FISHERS, Ind., Feb. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Jarden Home Brands,
makers of Ball® brand home canning products, today announced the
introduction of six new items joining the fresh preserving family
in 2016. Knowing more than half (57%) of Americans already have at
least one mason jar in their home, Jarden is offering canners,
gardeners and food lovers even more ways to eliminate food waste
and eat fresh year-round.
"This year we're excited to offer even more resources to make
preserving simple and easy for everyone. Whether an avid home
canner, urban gardener, meal prepper or simply someone who finds
themselves with a few too many tomatoes after a trip to the farmers
market, we have a solution," says Janine
Moore, Senior Brand Manager, Fresh Preserving at Jarden Home
Brands. "Our community is constantly providing feedback on what
they need in their kitchens, from products that help reduce food
waste to better organization. We've listened and are thrilled to be
able to provide something to satisfy everyone."
The following new introductions will be available online and in
stores this spring:
Collection Elite® Series:
- The popular Ball® Collection
Elite® Color Series delivers a pop of vibrant
blue with a new line of colored jars in several never-before
released sizes: Wide Mouth Pint and Regular Mouth Half Pint. Wide
Mouth Quart will also be available as a popular size favored by 30%
of users. All are available in 4-packs.
- Created to complement the new colored jars, the Collection
Elite Color Series Lids with Bands are now available in a beautiful
metallic blue in both Regular Mouth and Wide Mouth. The most
important piece of equipment when canning, preservers can now
replace their used lids with a colorful top. Perfect for gifting,
recipe organization and DIY food projects, these lids with bands
add a nice metallic touch.
- Also joining the Collection Elite Series is the new Jam Jar,
back this year by popular demand. The unique rounded shape jar
embossed with fruit embellishments was discontinued in 2007 and is
now available and perfect for homemade jams, jellies and marmalades
and other smaller batch recipes.
All new Collection Elite Series
items maintain all of the modern standards for home canning and,
like all Ball brand canning jars and lids with bands, are Made in
America and BPA-free.
FreshTECH Family:
- The fourth countertop appliance in the brand's FreshTECH line
offers an easy solution for making tomato sauce – the #3 most
searched canning recipe on FreshPreserving.com. The HarvestPro™
Sauce Maker is an efficient tool that can puree up to 15-quarts of
fresh tomatoes in just 20 minutes and is equipped with a special
recipe guide. Not just for tomatoes, the appliance can make quick
and easy work of pureeing squash for soup and apples for
applesauce. The recipe guide also shares ideas for homemade baby
food, salsas and other spreads like guacamole and hummus.
Home Décor & Simple Storage:
- The #2 use for mason jars outside of canning is storage, with
jars often converted into containers for salads, dressings and dry
ingredients or used as vases for centerpieces. The new Super Wide
Mouth Half Gallon Decorative Jar is the perfect vessel for flour,
sugar, cookies and more, made with a push-top lid for ideal pantry
storage and designed to give you easier access to the contents
of your jar.
- The Pour & Measure Storage Cap helps makes mason jar
storage simpler and cleaner with a specifically designed pouring
spout and unique measuring cap closure, ideal for both dry and
liquid ingredients. Available for purchase as a single cap which
fits atop any Wide Mouth jar or as a cap on a Wide Mouth quart
jar.
All products will be available on the newly relaunched
FreshPreservingStore.com, the first place to get the latest in Ball
brand canning products, and retailers nationwide. The new site
includes twice as many canning products than before, including
every single Ball® and Kerr® item currently available today.
