Traverse Bay Farms, winner of 38+ national food awards, proudly announces the debut of its newest gourmet collection: The Chain of Lakes Mustards. This handcrafted trio of distinctive mustards is regionally inspired, designed to capture the unique character, culture, and flavor of Northern Michigan’s most iconic waterways. By pairing bold taste with local heritage, the collection offers food lovers a way to enjoy a true “taste of the North.”
The new lineup includes:
- Torch Lake Dijon Mustard — A hearty, stone-ground classic with a bold, unfiltered bite, reflecting the clarity, depth, and legendary beauty of Michigan’s famed Torch Lake and Torch Lake Sandbar. Perfect for pairing with artisan sausages, cheeses, and charcuterie boards.
- Lake Bellaire Honey Mustard — Smooth, golden, and lightly sweet, echoing the warmth of shoreline communities and the richness of wildflower fields surrounding Lake Bellaire. Ideal for glazing chicken, drizzling over vegetables, or enjoying as a dip.
- Elk Lake Sweet and Spicy Jalapeño Mustard — A lively fusion of heat and sweetness, embodying the adventurous spirit and natural energy of Elk Lake’s forested shoreline and breathtaking water. A versatile companion for burgers, sandwiches, or grilled fish.
“These mustards are more than condiments — they are a culinary tribute to the Chain of Lakes and the proud heritage of Northern Michigan,” said Andy LaPointe, Founder of Traverse Bay Farms. “Each flavor tells a story of the land and the lakes, connecting food lovers everywhere to the beauty, traditions, and flavors of this special region.”
Traverse Bay Farms is recognized nationwide for its commitment to quality, innovation, and authenticity. Using as much locally grown ingredients as possible, the company has built a reputation as one of America’s most awarded gourmet food and natural wellness brands. The new Chain of Lakes Mustards join Traverse Bay Farms’ expanding product family, which includes its nationally recognized tart cherry products, Montmorency tart cherry juice concentrate, tart cherry capsules, no-added sugar tart dried cherries, award-winning salsas, signature barbecue sauces, jams, fruit-based condiments, cherry powder and more.
