delicious Spanish Tortas: traditional
Spanish crisp bread made with 24% Spanish olive oil.
They are produced entirely by hand - each torta with
its own distinctive hand-patted shape.
The
traditional Sugared Torta with a touch of anise
is a sweet and delicious healthy snack. The Almond
Tortas have a generous layer of almond pieces sprinkled
atop a Sugared Torta. The Cinnamon Sugared Torta,
is more addictive than potato chips, and a whole lot
better for you!
Fruit Breads: 100% natural fruit
"breads" come from the hilly terrain of La Vera in the
Spanish region of Extremadura. Matiz Fig Bread
uses only the finest plump figs combined with walnuts,
honey and natural spices. Matiz Apricot Bread
combines delicious Spanish apricots with rich Marcona
Almonds. Matiz Date Bread is a killer combination
of sweet dates and walnuts. Three healthy sweet-tooth
satisfiers that pair well with cheese or hold their
own on the dessert table.
Marcona Almonds: are known as the
chef's choice in almonds. Their higher fat content gives
them an unsurpassed taste and texture. Fantastic in
many recipes, with salads, meats, desserts and baking.
Or wonderful on their own; paired with your favorite
cheese and a glass of wine.
Quince
Paste: The quince tree originates from the Middle
East and symbolizes luck, fertility, and love. In antiquity
it was one of the most sought after medicinal plants.
Traditionally in Spain, quince paste, which is obtained
by combining cooked quince and sugar, is paired with
cheese and bread. The Matiz Catalan Quince Paste is
rich in flavor and deep in color. This traditional product
has exceptional artisan quality.
