About Log Cabin Syrup

 

Log Cabin syrup has been an American staple for livening up breakfast foods such as pancakes, waffles, French toast, and more since 1887. Minnesota resident Patrick J. Towle formulated the famous brand of syrup and named it in honor of Abraham Lincoln who was famous for growing up in a log cabin.

Log Cabin syrup has been bought out several times over its 134 year history including by popular brands such as General Foods, Kraft, Aurora Foods, Pinnacle Foods, and Conagra. When it was owned by Aurora Foods in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Log Cabin syrup worked with the National Park Service on historic log cabin restoration projects throughout the country.  

Log Cabin syrup has a rich maple flavor that is thick and sweet – the perfect topping for any breakfast food. There are three different varieties to meet different dietary needs including the original recipe, the lite recipe which boasts 45% fewer calories, the sugar free recipe with no sugar and 90% fewer calories, and the all natural recipe with no high fructose corn syrup or artificial flavors or sweeteners.

Ingredients

 

The main ingredients of the original Log Cabin syrup are sugar, corn syrup, and water. It also contains minor amounts of preservatives, salt, caramel coloring, and artificial and natural flavoring. The lite version of Log Cabin syrup contains the same ingredients but more water and natural sugar than corn syrup when compared to the original recipe.

The sugar free Log Cabin syrup is mostly made of water and sorbitol. The all natural syrup consists of brown and white sugar, brown rice syrup, water, natural flavoring, and citric acid as a preservative and xantham gum as a thickener.
