Did you know that the FDA has legal definitions for a large percentage of the foods you eat? I suppose that is a good thing... it's good to know that you're buying what you think you're buying.
However, sometimes it seems to be taken a bit far. For instance, the FDA's definition of "jam" requires a minimum amount of sugar to be in it. If you want to make a lower-sugar jam, you legally cannot call it a jam! That's why our Fruit First spreads are called "spreads." There is too much fruit in there to be legally called a jam!
We call it our "Fruit First" line because when you list the ingredients in order on the label, you have to put them in descending order of weight in the recipe. The fact that the fruit comes first on our ingredient label tells you that there is more fruit than anything else in our spreads. That means less sugar and more fruit flavor.
Our spreads are not low sugar spreads. They have more fruit than sugar in them so they are very fruity and yet they have enough sugar in them to spread easily, have a wonderful shine and luster, and be perfectly balanced and delicious. They are available individually, in a sampler, or as a collection.
Our "Fruit First" flavors are:
Very Strawberry
Peach Pie
Bramble Berry
Maple Blueberry
Spiced Pear
Grape Gala
and also
Sweet Cherry Preserves
