We use British Victoria Plums for this Autumnal preserve. They’re a lovely warm red colour with an orangey/purplish tinge to them. We use the whole fruit, including skins, so you get a really authentic plum taste.
We slice the plums by hand and cook them on low for as little time as possible to retain some of the wonderful fruity pieces that we think every jam should have. We then add sugar (less than a traditional jam), and fresh lemon juice to bring out the flavour.
The reduced sugar recipe and shorter cooking time creates a soft-set, spoon-able and oh-so-fresh plum taste with a reddish/orangey/pinkish glow akin to an autumnal sunset. It will firm up slightly once it has been kept in the fridge.
This jar contains 225g.

It's the first time a shop-bought plum jam actually tasted like the home made plum jams I remember from my childhood. Superb! Worth knowing, it was also a big hit on the cheese board!
Nicola founded Single Variety Co from her kitchen table with the aim of creating a range of seriously delicious fruit preserves and chilli jams. She carefully selected the finest ingredients, British where possible, and packed each jar full of as much fruit as possible with much less sugar than traditional jams. These aims remain the same today in our little jam factory in Bristol - as if Nicola had made them from home! Which is why we work closely with our local suppliers and take great pride in delivering to you the very best products we possibly can.
