This morning over pancakes, I compared labels on two bottles of Cane Patch, one an older bottle from Dean Foods days, the other from the Bay Valley operation. It is informative and disturbing, folks! The total carbs have gone down, from 59 to 47 grams per serving; but the ingredients are the real problem: Whereas Dean’s product lists “cane sugar syrup, cane syrup” as the only two sugar sources, Bay Valley lists “invert sugar syrup, cane syrup, water”! I know what this means–they are using less of the expensive cane syrup, more generic sugar–and adding water to the product to boot; no wonder when I hold the bottles up to the light, I can readily see the Bay product is lighter in color.
Somebody tell the Bay Valley folks, nobody buys Cane Patch syrup because it’s cheap, but because it’s unique. Don’t change the recipe, please!

I was raised in Cairo, GA. Roddenberry’s has been a fixture my entire life. When I go home, I still buy a case to bring back to AR with me along with some grits, and white cornmeal!

The VERY best way to eat Cane Patch Syrup is to get a HOT biscuit right after coming out of the oven. Poke a hole in one end (about mid-way through)and slowly pour the syrup in the hole. The biscuit will soak up the syrup. PURE HEAVEN..Got to go cook biscuits now….

The Roddenbery’s Cane Patch Syrup was originally produced in Cairo (pronouned “KARO”) Georgia from I beleive the 1930’s to 1960’s. It was called Cairo Cane Syrup. Roddenbery bought them out and still has their name on it. You can buy it at the Piggly Wiggly in South Georgia or at Harvey’s in Albany, Georgia. My sister-in-law is bringing me some this month from Thomasville, Ga.

Cannot agree more–except that Cane Patch is a bunch better on buttermilk pancakes than on waffles; been doing this in my family for nearly a century, near as I can ascertain, generation after generation. I buy it in Lowcountry South Carolina by the case when I visit my in-laws; but recently I found it also in a little country store in Efland, NC! Order it on eBay if you must, or wherever; it is good stuff.

THANKYOU!!! I just became aquainted with Roddenbery’s CANE PATCH SYRUP and it’s wonderful! I picked up a 19 oz. botle just last week in Florida and am kicking myself for not buying more! I’m obliged to give my 19 oz to a co-worker who had expressed interest in obtaining some Sorghum (not Molassas) and this is as close as I could find. I bought it for myself but I’m offering it to my friend. Can you advise if any way in Chicago area I can find this product? Thanks a bunch!

After weeks of going around in circles, trying to find out where Roddenbery’s had gone, I managed to find a little stash at Spec’s in Houston, TX. When the bottles I purchased arrived here we found out that Roddenbery’s either had not been purchased by Dean Foods (as previously thought) or had been handed off again. Regardless, it appears that it is now available through Bay Valley Foods. I have not yet tried to buy directly from them, but there will certainly be attempts in the future when my stock runs low.

And the world rejoiced.

How very odd. My parents and I all three searched for hours trying to find that product online, and you come up with a link so quickly. Well, I shall have to give them a call and make sure they’re not lying.
