Ninutik Maple Sugar

Elegant, modern, distinctive – these are the words that describe the spirit of Ninutik design. The intent is to present maple syrup – a Canadian cultural icon – through the lens of design, art and sugarmaking. Ninutik products are designed by Dianne Croteau and Richard Brault, the founding partners of Studio Innova (Toronto) and they purchase their maple syrup from family-owned sugarbushes committed to producing the highest quality syrup. These producers are connected to the land and dedicated to ensuring the health and diversity of their maple bush.

Ninutik have made every effort to green their operations and are proud members of Green Enterprise Ontario. Their kitchen is powered in part by photovoltaic solar panels installed on the building, the waste water is chemical-free and when appropriate is diverted into a neighbouring community garden. They purchase their maple syrup from Ontario family-owned farms and the syrup arrives from the sugar bush in reusable food grade containers which are returned to the sugar bush for reuse and no packaging waste is generated. Their beautiful wooden boxes are crafted locally from FSC (Forestry Stewardship Council) certified Canadian maple finished by hand with food grade beeswax and are intended as keepsakes to be enjoyed for many years – for personal treasures…
