About Preserves

Preserves are spreads made by cooking fruits with sugar to extend shelf life while maintaining flavor. Typically containing pieces or chunks of fruit, they are thicker and heartier than jams or jellies. Common in European cuisines but enjoyed worldwide, preserves can be found in recipes ranging from breakfast pastries to savory glazes. While they offer a concentrated source of natural fruit flavor, they also often contain added sugars, making them high in calories. However, they retain some nutrients from the fruit, such as small amounts of fiber and vitamins like vitamin C. When choosing preserves, opting for varieties with minimal added sugar or homemade options can provide a more natural balance between taste and nutrition.
