Turqle is a good food story...
We believe in making flavours with good foundations and delightful accents. That is why we put in the '10,000 kitchen hours' to get it just right!
The flavour heart of our sauces and condiments come from real vegetables: sweet potatoes, carrots, peppers, onions, garlic and chilli. With this much fresh stuff, it also means there are that many more people involved, and each bit of extra human attention adds to the life of the sauce.
Spice blends are part art, part craft, part luck and part magic. The secret however, lies in the balance - it has to be just right, and only real people can make that judgement.
In spice blends, the 'slightly better than the rest' depth, comes from the 'praise singers' - the bits that add the nuances... those accents that spike little pops of salt, or sweet or acid or green-herbiness. So Lemon Pepper is not just lemon and pepper - its the garlic, chives, lemon and orange peel, the bit of salt and spots of lemon and orange oil that turn it into 'friendship spice'...
Turqle brands include Cape Treasures, Ukuva and The Savoury. We enjoy building special projects (and by now, we're pretty good at it!) and we pack products under private, Fair Trade labels.
