BEACH & PERRY, CAPE MAY
Page 12 EXIT ZERO December 21, 2023
Every week, the Exit Zero crew goes for lunch (or dinner or, maybe
even on occasion, breakfast) at one of Cape May’s excellent dining
establishments. Well we’re shifting into the holiday shopping
season and it’s only fitting that this column follows suit.
We’ll give you the skinny on the clothes we try on, the candles
we smell, the snacks we sample, who we bumped into and, you know,
the general lay of the land PLUS where to find the best gifts this season.
The place: Cape May Peanut Butter from the Cape Island Foods
family. You can shop their variety of products at their main store on
Carpenter’s Lane, or they have items available at West End Garage on
West Perry Street. Their production site is located at the Cape May Airport
where their nut butters are prepared by hand and then delivered to
the store. Locally made and fresh products every time.
The other shops: There’s more than just peanut butter offered by
Cape Islands Foods. The group operates several other stores in town
including Cape May Olive Oil, The Cheese Shop, Spice Cellar of Cape
May and Wingnutz Nut Haus. Check out all they have to offer at capeislandfoods.com.
The products: Cape May Peanut Butter offers so much to enjoy.
Their staple product is, of course, their nut butters which come in a
variety of flavors. Pick up a jar of Butterscotch Peanut Butter, Chocolate
Peanut Butter, Strawberry Peanut Butter and more! They also offer
them in powdered form. You’ve also got to check out their bakery case
that’s always packed with cookies and scones. Treat yourself to their
chocolate-covered pretzels, giant peanut butter cups or a jar of their
peanut butter hot cocoa. If you’re hungry while shopping, you can’t go
wrong with one of their homemade peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.
You can choose grape or strawberry jelly, and they’re even offered on
banana bread (our favorite). Cape May Peanut Butter Company didn’t
forget about the pups — they carry dog treats made with their natural
peanut butter that your pooch will love.
The takeaway: Cape May Peanut Butter Company is open daily
from 10am to 6pm. Pick up a few stocking stuffers and a gift set or two
while there’s still time. Can’t make it in? You can shop online, too! If
sweets aren’t your thing or your family’s, there’s plenty of alternatives
at their other stores. Maybe something to enjoy before dinner. You can’t
go wrong with a charcuterie tray or spreads from The Cheese Shop.
