New Guide to Jams and Jellies

There is a lot of confusion about the differences between compotes, jams, jellies, marmalades, spreads, etc., all sweet things cooked for our pleasure.

To get off on the right foot, this guide is first of all a lexicon of names for the various sorts of jams. More analysis of particular jams will be added gradually, as we discover more about the very best jams and jellies in the world.

To learn more about these sweet things, follow the guide!

New products: Apricots with Honey and Brandy

Fruits in liquor are the perfect accompaniment for ice cream or sorbet, in cakes (Black Forest, cheese cake, etc.) and fruit salads, or simply as a tasty, light dessert.

Apricots with honey and brandy from Vergers de Gascogne (France) are light in alcohol and sugar.

They make a perfect family treat. You’ll soon want to try all the other flavours too!.
