Super fruit forward, these are made using classic French techniques, including a long soak to draw out the most from the fruit's juices.

Known as ‘fruit cheese’ in Europe, this classic, slow cooked recipe was originally used to take advantage of fallen orchard fruit. Our recipe is softer than you’d find in Europe \u0026amp; spreadable – but holds it’s shape perfectly on a cheese platter (or layered between two cookies). We don't add pectin to quicken 'set up' – we rely solely on the magic of fruit, sugar, time and evaporation to concentrate our preserves. This means you get a heck of a lot more fruit.
