Bauman’s Blended Fruit Butters bring complementary fruits together in smooth, concentrated spreads with layers of sweet, tart, and orchard-ripe flavor. Made in the Pennsylvania Dutch tradition, the fruit is slowly cooked until it naturally develops a rich texture without relying on pectin.

Choose Cranberry Pear for a balance of bright cranberry and mellow pear, Honey Peach for gentle orchard sweetness, Strawberry Raspberry for bold berry flavor, or Strawberry Rhubarb for a classic sweet-tart combination.

Spread them over toast, biscuits, pancakes, or muffins; swirl them into oatmeal and yogurt; pair them with cheese and crackers; or use them in thumbprint cookies, salad dressings, glazes, and desserts.

Available flavors: Cranberry Pear, Honey Peach, Strawberry Raspberry, and Strawberry Rhubarb.

Why We Chose It

There’s a Reason It’s Here.

We chose Bauman’s Blended Fruit Butters because they show how a traditional pantry staple can still invite creativity. Each combination offers more depth than a single-fruit spread and can move easily from breakfast to baking, cheese boards, salad dressings, and savory glazes. They are familiar enough to enjoy every day but distinctive enough to make a thoughtful addition to a gift.

Two Fruits, One Pennsylvania Tradition

Bauman’s fruit-butter tradition began in 1892, when John W. Bauman installed a cider press in his carriage shop and started cooking apple butter for neighboring farmers. The family business grew from that single Pennsylvania Dutch recipe into a collection of fruit butters made in Sassamansville, Pennsylvania. Today, Bauman’s continues to preserve the old-fashioned method while exploring fruit combinations that bring new character to the family pantry.

Bauman’s Fruit Butter

From the heart of Pennsylvania’s Upper Perkiomen Valley, Bauman’s Fruit Butters carry forward a legacy that began in 1892, when John W. Bauman first started producing apple butter using a cider press and a family recipe passed down through generations. What began as a small local operation quickly grew as neighbors and farmers came to rely on the rich, slow-cooked flavors that defined Pennsylvania Dutch kitchens.

That tradition reaches even deeper into early American history. The recipe itself traces back to Schwenkfelder settlers who arrived in Pennsylvania in the 1700s, bringing with them the knowledge of preserving fruit through slow cooking — a method that allowed families to store food without refrigeration and sustain themselves through the seasons. Today, Bauman’s continues to use those same old-world techniques, cooking fruit down naturally into smooth, flavorful spreads without artificial additives or shortcuts.

At PartyLike1776Again, Bauman’s Fruit Butters represent more than just a pantry staple — they are a true piece of Americana. Rooted in heritage, crafted with care, and still family-run generations later, each jar connects the past to the present, bringing the authentic taste of Pennsylvania tradition to the American table.

Fruit Butter Uses

Bauman’s Fruit Butters pair perfectly with our pancake and dessert mixes because they bring a depth of flavor that goes beyond ordinary toppings. Slow-cooked to a smooth, velvety consistency, these fruit butters are rich, concentrated, and naturally sweet — the ideal complement to warm pancakes, fresh-baked cakes, muffins, and cobblers. Instead of simply adding sweetness, they enhance each bite with real orchard flavor and a hint of old-world spice.

Even beyond toppings, Bauman’s Fruit Butters can be used in place of fruit in nearly any recipe — or added alongside it — to elevate flavor and texture. Whether swirled into batter, layered into desserts, or used as a filling or glaze, they bring a level of richness and depth that turns everyday recipes into something truly special.

Together, they create a true Americana experience. Our mixes provide the hearty, from-scratch foundation, while Bauman’s Fruit Butters add the finishing touch — a tradition rooted in Pennsylvania Dutch kitchens and passed down through generations. It’s a simple combination, but one that transforms everyday baking into something memorable, comforting, and unmistakably classic.
