Monin is one of the most trusted names in flavoring — with over 200 gourmet syrups, sauces, and purées used worldwide. Whether you're flavoring drinks, desserts, or frozen treats, Monin gives you the flexibility and consistency you need. Most competitors only sell Monin by the case. At All Star, we make it easier — you can order individual bottles, a huge flavor selection, and even pumps to go with them.


Monin syrup collection

What is Monin? A Quick Overview

  • Heritage & expertise: Monin was founded in France in 1912, and today operates globally in beverage and food flavoring.

  • Product lines:

    • Syrups: Over 100 flavored syrups — everything from classic vanilla, caramel, and hazelnut to exotic and seasonal flavors.

    • Sauces / gourmet sauces: Rich sauces for desserts and drinks (dark chocolate, caramel, white chocolate, etc.)

    • Purées / fruit purées: Real fruit purées that bring a robust, natural fruit flavor to drinks and confections.


Because of this breadth, Monin allows you to build a menu that’s dynamic and interesting.


What Makes All Star Stand Out

  1. Bottle-level ordering (not just cases) - Many suppliers require you to commit to a full case even if you only want one flavor or a few bottles. At All Star, you can order single bottles if that’s all you need - giving you flexibility without overstocking.

  2. Wide flavor selection - We carry a diverse array of Monin syrups, sauces, and purées - from mainstream favorites to seasonal and specialty flavors. That means you can experiment, rotate, or customize without being limited.

  3. Pumps and accessories available - Monin themselves recommends using pumps for syrups, sauces, and purées for consistent dosing. We stock them so you can get the perfect amount every single time

    • Syrup pumps dispense ¼ fl. oz per pump

    • Sauce / purée pumps dispense ½ fl. oz per pump


  4. Better control & less waste - Because you can buy only what you need and use calibrated pumps, you have better control of portions - reducing waste, minimizing spoilage, and maintaining freshness.

  5. Support for your menu creativity - Want to make flavored teas, specialty milkshakes, dessert drizzles, layered bowls, or cocktail mocktails? The combination of syrups, sauces, and purées gives you versatility - and you can order by the bottle to test new items without risking large inventory.


Tips for Using Monin Products in Your Business

  • Match product to use - Use purées when you want real fruit texture or flavor (for smoothies, fruit-forward drinks). Use syrups when you want easy mixing into liquid. Use sauces for topping, drizzling, or dessert finishes.

  • Care for pumps properly - Always keep pump openings covered, especially in open kitchens, to avoid contamination.

  • Trial new flavors smartly - Since you can order single bottles, trial new or seasonal flavors without overcommitting. Monitor how they sell, then move to case orders if they perform well.

  • Rotate seasonal and holiday flavors - You can schedule special flavors (pumpkin spice, toasted marshmallow, raspberry, fruit blends) to match holidays or promotional windows. This keeps your menu fresh and gives customers something new to try.

Sample Use Cases & Highlights

  • A café might use hazelnut syrup in coffee, caramel sauce on desserts, and berry purée in smoothies — all from the same Monin line.

  • A dessert bar could lightly drizzle chocolate sauce and top with a fruit purée swirl, offering a premium presentation.

  • A restaurant can rotate in limited-time flavors (e.g. blood orange, salted caramel) to keep menus exciting.
