Jam & Jelly

Fruit spreads are a tasty way to enjoy ripe, seasonal fruit all year round. Whether you’re spreading them on toast, swirling them into yogurt, or topping a dessert, each type—jam, jelly, preserves, and compote—offers something unique. They all start with fruit and sugar, but the texture, preparation, and flavor can vary.

• Jam is made with mashed or crushed fruit, giving it a thick and fruity texture.
• Jelly is clear and firm, made only from fruit juice—no bits or chunks.
• Preserves contain whole or large pieces of fruit in a sugary syrup or gel.
• Compote is gently cooked fruit, soft and juicy, often served as a topping.
