Our name “DU CŒUR” originates in the French language:
Cœur is the French word for “heart or core – the inner part of a thing.”
DU CŒUR can be translated to “of the heart” or “from the heart”.
Our slogan, “from the heart of nature” embodies the journey of pure and natural produce from the heart of our family to the heart of yours.
Somewhere, just south of a little town called Morgenzon, nestled in the foothills of Bloukop mountain, you will find the origin of DU CŒUR Quality Foods.
Our fourth-generation family run farm is a veritable hub of activity. The hustle and bustle of four almost grown, home-schooled children amidst a cacophony of daily activities that form the typical day. And just a short way off you can clearly see the statuesque apple trees heavy laden and beckoning with their current crop of gleaming fruit. Fresh, juicy and ready to slice!
With our Apple Crisps we have the privilege of witnessing the complete process from planting and nurturing the seedlings to cultivating and hand-picking the apples and finally drying and packing. Every part of the apple’s journey is lovingly managed by a member of our family and is a gift from the heart of our home to yours.
Our product range subsequently expanded and now also include DU CŒUR Banana Biltong – deliciously chewy, 100 % pure and natural banana with absolutely no added sugar, oil or fat AND no frying of any kind.
Together we are striving for a level of excellence in producing and packaging the highest quality natural product available, abounding with all the healthy goodness that nature has to offer.
We have spent years tweaking and fine tuning the process that brings you delicious DU CŒUR products. We wanted dried fruit with all the yummy delicious flavour without compromising on the goodness and health benefits that they naturally provide.
We have worked relentlessly to create products that are hundred percent natural, preservative and flavourant free, with no added sugar, no added fat or oil and no frying of any kind. Our meticulous drying process is a treasured family recipe that we have now lovingly packaged so that you and your family can share in all the natural goodness.
