New York Maple At The State Fair!

Did anyone get to the New York State Fair this year? If so, I hope you came and checked out the NYS Maple Producers Association booth, home to practically everything maple! Maple ice cream, maple nuts, maple barbeque sauce, maple popcorn, maple soda, maple cream, molded maple sugar, maple dog biscuits...and the list continues! Of course one cannot forget the jug upon jug of pure sweetness itself- the syrup!

Four of us from Walling's Maple Syrup, along with other maple producers, worked in the booth on August 29th.  The four of us helped customers, gave cream samples, and worked with the ice cream, slushie, and snow cone machines.  It was a pretty busy day, with lots of people coming to get their maple fix...some for the whole year.

In the back, molded maple sugar is made fresh daily for you to purchase, and up front, several different maple products are available for sample. Let that cotton candy melt in your mouth or feel how smooth the maple cream is on your tongue.  So, if you didn't get a chance this year, put it on your list for next year and introduce yourself to NYS maple!
