Pioneer Valley Gourmet Strawberry Jam

Strawberry jam is a classic. I love strawberry jam on toast, pancakes, or French toast. It's reliable. I don't know if there is such a thing as bad strawberry jam, but this is better than most. It's reliable.

This tastes like fresh strawberries. It has no corn syrup to mask the flavor. And it spreads perfectly with no blobs or drips. You can count on this strawberry jam.

It's always right. It even comes in an attractive hex-shaped bottle with eight ounces of pure jam.

Customer Questions

• Why do you like Pioneer Valley so much? Because they make a better product and we trust them.
• Even though they cost more? We think it's better, tastes better, spreads better.  Merri Ann says, "You get what you pay for." Most of the time, she's right.
• What about the selection, is that important to you? Immensely. They make more rare and hard-to-find jams than anyone else.
• Why is that important? Most of us are fortunate--we can eat for the experience and eat what we enjoy. That's important. We try to make it affordable.
• What makes Pioneer Valley better? We think it's people, products, and processes. For example, the founder grew up in the orchards. They started growing their fruit. They understand fruit and strains and preservation. That's important, but more so, they care and take pride in what they do. 
• What do you mean by "processes"?  Most of their fruit is frozen, fresh fruit frozen. They're not trying to make jam with over-ripe, soft fruit.  
• What about the ingredients? It's made with fresh fruit and sugar--no corn syrup. Corn syrup is cheaper but masks the fruit flavor.
• What about more "spreadable"? You get a nice, even coat when you spread it on your toast, without lumps and not so soupy that it drips off the edge.  It's a different jam.
• What's the difference between preserves and jams? Preserves are big chunks of fruit. Jams are a smooth spread. This is a jam.

How can you tell if you're getting a good jam? Look at the label. Is it made with cane sugar or corn syrup? Corn syrup is cheaper and easier to work with, but it masks the flavors of the fruit. If it's made with corn syrup. Then, what other corners are they cutting?

All Pioneer Valley jams are made with authentic, pure cane sugar and all-natural pectin. Purchase this strawberry jam with confidence.
