Jam, Jellies, Preserves, oh my!

Goes. On. Anything. It's a fabulous sweet that's acceptable morning or night and is just the perfect fix to end a meal.  


Jelly: made from fruit juice
Jam: made from pureed fruit
Preserves: made from whole fruit.








Favorite Jellies
Bexley Jam Sweet Thing Gourmet has combinations that spice up a morning or a simple peanut butter & jelly.  
Raspberry JalapeƱo Jam Sweet and spicy! Enjoy this as a dip over cream cheese. 
Chai Apricot Jam An exotic blend of apricots, chai, and spices. 
Lavender Peach Jam A most unusual yet compelling taste. 
Try over vanilla ice cream, or glaze a fresh peach tart with 
1/2 cup simmered with a touch of white wine.

Far away jams Christine Ferber, you can import jellies from the famous chef Christine all the way from Alsace, France. 
Gooseberry Jelly will make you pucker.  Fruits, sugar, apple pectin, lemon juice.


Label Jam Spoon, pick up at your local gourmet store or order online. They have the WORLD'S best blueberry jam (or at least to me).
Blueberry Spoon’s Blueberry jam is never cloyingly sweet or pasty like some over-cooked commercial jams. The individual blueberries maintain their texture and delicate flavors--sun-drenched and totally...well... blueberry.
