Back in February when I was still getting my feet wet doing reviews, I had the wonderful privilege to
review and host a giveaway of some jam from The Jam Lady (also known as Pat) from
T P Kitchen.
The organic blackberry jam that I got to try was so tasty, I mean you could really taste the berries, probably because you could see the berries, so you knew they were in there lol! The berries in the jams are all organic and the jams are all home made one batch at a time. You know that a lot of care goes into the making of these products, which in turn is reflected in their taste.
There is so much you can do with T P Kitchen jams besides the obvious breakfast toast spread. Use them as ice cream toppings, pair some of the flavors up with cheese and crackers, english muffins, how about blueberry jam on blueberry scones? I'm sure when you see the abundance of flavors Pat offers up in her online store, you could think of a bunch of other pairings too.
This time around The Jam Lady is sponsoring a gift basket with 5 different Oregon Berry Jams. Each jar is about 1 1/2 oz each. The flavors include Blackberry, Huckleberry, Cranberry, Blueberry and Marionberry.
The blackberries and huckleberries are picked from the coastal hills of southern Oregon, and the blueberries come from a local organic grower. Those little berries can pack a bunch of sweetness in them, sometimes Pat has to make the batches of her blueberry jam as no sugar ones because of that!
How about some homemade cranberry jam for the holidays. You know they grow cranberries sweeter out west, that's because they don't have to harvest them as soon. Again, here is where the quality of T P Kitchen jams show, only fresh cranberries are used, never frozen.
And in case you were wondering what exactly a marionberry is...its a cross between a blackberry and an Owalla berry (and if you don't know what an Owalla berry is...that's what wikipedia is for!). It doesn't have as intense a flavor as a blackberry, and the marionberry jam is a favorite choice of many who purchase T P Kitchen jams.
This basket is a fabulous way to taste a variety of the many flavors T P Kitchen has to offer. Jams are a great gift to give at the holidays as thank yous, hospitality gifts, for foodies, for those who like handmade items, and there are always people who prefer consumable gifts to knick knacks, who knows you might start someone on a Jam Lady addiction!
One winner will receive the Oregon Berry Jam gift basket thanks to The Jam Lady.
