Lucienne’s Preserves

Welcome to a new year at the market! The start of each new year is the perfect time to put into effect any new resolutions to keep fit, eat more healthily, and to lose the few pounds we’ve added on during the holiday season. What better way to achieve all those objectives than to enjoy foods prepared with your health in mind. Lucienne’s Preserves at the Marché Moncton Market is a one-stop shopping area for all your low fat, sugar-free treats.

Lucienne Dandurand carries a complete line of homemade preserves – jams, jellies, and “Happy Jam” with liquors; baked goods – pies, turnovers, tarts, macaroons, peanut butter balls, cookies and breads; pickles and relishes with homegrown vegetables; and jars of delicious soups, spaghetti sauce, chili, and seafood chowder all made from the finest and freshest ingredients. What makes Lucienne’s offerings special is her use of chicolin, which is an extract made from tubers and chicory root and is an excellent sugar substitute perfect for diabetics, dieters, and overall healthy eating. Meat products are made from organic, grain-fed beef, and where possible, her fruit preserves and baked goods use fruit hand-picked from the wild by Lucienne herself.

A former baker at Clara’s Bakery, Lucienne learned to cook for diabetics with her chicolin products. Now that Clara’s bakery is closed, Lucienne has brought her talents to the market where her delicious and healthy menu choices can be found weekly on Saturdays. Need a special order? Contact Lucienne at (506) 576-9209 or visit her table at the market where you’ll find her surrounded by her excellent foodstuffs, arts, and crafts, fine knitted items, and natural health products. This year, make a pledge to keep fit and eat healthily and let Lucienne help you accomplish those goals!
