Quince: a traditional Greek treasure with an unforgettable taste
Quince is considered a fruit with a long tradition in Greece, associated with the autumn months. In Greek cuisine, they have their place in the preparation of sweet jams and syrups such as kydonátis, a popular quince jam, or kydonopita, a traditional Greek cake. This fruit is also a symbol of fertility and fruitfulness and is therefore often part of Greek wedding rituals.
The taste of fresh quince is characterised by its acidity and hard texture, which is why it is usually not eaten raw. When cooked or baked, they become softer and sweeter, with a distinct aroma that is reminiscent of a combination of apples and citrus. Quinces are also great for spicing - often used with honey, cinnamon and cloves for the perfect flavour.
This fruit is not only a taste treat, but also provides many vitamins and minerals that promote health. Quince is still very popular in modern Greek cuisine, which is constantly returning to traditional dishes and natural ingredients.
HEBE marmalades - a sweet treasure inspired by Greek tradition
Hebe is the name for the traditional syrupy fruit compote known in Greek homes as "tou koutaliou" (English: "spoon sweets", Czech: "sweet on a spoon"). These unique marmalades carry the richness of history, culture and taste that the Greeks have preserved for generations.
The name "spoonfuls of sweetness" refers to their original way of serving - hosts offered this sweet dessert to guests as a symbol of hospitality. The compote was traditionally served on a spoon, placed in a glass or crystal bowl, accompanied by a glass of refreshing cold water.
Hebe is also the name of the ancient Greek goddess of eternal youth. Portrayed as a beautiful young woman, Hebe served ambrosia and nectar in a golden chalice - the food of the gods that brought longevity and immortality. This divine symbolism adds hebe marmalades a deeper meaning - a connection to eternal freshness, joy and tradition.
Prepare a moment for yourself or delight your loved ones with a sweet spoonful of Hebe marmalade - a piece of Greek sun and hospitality within reach.
Pelion - home of gods, centaurs and sweet treasures
Pelion, a mountainous peninsula in central Greece, is a natural gem that combines the beauty of forests, olive groves and orchards with the rich Greek mythology. This region was the home of the wise centaurs and the place where, according to legend, the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, parents of Achilles, took place.
It is also the place where the goddess Hebe brought ambrosia and nectar to the gods, foods that guaranteed longevity and immortality. This symbol of eternal youth and strength is also reflected in Hebe products, which carry a reference to traditional Greek sweets and gratitude for nature's gifts.
Today, Pelion is known not only for its rich history, but also for its hospitality and traditional sweets of the spoon - fruit compotes made from local fruits. These marmalades are not only a symbol of Greek culture, but also a reflection of the careful work and care of the local people who use the best of nature.
Every spoonful of Hebe marmalade will transport you to the heart of Pelion, where sun, fresh fruit and Greek tradition mingle, as well as the ancient stories of the gods.
Hebe products are a celebration not only of natural beauty, but also of the divine hospitality that is part of Greek culture. Just as the goddess Hebe brought joy and eternal freshness, these jams are a gift for anyone seeking a connection to nature, history and tradition.

About the ingredient
The quince (Cydonia oblonga) is a fruit tree native to Central Asia, specifically the Caucasus, Iran, and Central Asia. However, it is currently cultivated in many other countries with a temperate climate, including Southern Europe and North America.
Quince is valued not only as a food ingredient but also in the field of cosmetics and dietary supplements. It is high in vitamins A and C, fiber, and antioxidants, making it ideal for supporting the immune system and improving digestion. In cosmetic products, quince is used for its moisturizing and soothing properties, which aid in skin regeneration and keep it soft and supple. Thanks to these benefits, quince is a popular ingredient in organic products that emphasize natural and healthy ingredients.

Our vision
Our vision is to become a leading producer and exporter of high quality Greek food products, taking advantage of Greece's vastly untapped potential in the production and export of quality food.
Although Lesvos remains our fixed base, we are considering all regions of Greece that can offer distinctive products to discerning customers beyond our country's borders.
Our mission
Our mission is to offer all consumers who are interested in improving their diet a variety of tasty, innovative and highly nutritious food products made on the island of Lesvos and in other parts of Greece.
We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of quality using selected raw materials and traditional practices while upholding our core values of quality, fair pricing and environmental sustainability.
Our logo
Our logo features the ancestral coat of arms of our family, which depicts a dove sitting on the globe and carrying an olive branch in its beak.
In addition to representing our family heritage, we chose it as our representation because it expresses the ideal of global peace and also symbolizes the spiritual and material importance of olives as food for the mind and body that transcends cultures around the world.
About Lesvos
Lesvos is the third largest Greek island in the northern Aegean Sea. In addition to an abundance of olive trees, there are also many orchards, aromatic herbs and other flora, making it a botanical paradise. Not for nothing did the Ottomans call it the "Garden of the Aegean".
This is the home of our family and where the history of our company begins with the production of premium extra virgin olive oil that takes advantage of the unique organoleptic properties of the original Kolovi olive variety.
Lesvos has a long history of olive oil production. During the excavations an olive press from the Bronze Age was discovered, dating back to the period 2800-2000 BC. Large areas of olive groves on terraced hills cover almost 30% of the island in the eastern and southern parts and almost 80% of the arable land on the island.
With over eleven million trees and a population of approximately 90,000, Lesvos has by far the largest number of olive trees per capita in the world. Many of these trees are hundreds of years old, as evidenced by their thick and twisted trunks. The cultivation of olive trees and the production of olive oil are therefore one of the most important economic activities in Lesbos.
Lesvos is also known for its natural beauty, its abundance of sunshine, its lively ecosystems that include not only flora but also fauna, and its very diverse landscape, from the lush greenery in the east and south to the wild volcanic west with its petrified forest, one of the largest in the world.
Health claims
