Aubergine Pickle

"I absolutely loved the Aubergine Pickle!" Anna Possee

Bergamot Marmalade

“Kathryn and I sampled some with breakfast this morning. No, it’s not weird, and no it does not taste like Earl Grey tea. It is quite obviously a marmalade and has a gentle and subtle initial flavour which then seems to develop into a slightly stronger flavour a few...

Blackberry Jam

"Tastes like a hedgerow in the countryside." Andy Hibbard

Gooseberry Jam

"Mum says 11/10 for your divine gooseberry jam. It was gorgeous. She finds that some sharp fruits leave a bitter taste in her mouth. Your gooseberry jam was perfect for her, just right, neither too sweet nor too sour. And gooseberry is one of her favourite fruits, and...

Ginger, Lime, and Chilli Dipping Sauce

Seville Orange Marmalade

Blackcurrant jam

Aubergine Pickle

“I attended the Edgbaston market a few months ago and had picked up an aubergine pickle from your stand. It was delicious and I finished the jar in a couple of days on sourdough bread. I would love to have some for family and friends. Would you know roughly the...
