Crema LIMONE – Lemon Flavoured Glaze

Crema LIMONE is a ready-to-use lemon-flavoured sweet-and-sour glaze made with White Condiment.

Grapes and lemons share the Mediterranean sun, but they reach maturity at different times: grapes accompany the beginning of autumn, while lemons bring their colour and fragrance towards the colder season. Two fruits ripened by the same warmth, yet capable of expressing very different characters.

In the glaze, the softness of the grape-based condiment meets the crisp freshness of citrus, creating a bright and lively profile accompanied by a creamy, velvety texture.

Presentation of Crema LIMONE - Lemon Flavoured Glaze

Crema LIMONE is made with White Condiment, part of the Modena tradition of sweet-and-sour condiments, enriched by the freshness of lemon.

The base brings sweetness, roundness and the acidic component of wine vinegar; lemon introduces a different kind of acidity, fresher and more immediate, accompanied by its distinctive citrus character.

It is precisely the difference between these sensations that defines the identity of the glaze. The softness of White Condiment embraces the liveliness of lemon without diminishing its character, while the creamy texture brings the different components together and makes them easy to dose on the plate.

The result is a light, bright glaze designed to add a fresh citrus note to savoury and sweet preparations.

Main features

Crema LIMONE combines the softness of White Condiment with the fresh and immediately recognisable character of citrus.

Aroma and flavour

The aroma is fresh and citrusy. Lemon emerges immediately, accompanied by the softer notes of the sweet-and-sour base.

On the palate, two different forms of liveliness can be perceived: the rounder acidity of the vinegary component and the crisper, fresher acidity of lemon. The sweetness of the grape must accompanies both, helping to maintain a balanced profile without masking the character of the citrus fruit.

The creamy, velvety texture softens the sharper edges and carries the flavour evenly. The finish remains fresh and recognisable, with the lemon note giving the product a distinctive personality within the range.

Conclusion

Crema LIMONE tells the story of two fruits ripened by the Mediterranean sun yet capable of expressing very different characters.

Grapes build the soft, sweet-and-sour base of White Condiment, part of the Sweet-and-Sour Condiments family; lemon adds freshness, fragrance and a crisper liveliness. Even their ripening times tell this difference: one accompanies the harvest towards autumn, while the other brings colour and fragrance as winter approaches.

In the glaze, these differences become complementary: roundness and freshness, sweetness and acidity, brought together by a velvety texture designed to finish the dish with a distinctive citrus note.
