Clinton, Michigan - Eden Foods and the Eden Organic Pasta Company are happy to announce NEW labels for our most delicious and more nutritious Eden Organic Pasta.
EDEN Organic Pasta introduces color coded labels making it easy to know the percentage of whole grain that each contains. Textured illustrations, pictures of grain, and health benefit bullet points provide a common visual bringing the three colors together for a pleasing display.
Eden's most nutritious pastas are 100% Whole Grain, labeled in GOLD. The gold color harmonizes with the pastas' deep richer color.
Eden's most popular pastas are 60% Whole Grain, labeled in BLUE. Blending 40% sifted flour (semolina or patent durum flour) gives Eden 60% Whole Grain Pasta a lighter texture with the whole grain goodness.
For those desiring the lightest organic pasta, Eden offers several made from the highest protein, patent durum flour and semolina. These are labeled in GREEN and are certified 100% organically grown and made.
There are six gold labeled Eden Organic Pastas, ten blue labeled ones, and ten that are green labeled. Eden Organic Pasta is made from the most sought after pasta making grain in the world: organic and biodynamically grown golden amber durum wheat, rye, kamut, brown rice, spelt and quinoa. The grain is grown on family farms committed to building vital soil, cleansing the environment, maintaining Nature's diversity. It produces the safest, most nutritious, and delicious food.
