yes, IQF means individually quick frozen. Sorry, dun have the name of the supplier, its all stored in the computer systems.i only have the stocksheet to do my recipe costings.
Yes there is some wastage, either moisture or straining. I strain the jam sometimes as some people does not like the seeds sticking to their teeth.so for example 1kg of fruit, maybe i will get 500-600g after being boiled down

Yes. But if its good enough for skycity, it is good enough for the public to use.

What makes you think that Sky City's standards are high!Judging from reviews I've read I would say the opposite.

the point is about availability of ingredients in the consumer market. if you only use AAA+ export grade raspberries in your jam, thats you.
