reviewed September 9, 2009 at 12:22 pm NOTE: Above it says these are $3, but they're actually easy to find on sale for about $2.50. However, the review price only allows whole numbers, hence the $3.
Each fruit sauce starts with a USDA organic apple base and then the base is mixed with additions of pureed organic fruits like blackberries, cherries, strawberries and apricots. Some sauces have extras like cinnamon and spices as well.
INGREDIENTS: Vary depending on flavor. Each sauce contains all organic fruit, organic juice concentrate, and nothing you can’t pronounce or understand. Each 4oz serving offers 100% of your daily value of vitamin C. Fruit sauces are sugar free, fake color free, and there’s no pesticides either.
PACKAGING: Available in 23oz glass jars or snack pack sizes of 6 4oz cups - the snack cups are packaged for easy recycling, but it's still a bigger waste of resources than the jar.
Santa Cruz Organic has plenty of eco-perks so I won't list them here, but you can learn more by reading their wiki below

All the flavors had an amazing fresh picked apple taste as the base and flavors also tasted good warm or cold.
The texture was perfect - not too thick or chunky and not too much like baby food puree (blah), although there are no chunks so a baby would love this. Some of the sauces had some color to them which most kids will find fun over basic applesauce.
These are well priced and healthy fruit sauces and we'll for sure be buying them again.
