Juicy Juice
Spring has definitely sprung, and we’re well on our way to summer—and if that means one thing for our Coffee & Juice Bars, it’s that some of the best produce is now in season and waiting to be turned into delicious, healthful juices!

Ah, the ever so tiny and tempting dried kiwi fruit. We’re happy to introduce this bite–sized morsel as one of the newest additions to our bulk foods department. These dried kiwis are pealed, sliced, dehydrated and then given a small amount of sugar to offset their natural sourness—in other words, enjoy this tantalizing fruit without all the labor that usually goes into its preparation!
For our guests who are gluten intolerant or who prefer to consume a gluten–free diet, Bard’s Gold American Lager provides an excellent gluten–free beer option. Brewed in Missouri, this refreshing and flavorful beer contains no wheat, barley, rye or oats, and we love that it boasts fuller flavor and richer aromas than other gluten–free beers.
As summer approaches, nothing sounds better to me than cooking up a homemade, well–seasoned burger on my backyard grill. In our meat departments, we use our Fresh to Market signature seasonings, hand mixed with our 85 percent lean ground beef, to create delicious, hand–shaped burgers. Our most popular flavor is our Garlic and Pepper Seasoned Burger, a tasty patty that is gluten free and packed with flavor in every bite.
Kick your taco night up a notch with one of our favorite products from our tortilla section: Mi Abuelita Bonita Nopal Corn Tortillas. Nopal (also known as the “prickly pear,” or, more commonly, cactus) is a truly underrated vegetable—it’s high in both fiber and calcium, yet low in cholesterol, and it adds great flavor to these corn tortillas!
If your dad likes to grill, may we suggest an aptly named Father’s Day gift? Specifically, Amazing Dad’s BBQ Sauce. All three flavors of this hearty sauce are naturally sweetened with organic honey, and they are also gluten free.
For many of our guests, Father’s Day is a great reason to get the whole gang together for a good, old–fashioned cookout—complete with a good, old–fashioned pie to top off the fun! This Father’s Day, we’re offering our made–from–scratch 9–inch cream pies in crowd–pleasing flavors including banana, chocolate and coconut.
For devotees of the local food movement, Nugget Markets has a special opportunity in store. Local author Joanne Neft will be signing her cookbook, The Placer County Real Food Cookbook, in our Roseville store on April 7 and 14. An advocate of eating locally, Joanne’s book incorporates recipes that use the best of what we can find at our area farmers’ markets.
Red Barn Walnut Company supplies our bulk department with some of my favorite salad toppers—namely, delicious nuts, including Glazed Chandler Walnuts, Glazed Pecans and Glazed Almonds. Grown locally just outside of Los Molinos, California, these nuts add the perfect amount of sweetness, crunch and texture to almost any kind of salad.
Family owned and operated Nugget Markets was born and raised right here in Northern California; Woodland to be exact! As your locally grown grocer, we have a heart for all things nearby, and we’re staying true to our Northern California heritage by giving our guests the best our area has to offer. From every Nugget Markets department, we bring you top–quality products from the local farms, families, and businesses that are located within a 100–mile radius of our corporate headquarters and share our deep–running roots and commitment to staying “close to home.”
