Alpe Pragas – Apricot Ginger Mint – Fruit Spread
Alpe Pragas Apricot Ginger Mint fruit spread is probably the most daring combination Stefan Gruber has ever put in a jar. The wonderful Vinschgau apricots set the tone in this fruit spread, a little spicy ginger provides exotic flair, and the peppermint, grown in their own fields and hand-picked, ensures a pleasant freshness. Cooked with just a little sugar and lemon juice, this combination tastes great on warm crêpes or with quark or yogurt. What an exotic, fresh fruit composition.
In the Prags Valley, the Gruber family has been growing berries at an altitude of approximately 1250 m since 1994. In this alpine mountain climate, the fruits ripen longer, developing a particularly intense aroma. Great importance is placed on cultivating the fruits as naturally as possible: the seedlings are planted by hand, the fields are weeded several times until harvest, and irrigated with river and spring water from the Dolomites.
The Apricot Ginger Mint spread in the 335g jar has a fruit content of 75%, gelled only with natural apple pectin.

Finest from fruits – quality from the Dolomites
Alpe Pragas is a gourmet manufacturer that produces the finest fruit products in the heart of the Dolomites. Since 2002, Alpe Pragas spreads have been a permanent part of our range, and from the beginning, we have been enthusiastic about the special quality, the intense fruit flavor, and the unique consistency of Stefan Gruber's organic fruit spreads, jams, and preserves. What is produced in the Alpe Pragas gourmet factory brings a smile to every connoisseur.
The ripe fruits are harvested by hand, pitted, cleaned, and cut, then gently cooked without additives or preservatives. This preserves vitamins, the natural color of the fruits, and above all, their wonderfully intense fruit flavor. The fruity range includes jams, fruit spreads with a high fruit content, organic preserves, syrups, mustards, and chutneys as perfect accompaniments to cheese, meat, or fish dishes. Good from South Tyrol for connoisseurs: Fresh, fruity, authentic! Simply delicious.
Alpe Pragas – Goals for the Future
Stefan Gruber's next big goal is CO2-neutral production by 2027. To achieve this, in 2010 he built a state-of-the-art production facility, as well as an alpine-designed sales and tasting room, and a new office wing. The processing of the fruits is an innovative process, yet as much as possible is done by hand. By optimizing production processes, resources can be conserved and energy saved, and waste has also been reduced. The father of the family feels a responsibility towards the next generation to handle water, energy, air, and soil resources carefully. Stefan Gruber loves the region where he grew up and now lives with his family. "We want to produce green and become an ECO-Manufactory," he tells us.
