It is the best known sirop de Liège manufacturer, selling its products under the trademark Vrai Sirop de Liège/Echte Luikse Siroop. Created in 1902 by Clement Meurens in Aubel, Belgium, Sirop Meurens is an ancestral recipe of a spreadable fruit paste, similar to marmelade or Quince paste. It takes 4 pounds of fruits to make 1 pound of ''Sirop''. Main ingredients are apples, pears and dates. No sugar is added in the refined form but from the abundant local source of sugar beets. Trademarked in 1947, ''Sirop de Liege'' is usually served on bread as a ''tartine'' or open sandwich, and makes a great a pairing with the regional pungent ''Fromage de Herve'' or Herve Cheese it is also use as a base for meatball sauce Boulets à la Liégeoise or pancake sauce boûkète or lacquemant.
