I’m highlighting Black-owned businesses with products that I love. I have something for the entire family. Browse the list and support the ones that tickle your fancy. Enjoy!

Black Business Month Food and Wine Finds 

Chef Bea Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies

These scrumptious vegan cookies pack a firm edge with an impressive chew. The chocolate melts in your mouth, leaving you satisfied and wanting more. Small and wondrous, oh my!

Retail price: $10
Size: 12 count (mini)
Available: www.chefbeacooking.com

 

Black Business Month Food and Wine Finds

Alexis George, Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

This floral aromatic wine sips like chocolate covered berries with a hint of sweetness. I appreciate its full body and tart finish. The dry vino pairs well with medium-rare steak or a rich macaroni and cheese. Cheers!

Retail price: $25
Size: 750ml
Available: www.alexisgeorgewines.com

 

 

Big Red’s Hot Sauce, Smother Sauce 

Big Red’s Hot Sauce, Smother Sauce Combo

This savory combo contains Blackberry Rum Sauce and the AZ (Arizona) Jerk Sauce. I describe the rum sauce as uniquely delightful. The fruity heat adds lusciousness that you cannot get in other brands. The jerk sauce smells and tastes like an island BBQ in a jar. It brings the spice and gives baked chicken layers of pizzazz. Both are um um good!

Retail price: $8 (individually) | $15 (combo)
Size: 23 oz. | 46 oz.
Available: www.bigredshotsauce.com

 

 

Sweet Suma Love Seasoning

A.L.L. Seasoning, Sweet Summa Love

Sugar and spice make everything nice. The brown sugar dances on the tongue and then, the pepper slows it down and lingers. This pleasant seasoning blend will excite your palate. Get you some!

Retail price: $12
Size: 8 oz.
Available: www.allseasoning20.com

 

 

Trufflin

Trufflin, Truffle Sriracha & Ranch VIP Set

This dynamic duo arrives in elegant packaging. Toss wings in the hot sriracha and serve the creamy ranch on the side. The pungent truffles elevate the experience. It provides a subtle exquisite earthiness that complements both items. I consider this a magnificent gift for a foodie.

Retail price: $44.50
Size: 8 oz. each
Available: www.trufflin-nyc.com

 

 

Fonio Pilaf 

Yolélé Fonio Pilaf, Greens! Moringa + Spinah

This appetizing grain cooks quick. It reminds me of a bowl of greens and cornbread due to its grittiness. The flavorful side dish serves four. Pair it with grilled vegetables or meat for a complete meal.

Retail price: $7
Size: 10 oz.
Available: www.yolele.com

 

 

Just Add Honey, Elderberry Syrup Kit

Just Add Honey, Elderberry Syrup Kit

Help boost your immune system during this pandemic. Use this do-it-yourself syrup kit which consists of an elderberry blend, a glass bottle, and a recipe card. Simply brew the fragrant herbal leaves according to the instructions and add honey. It’s quick, easy, and tasty tas-tea!

Retail price: $20
Size: about 8 oz (tea)
Available: www.justaddhoney.net
