My own homemade but if I had to buy then it would be Anathoth's simply because they were the first, wide distributor manufacturer that makes jams using just fruit sugar and water without all the other fillers and chemicals.

My own home made apricot jam or if I had to buy,probably Anatoth or IXL if I want something more basic for baking.

I like the St Dalfour Jams and Anathoth but love the Barkers Chutneys.I don't really eat jam often so can't comment on favourite flavour - possible a berry one of some sort - perhaps blueberry or raspberry since they are my favourite berries.

My favourite is my own Black Doris/Omega plum and lemon jam or another vote for Anatoth.

Yes I thought it had been sold to a big manufacturer of jams with fillers, colours, flavours and other chemical additives but so long as the ingredients were still fruit, sugar and water I was prepared to stay loyal. However, I will keep an eye out for Pope's Jam in future and thanks for the information. I appreciate it.
One thing I have found over the years with all bought jams, unlike my own homemade, is that they are all too sweet for my tastes and the fruit flavour is almost non-existent.

The only jam I use has to be sugar-free so I buy Jo'n'Al brand made in Chch.

I like Dalfour & Anathoth jams. Another one that isn't too bad is Rose..usually has the label Roses Conserve as opposed to jams.

The jams made by the women of the Lionesses community organisation and sold twice a year outside local supermarkets...all packed with fruit.There you'll find all the rare and wonderful varieties like Rhubarb & Ginger, Fig Conserve, Pear Ginger, Quince Jelly, Crab Apple Jelly and plum jam made from old heritage trees.

Have always used Anathoth from when they first started selling it at the market in Nelson and raspberry tarts too, but the company has been sold and it is made in Geraldine now and I dont like it as much but there Boysenberry is good.
