J
ams, jellies, and spreads of all consistencies and sizes make their way
onto store shelves to ultimately end up slathered on toast or a warm
muffin, or as an accompaniment to a cheeseboard, and go well beyond the
standard berry and nut varieties. Products draw flavors from a variety of
fruits and herbs, from elderberries and plums to figs and rhubarb
to thyme and ginger. Childhood flavor mash-ups and sea-
sonal favorites satisfy consumers from the novice to
the pickiest of jam connoisseurs. Here are some of
the newest and most remarkable jams, jellies, and
spreads available now.
