“I don't like the taste or texture of citrus peel, so I use to skip over recipes calling for orange or lemon zest. Now I search for them, just to use my new Zesto products.  A MILLION THANKS! I Love them both!!
Shari Myers, Sarnia, Ontario, Canada

"Zesto is not only for desserts!!! One of the best selling pastas at JAKX is the Smoked Salmon Farfalle with Lemon Zesto, green peppercorn and bowtie noodles in a lemon butter sauce."

"I remind you that although I live in a country where Jaffa is synonymous with oranges, we have a limited season, hence, most of the year I have no citrus fruits. Your Zesto has solved my problem. It is so fine and tasty that my family now enjoys the flavor of the zest without encountering those pieces floating around. Again thank you very much.  
With warm gratitude"
Shira Miller, Israel

"I am so excited about your lemon and orange Zesto! I keep looking for (and finding) new ways to use them.  Recently I added Lemon Zesto to the crust of a Blackberry cobbler-delicious!  Then I found the perfect Black Bean and Orange Salad to take to a picnic. I didn't have any organic oranges on hand for the zest that the recipe called for.  But I proceeded without a hitch and grabbed my Orange Zesto. I'm sure it had something to do with the copies of the recipe that I ended up making for impressed guests.  Thanks for a wonderful product! When will we see it here in the U.S.? No matter, I'll just keep ordering it from you."
Barbara Evens, Chef/Mate Personal Chef Service, Newark, Ohio, USA

"I purchased your product (orange and lemon) Zesto while I was in Kelowna and I absolutely love it!!"
Sandra Carter Port Elgin, Ontario, Canada

“Thank you for the supply of Orange Zesto. It will certainly cut out the hassle of grating rind. ”
Carole Richards, Oswesly, Simopshire, Scotland

"I tried ZESTO for the first time last week and it's great! I made a cake which called for orange zest that I've made a hundred times before, always omitting the zest because I was either too lazy to grate it or forgot to buy an orange. Anyway, it tasted the best it ever has. I think you have found a new customer!"
Glenna Anne Turnbull Kelowna, BC, Canada

"I substitute most recipes that call for lemon pepper with Lemon Zesto and ground pepper. It tastes fresher and more "lemony", thanks ZESTO!"
Lorraine Taylor, Kelowna, BC, Canada

"I think being able to get grated lemon and orange peel in Canada is the best that happened to me this week. Originally coming from Germany, where this product is very common for baking etc., I have been looking for it for almost 4 years now. Whenever I got a visitor from over there, they had to bring me a jar or two. This way, I always have some in stock. But eventually I will order it from you!!!! And recommend it to friends! I'm sure they'll love having no more bleeding knuckles, not to think of the pesticides they ground into their food!"  Best wishes to you from
Annemarie Bieber, Guysborough, NS  

“Though I am 81, I still cater to weddings, instead of a present I make the wedding cake and all the other baking. I love to bake and lemon & orange Zesto will save me grating my fingers. Good luck with your new venture. I will recommend to my friends.”
Ms. Gertrude O'Brian, Burnaby, BC, Canada

I’ve been cooking our fish with Zesto on top and thin slices of onion. I wrap it in Saran and microwave it about 8 min. Very tasty. It works for Salmon, Halibut, & Roughy.
Bob Bishop, Calabasas, California, USA  

“I own and operate Lucille's Country Kitchen in Winfield B.C. With many years experience I have learned a lot of secrets in baking. I tried adding some LEMON ZESTO to my very popular lemon pie, and found it enhances the flavor even more.”
Lucille, Winfield, BC, Canada

“I use ZESTO a lot at work and at home. It is very versatile and can be used in many things. It is an excellent product”.
Jaxs Neighbourhood Restaurant

"Living in the Bahamas is very exciting and relaxing, but also quite frustrating when one can't beg, borrow or buy a real lemon 10 months of the year. I was thrilled when Arlene introduced me to her fabulous Zesto products".
Heather Fawcett, Freeport, Bahamas

"I just made my Christmas cakes and once again I have to say thanks to ZESTO. Adding Orange and Lemon peel was so easy with my ZESTO powdered peel on hand, and as an extra bonus “No More Grated Knuckles”.
Pat Walls, Kelowna, BC, Canada

"My potato salad turned out better than ever. I am convinced that it was the LEMON ZESTO I sprinkled in it. It was less than a tablespoon, but it made such a difference."
Janis Houston, Kelowna, BC, Canada

"I had some ginger cookies made with Zesto which were delicious. Being a devoted "cookie eater" I give Zesto the thumbs up!"
Jim Munro, Winfield, BC, Canada

ZESTO -the name says it all. Adds zest to everything. My students & I give it our votes for "BEST NEW PRODUCT".
Dona Plaschko Chef/Owner, Spotted Cow Culinary Academy, Kelowna, BC, Canada

"I never thought that any spice would replace my salt container in the cupboard! Well, ZESTO, you are now at the front of the line. A must for any one who has a flair for taste and creativity in her dishes!"
Julianne, Toronto, ON, Canada

"Here’s a recipe I tried and it turned out great. Stuffed Baked Apples - per apple: 1 date chopped, 1/4 tsp. ORANGE ZESTO, 1/8 cup orange juice, 1/4 oz. finely chopped walnuts, 1/8 tsp. cinnamon. Mix and stuff cavity of cored apple. Microwave on high for four minutes."
Marilyn Somers, Kelowna, BC, Canada

"I showed a friend in Kelowna the two jars of Zesto and I practically had to beat her off. I’m looking forward to trying it."
Patricia Nichol Author of "Power of Positive Linking" Victoria, BC, Canada

"In my arsenal of spices I have two or three "secret weapons", which have turned great dishes into fantastic dishes. It took me ten years to discover the secret ingredient in my mother-in-law’s beef stew. Strangely enough, it’s me who now has "selective memory" when sharing the stew recipe.  However, it’s the combined versatility of flavor and convenience found in Zesto that has become the poorest kept secret in my kitchen. It is truly a miracle ingredient. I have used Zesto in my Christmas cakes, muffins, lemon chicken, baked red snapper, and barbecue salmon. Zesto is truly the best thing to come along since Arlene Turner (and her wedding cake, which calls for orange and lemon zest... and which I baked by the way!)."
Patrick Walls, Kelowna, BC, Canada

"My daughter Heather works at Mission Park Travel and brought home your ZESTO products. I was most impressed with both the Lemon and Orange when I was making my early Christmas recipe of Green Tomato Mincemeat. It reduced the amount of fresh peel needed but added tremendous flavour. Good luck with your business!"
Pam Neid , Kelowna, BC, Canada

"When I added ORANGE ZESTO to a chocolate cake mix, my friends all thought it had been made from scratch."
Rosa, Kelowna, BC, Canada

"I added Orange Zesto to my apricot jam this year. After giving a jar to my mom, she called to ask me where I got such tasty apricots. I told her they came from the same place as last year, my back yard. But this time I added a secret ingredient."
Judy Robson, Kelowna, BC, Canada

I made some excellent chicken with sun dried tomatoes, mushrooms and Lemon Zesto, with a wonderful sesame orange salad dressing using Orange Zesto. I’m hooked!
Gail Tibbo, Canada
