Company Overview
Made In Napa Valley is a division of Tulocay & Company, a fast growing brand of premium quality pantry foods that our team hand crafts in Napa Valley, California. We have created our products to reflect the atmosphere and lifestyle of the region, and we offer a full line of sauces, dipping oils, marinades, tapenades, baking mixes and rubs that are healthy, flavorful and easy-to-use. Using only the finest all-natural ingredients, each product is created with care in small batches, giving all of our products a homemade taste that is rich in flavor.
With an enthusiasm for creating delicious meals and a desire to share the joys of cooking with others, our mission for Made In Napa Valley is to provide the tools necessary to help at-home chefs "Enjoy Gourmet Every Day," utilizing delectable products that are versitile and easy to incorporate into daily meal preparation. It is our belief that with a few high-quality ingredients, meals can be both delicious and healthy. Whether whipping up a quick meal for the family or entertaining a group of friends, Made In Napa Valley products were designed to allow everyone – from gourmet cooks to budding epicureans – the opportunity to create memorable meals.
Knowing that great meals begin with great ingredients, we search the world to find the best available ingredients, spices and flavors, taking into account seasonality and freshness of products. Our bottles are transparent with small labels to allow customers to see the rich and flavorful ingredients contained in each package.
This creativity is further evident in the versatility of our Made In Napa Valley line which prompted us, at the request of many customers, to author and publish a cookbook entitled, Gourmet Every Day. This unique cookbook contains 176 full-color pages with 188 recipes organized by product line to easily depict the variety of uses of each product from breakfast to dessert. Additionally, the Gourmet Every Day cookbook includes wine pairing suggestions, menu ideas and tips for eating well and entertaining graciously.Since inception, we have received numerous awards including the coveted National Association of the Specialty Food Trades’ (NAFST) Outstanding Product Line in 2004, and a “Superior Rating” in a Food Safety Audit by the AIB International. Made In Napa Valley also has been featured in various national publications, receiving recognition from O, The Oprah Magazine, Family Circle, and Wine Spectator.
Today, our brand has expanded to include more than 65 products that can be purchased online and in various gourmet grocers and specialty retailers through out the country including AJ's Fine Foods, Whole Foods, Giant Eagle,and Wegman's. Our team of dedicated employees continue to be inspired each day by the region, creating products that embody rich, global flavors that excite other food enthusiasts to embrace their own creativity.
Kingslake & Crane Premium Granola was purchased in January of 2008 and added as our second house brand to the Tulocay & Co line. This all natural, heart healthy granola was the best that we had tasted on the market and felt that it was a perfect complement to our line of product offerings. What makes this granola so good is the way that it is baked without additional fats; crisp and chunky in texture with premium nuts and dried fruits. We currently make 6 different flavors and are always playing around with new ideas for others.
Like Made In Napa Valley, Kingslake & Crane Granola has also received numerous awards that include NAFST Outstanding Breads, Grains or Cereal Product Award Winner 2005 and Best New Food Product 2006 at the Natural Products Expo.
We hope you enjoy experimenting with the rich flavors and unique tastes our Made In Napa Valley products have to offer, as well as the incredible crunch and taste of Kingslake & Crane Premium Granola.
