Journalist Anne Desjardins’ feedback after preparing the radio show Samedi de Prendre le Temps
[FREE TRANSLATION] “I am impressed by your products. They’re easy to use, funny, and they take you to new places in terms of flavor, without effort. They allow us to flavor our summer dishes in very original ways. Personally, I can’t wait to test them on warm dishes... My experimentations up to now has been more than conclusive... I can say my strawberry shortcake with its whipped cream and chocolate sauce flavored with chocolate peppermint were a great success. I can say the same for my cold cucumber soup. I also prepared various lemonades and iced teas, flavored strawberries, a strawberry sauce and a fruit salad. Also had a great time blending salad dressings and dips...” Anne L. Desjardins,
author and journalist, specialized in food and gastronomy

Phénix de l’environnement 2011 Prizes
Aliksir is proud to announce its participation as finalist in the category «Business» and under the theme «Residual Materials Management».
«À l'image du Phénix qui renaît de ses cendres et symbolise la régénération, vos réalisations contribuent à la conservation et à l'utilisation durable de nos ressources et au maintien de notre qualité de vie. Les Phénix de l'environnement sont l'occasion de faire reconnaître vos actions remarquables en faveur de la protection de l'environnement et de la promotion du développement durable». Abstract from the Organization’s Web site ( www.phenixdelenvironnement.qc.ca )
Why that honour ? We have recently received the support of the Agence de l’efficacité énergétique to design a system allowing the reutilization of a portion of our distillation residue as a source of energy (replacing oil products) for heating and in the production of essential oils and hydrosols.
The official ceremony will take place on June 9th. Wish us good luck!
