d'arbo All Natural Fine Plum Fruit Spread, 16 Ounce

This is the best quality cherry preserves I have found in any country. The taste is fantastic and is as good as any one could expect from home canning if you are in the right region. It may be a bit expensive, however, it will become a breakfast staple the first time you try it.

This spread has a bold flavor that doesn’t need anything else to make it taste good. I tried it with and without butter on crackers and liked it better all by itself. The butter seemed to take away from the unique flavor. It only has three ingredients, so it’s something I would naturally be drawn to. The texture is similar to apple butter and this makes it different from what I find in local stores. It would be good on English muffins or toast. It’s quite satisfying and surprisingly low in calories. It’s not overly sweet. The lemon gives it a tartness without making it overly tart or bitter. It’s just right for balancing the flavor. The jar was intact and it had a decorative paper top over the lid which made it attractive. Perfect for gift giving. It’s not cheap, but the ingredients are just like homemade, so that makes it a bargain. I’ve seen homemade jars of fruit spreads at much higher prices. I tried some in plain yogurt and it was an interesting combination. It’s also good straight from a spoon if you can’t find an excuse to eat it and you don’t have English muffins or bread handy.

This incredibly delicious sour cherry preserve ~ a product of Austria ~ is now my #one favorite jam/preserve that I have EVER, in my lifetime of over 80 years, tasted!! It’s packed with sour cherry fruit and the tartness couldn’t be more perfect! I rate this product a TEN for being so divine.

I have NEVER gone through a jar of jam as fast as I went through this jar of D'arbo raspberry preserves. Seriously, I thought I had already identified and claimed a favorite preserve/jam/jelly/spread brand, and it was Bon Maman. I was clear on that, for years. My second favorite was Smuckers preserves (WITH the seeds! Removing the seeds from raspberry jam is a travesty, as far as I'm concerned! Don't want the seeds caught in your teeth or spackling your larynx? Choose a different fruit, buddy! The raspberry comes with RISK -- that's how Mother Nature made things!). I also like Stonewall Kitchens, but they don't deal in raspberries. SO -- to sum up --- I was all set in the raspberry spread department. But then one day I was out of raspberry jam, and because I'd already placed an Amazon Fresh order and didn't have enough groceries to start another one, I needed to pick a jam that could be shipped to me in a regular order -- not a grocery order. The brands that showed up for that were different that my usual brands, so there was the opportunity to be mildly adventurous, and I took it. I purchased this jar, D'arbo. I had no specific expectations, but wow -- this is delicious jam. Just perfect in every way. Great texture, perfect degree of sweetness and tartness, doesn't taste artificial, spreads smoothly on everything, doesn't get goopy or watery or clumpy as the jar's contents decrease...I have no complaints whatsoever. It's wonderful. I've made much more toast than I usually do, just to have an excuse to get out the raspberry jam. I want to try other D'arbo preserve flavors now!

Tasty but pricey

This stuff is great. The Taste the consistency. The flavor is spot on. Love this jam. Very quick delivery and the item I wanted. Thank you!

Flavor is not what I expected...not that much apricot taste. The texture is a little runny...again not what I expected. Other brands are better. Will not purchase again.

I haven't purchased D'arbo's Sour Cherry spread for may months and I'd forgotten how delicious it is. I mean, really delicious...not too tart, not too sweet, just the perfect combination of the two resulting in this yummy explosion of flavor when it hits the tongue, and the "No Artificial Ingredients" part of the recipe results in a clean and healthy flavor...one you want more of. Try it...you won't be disappointed!

love it
