Jams
Jam or preserve: what is the difference?
Although they are usually used as synonyms, jam and preserve are not exactly the same product. The main difference between the two is the amount of sugar used in the making.
Preserve requires a higher percentage of sugar, since the regulations require it to contain at least 60º Brix, that is, at least 60% sugars. It is a traditional recipe that demands a significant proportion of sugar per kilo of fruit, to keep the product for longer, but it also notably increases its content of added sugars.
Jam, on the other hand, can be made with less added sugar, with a minimum of 40º Brix and a maximum of 60º Brix, so it only needs to contain 40% sugars, which makes it a healthier option for those who want to enjoy the flavour of fruit without giving up a balanced diet.
Our commitment: more natural, healthier jams.
We have committed to making jams, always putting health first. That is why we not only reduce the amount of added sugar as much as possible, but also work so that the fruit ripens as fully as possible on its own tree, making use of all the natural sugars that develop organically.
This process lets us make jams with an authentic, intense flavour, where the fruit takes centre stage rather than the sugar. It is our way of offering a healthier product that respects nature.
Which ones can you find?
- All our jams are smooth and intense, made with selected ripe fruit and vegetables and cooked slowly to keep all their natural flavour.
- Handmade, with a high proportion of fruit, a sweet, balanced taste and no preservatives or colourings.
- With a best-before of 24 months.
