A Step Back In Time… A Step Up In Quality.

Artuso founder Vincent F. Artuso Sr. started the American dream when he migrated to the states from Reggio di Calabria, Italy in 1930. By 1946, his dream became a reality when he proudly opened Artuso Pasty Shop in New York’s famous Little Italy section of the Bronx. With the addition of an expanding wholesale manufacturing facility, their authentic Italian desserts are shipped nationwide.

Today, Artuso’s remains a family-owned and operated New York fixture and is enjoying its fourth generation. Their commitment to superior quality has rendered countless awards and industry recognition. All of these accolades are further proof that Artuso Pastry is more than just a family success story – it’s an American success story.

Good Food c Great Heart Bob Moore and his wife, Charlee, founded Bob’s Red Mill in 1978 with the mission of bringing people back to basics with nutritious whole grains and minimally processed foods.

Charlee believed in the benefts of whole grains long before they were widely accepted, which inspired Bob to launch our mill with stone ground whole wheat four and a handful of other goods.

Since then, our company has expanded greatly, but it has never strayed from that core mission. Today, we offer more than 200 products, and we’re a leader in gluten free, non-GMO, organic and whole grain foods! We also believe in taking care of the people who helped us get here: Bob’s Red Mill is now proudly 100% employee owned, and we’re committed to upholding the values and legacy of Bob and Charlee Moore.

We invite you to explore our products: it’s our privilege to bring you Good Food with Great Heart!

A FAMILY RUN BUSINESS, DEEPLY ROOTED IN NAPLES AND ITS LAND. Since our founding in 1924, three generations of the Caputo family have produced flour in accordance with the ancient Neapolitan art of baking. The result of a fortunate incident of “backwards emigration," our mill was founded in 1924, when brothers Carmine and Pasquale Caputo returned to Capua, their hometown, after gaining work experience in the USA. When Carmine passed away, the company passed into the hands of his son, then 21-year-old Antimo Caputo.

To grow the business, Antimo moved the mill to Naples as the wheat used in the production of flour arrived by boat. Business grew and in the 1960s the first silo was constructed. When a fire devastated the mill in the 1970s, Antimo's wife Maddalena and their two sons Carmine and Eugenio rebuilt it even bigger and better than before. By the 1980s, Caputo was the gold standard for local artisans.

Caputo has been a family owned business for generations. We still use the same traditional milling technique, and treat our flour with love and respect.

Images are from Biscuit Love in Nashville, TN!

The last few decades have seen Carmine and Eugenio’s sons, Antimo and Mauro, come on board. We’ve entered markets like the United States and Japan, bolstered by our strong commitment to the culture of traditional pizza and Campanian products..

Today, our team of quality experts checks each variety in the field, so we can control and supervise our grain “from the seed to the mill.” We survey the best Italian and European wheats and every wheat variety is analyzed in our lab before purchase. Rheological and microbiological analysis are made on various samples in order to ensure they meet our quality and safety standards. A team of skillful operators checks the main characteristics of every blend, so we can truly stand behind every bag of flour we package.

Our mission is to bring you expertly crafted flours for every purpose. Selection and blending of wheat is a skill, and it’s one we’ve proudly handed down from generation to generation. We want to be a point of inspiration for you in the way we craft our ingredients and hold them to the highest standards. We’re constantly innovating, evolving, and perfecting our craft!

This is the art of Caputo, the Mill of Naples.

GLUTEN FREE Premium Flours and Baking Mixes, from Chef Thomas Keller.

Cup4Cup’s story began in 2010 at THOMAS KELLER’S lauded restaurant, THE FRENCH LAUNDRY. It was here that chefs developed a gluten free

Cornet of Salmon Tartare in response to diners who didn’t want to miss out on this menu highlight. The gluten free cornet tasted just like the original recipe. This culinary creation was a turning point.

The result of the kitchen experiment yielded Cup4Cup—the frst 1:1 gluten free four that eliminated complicated conversions and delivered premium taste, texture and performance. Just as its name suggests, Cup4Cup replaces traditional all-purpose four or whole wheat four in any recipe, cup-for-cup and gram-for-gram.

Cup4Cup also provides easy-to-use baking mixes that deliver the same consistency and texture of regular four. Customers can utilize our library of sweet and savory recipes developed by our chefs for the growing gluten free community, their friends and families.

Dufour Pastry Kitchens co-founders and co-owners, Judi Arnold and Carla Krasner, left Carnegie Hall and classical concert management, looking for a change from promoting the careers of others. Judi was a high energy salesperson who was also a great cook, and Carla had a flair for baking, furthered by the culinary classes she took during a college year in France. They decided to combine their talents and rented a table in a caterer’s kitchen where they set out to experiment with savory pastry recipes. When the caterer asked if they could make puff pastry hors d’oeuvres for her events, the revelation that the caterer did not make everything in house led them to discover their niche, and Dufour Pastry Kitchens was born. The name Dufour, a combination of the French words “du” and “four”- from the oven - was a nod to the appeal of French cuisine and to the French pastry they were perfecting.

In 1983 prepared frozen hors d’oeuvres were a rarity. Encouraged by great reactions from the chefs who tasted their samples, Judi and Carla launched their line of creative, high quality, frozen savory pastries for the food service trade, starting from a 900 square foot storefront in the still gritty Gansevoort Meat Market. Judi began marketing and immediately sold the St. Regis Hotel. Other prestigious hotels soon came on board, grateful for help with their quality banquet menus. Numerous caterers including the original Balducci’s, Bloomingdale’s and Macy’s all sold Dufour products under their own brand.

Eventually chefs began to ask for the dough that Dufour made to encase their hors d’oeuvres. The resulting product lines, all-butter puff pastry and pie doughs as well as assorted raw, hand-crafted tart shells became the mainstays of the business. The complete range of Dufour products has been awarded 19 Sofi awards. The classic puff pastry has won in both the Best Baked Good/Baking Ingredient category and in the overall category of Best Classic. The recipe has not changed since the company’s founding: butter from an upstate New York dairy, flour, water, salt, and lemon juice with an over 50% butter to flour ratio. Four traditional book-fold turns produce the perfect flaky pastry.

Dufour Pastry Kitchens now operates from a modern facility in the Bronx, not far from Chefs’ Warehouse.

100% women owned, the employees are over 2/3 women and 75% Bronx residents. They have been

awarded

the Certificate of Merit from the Bronx Borough President for their contribution to the economic development of the Bronx. True to their roots, the creative team at Dufour continues to develop savory and sweet pastries while producing the best available puff pastry, pie doughs and hand-crafted tart shells to encourage creativity and innovation in every kitchen.

Delicious and Wholesome Tortillas for every dish, every taste, every occasion and every lifestyle Harbar was founded in Jamaica Plains, Massachusetts in 1986 by cousins Maria and Ricardo, who were one of the first of their time in the US to believe that the best tasting tortillas came from using natural ingredients resulting in the cleanest recipe possible. Although the company changed ownership during the years, Harbar has always remained a heritage-rich, family business with a commitment to delicious and wholesome tortillas, wraps and related products.

Our two production facilities are in Canton, MA and serve the 50 states and 3 continents. Inspired by our traditional roots, we bake a large family of products ranging from traditional corn and wheat tortillas to a variety of better-for-you options like low carb, gluten free and grain free, among others. Our products are offered under 3 brands: Maria and Ricardo’s, Mayan Farm and Wrappy that serve the food service segment.

After 35 years of operation, Harbar continues as a minority owned business that is committed to innovation, quality and service. We are passionate about our products and are always eager to share our tortilla ‘goodness’ with our customers, partners and friends.

Nestled on the edge of a lush valley with the Alps standing proudly in the distance, Hero has its humble beginnings in the small, picturesque town of Lenzburg, Switzerland. It was here where two friends — Gustav Henckell and Carl Roth — joined forces to open up a local fruit and vegetable conserve factory under the shadow of the Lenzburg Castle.

Founded in 1886, Hero has a long history of sharing nature’s bounty with the world. Henckell and Roth captivated consumers by conserving the goodness they found in nature, and we pride ourselves on continuing to carry that legacy into the future. We preserve fruit at its peak ripeness, which transports consumers to the very instant in which the perfectly ripe produce was plucked fresh from the orchard, meadow, or feld. This was the way it had always been done, and it is the way it will always be done. We want to bring this heritage to today's consumers who share Hero’s love of naturally good food.

Over the past 130 years, Hero has grown from the small Swiss factory into the premier producer of Preserves, Fruit Spreads, Baking Jams, Gels, Glazes, Finishing Dessert Sauces, and Highly Concentrated Fruit Paste Compounds. Hero services over 250 million customers in 30 countries, making us a global leader in this industry.

Since the beginning of Les vergers Boiron, there was a passion for fruit.

The Boiron family, originally from the Ardèche region of France, started a fruit trading company in 1942. A few years later, business took off and the Boiron Frères company rapidly developed. It followed the move from Les Halles in Paris to the Rungis market in 1969. Pierre Boiron, the founder's son, then launched a major innovation. Dessert and pastry chefs were looking for practical and consistent use of products all-year round. The CEO of Les vergers Boiron then created a fruit processing activity - heat-treated specifically to each fruit, then deep frozen - which is the best technique still today to keep the flavor, texture and freshness of the fruit intact. Professionals enthusiastically welcomed these ready-to-use fruit purees.

In 2005, Alain Boiron, Pierre's son, took over at Les vergers Boiron and in 2010, all the activities moved to an ultra-modern site in Valence, Drôme. Today, there are over 50 flavors of frozen fruit purées available all of which are 100% all-natural, GMO-free and have no preservatives, additives, or thickening agents. Les vergers Boiron experts select only the finest varieties of fruit from the best regions worldwide. Then these fruits, harvested at maturity, undergo a unique blending technique which guarantees product consistency throughout the seasons.

“76 years ago, my grandfather founded the company Boiron Frères SA. As the inventors of frozen fruit puree, we have continued to innovate by developing our range to support pastry chefs, cooks, and bartenders from all over the world daily with excellent fruit solutions. Aware of what a privilege it was to take charge of the company in 1990, I continue the expansion of the business with passion. Based in the heart of the orchards of Valence, France, the company now has a subsidiary in the United States, an office in Hong Kong and shines alongside great chefs in more than 80 countries. To have exceptional fruit solutions, you can count on our unique expertise in blending and processing fruits, on the producers who provide us with fruits of rare quality, on our network of distributors around the globe and the women and men of the company without whom nothing would be possible. From hors d’oeuvres to dessert and drinks our fruit solutions guide your inspiration and release your creativity. Let’s share fruit at its best together!” Alain Boiron, Owner Get inspired at www.my-vb.com 42

McLure’s Honey and Maple Products is a quality-focused supplier of pure maple syrup, maple sugar, honey, and honeycomb growing to national prominence from modest New England roots.

Continuing a family tradition that dated back three generations to Civil War times, George McLure produced and packed pure maple syrup in New Hampshire and Vermont as a hobbyist. In 1976, when his son Dave came home to Littleton, NH after serving in the Air Force, they formed a partnership and expanded into a family business.

As excellence in product and service became a McLure’s distinction, a new plant was built about 50 yards from the site of the original sugarhouse to support the growth. In time, e‰orts were focused on packing maple syrup, sourcing high quality syrup from the New England region and Canada. With a customer base valuing pure, natural sweeteners, honey product lines became a successful addition.

In 1997, McLure’s Honey and Maple Products gained the backing of family-owned, Women’s Business Enterprise, Dutch Gold Honey, Inc, based in Lancaster County, PA. The company’s philanthropy arm, The Gamber Foundation, supports honey and maple industry research and sustainability e‰orts as well as charities in the Littleton, NH and Lancaster, PA communities.

Today, McLure's is an industry leading supplier and continues to operate in Littleton, NH. They o‰er honey and maple products in branded, private label, and bulk packaging formats.

Creative Beginnings…

Yann Machard was raised amid fne French cuisine, owing to the fact that several family members are French Chefs. While surrounded by all of this glorious food, Yann loved practicing the fne arts of painting and sculpting. It was eventually suggested by his family that pastry would be a wonderful way to express his artistic talents and desires and be in keeping with the family tradition of fne cuisine. So…by integrating a passion for food and creativity, the family’s frst (and only) Pastry Chef was “born.”

In the beginning of his career as a Pastry Chef, Yann worked at and with some of the top names in French Pastry including Lenotre, considered to be the best pastry shop in France.

Yann fourished in his art and decided to give America a taste of his creativity. He arrived in New York City in 1973, worked at Dumas and with Chef Maurice Bonté. He then made his way to Denver, Colorado and began a six year run at Le Petit Gourmet Catering, the premier caterer in Denver. He returned to New York as Pastry Chef for the world-famous Tavern on the Green restaurant, delighting patrons for the next four years. However, during this time, Yann saw an emerging need for quality, wholesale French Pastry as fewer and fewer culinary students were choosing pastry.

Symphony Pastry Fills a Growing Industry Need…

Out of a desire to assist restaurant pastry chefs in providing quality French pastry to patrons, Yann opened Symphony Pastry.

He decided to inspire these chefs with the delicious foundations for their creative expression with his top-quality ingredients, combined in mouthwatering and visually pleasing ways! The chefs could then creatively “fnish” these pastries and present them to their patrons plated in extraordinary fashion.

Yann loves the creativity of his trade, and loves helping Pastry Chefs by bringing them to an even higher level. You’ll fnd only the absolute best ingredients in Symphony Pastry products: imported chocolate with a minimum of 68% “cocoaliquor,” Tahitian vanilla beans, imported fruit purées, heavy cream and pure butter.

Yann will also create custom pastry upon request -- if you can envision it and “taste” it, Yann will make it for you!

Let Yann be your personal Pastry Chef - he’s here to serve you and foster your creative best!

Imagining the best of chocolate since 1922 A L L VA L R H O N A C H O CO L AT E I S 1 0 0 % T R AC E A B L E Over time, Valrhona’s sourcing team and producers have established special, long-term relationships rooted in trust. It is thanks to these producers that Valrhona has been able to develop such a unique spectrum of professional expertise and intense, distinctive favor profles within our product range.

To imagine the best of chocolate, we search the planet for the fnest cocoa. Our sourcing team selects the most unique cocoa varieties worldwide and forges long-term relationships with producers. This collaboration allows us to constantly enrich our understanding of cocoa, bringing innovations to each stage of the chocolate-making process so that we can promote aromatic diversity in cocoa. The future of cocoa lies in commitments to sustainability and traceability, made alongside our cocoa producer partners. We invest to improve the well-being of local cocoa producing communities, as well as in more sustainable cocoa growing techniques through agroforestry and the Cacao Forest program.

LIVE LONG COCOA Our two major ambitions are improving cocoa producers’ living conditions and protecting the environment. Long-term partnerships, traceability, community support projects, and actions to boost producer income are just some of the ways we are working towards this goal.

LIVE LONG ENVIRONMENT Valrhona is committed to reaching carbon neutrality by 2025 for our whole value chain from plantation to dinner plate. To meet these goals, we work to minimize greenhouse gas emissions, offsetting our remaing footprint through reforestation projects.

LIVE LONG GASTRONOMY Gastronomy is part of Valrhona’s DNA, and the future of gastronomy is sustainable development. We believe it is our responsibility to guide professionals towards more sustainable practices as they create a cuisine that is as meaningful as it is ethical, and as innovative as it is memorable.

LIVE LONG TOGETHER We are committed to helping producers and customers overcome their challenges and creating a business where our people love to work. This will only become a reality if we work together in a spirit of coproduction – which is exactly how we imagine the best of chocolate.
