UGLY DUCK QUINCE PASTE

Quince paste - the godmother of all fruit pastes - deserves a spot on every classic cheese and charcuterie platter. You can never go wrong with quince paste since it matches any soft or hard cheese.

Our quince paste is soft set with a sweet, fruity note. Our soft set texture matches the soft texture of cheese, it won't break your crackers, won't stick awkwardly to your teeth and is created to be spread - not cut.

Why so much waste?

Most retailers reject any fruit or vegetable that are non-standard size, shape or colour. Large commercial growers and small organic farmers alike often face a huge problem selling their not-to-standard fruit and vegetables. Due to the short shelf life of fresh produce, a lot of fresh food ends up in landfill.

In order to prevent this unnecessary wastage, Ugly Duck comes to the rescue!

At Ugly Duck Fine Foods, we believe that food should not be wasted and we therefore source our fresh ingredients farm direct, gathering up their imperfect and surplus produce. To us, the taste and freshness of our ingredients are the only qualities that matter, odd shapes and sizes don’t.
