beth

I like fig preserves, but living in a city, it's difficult to get figs to make my own and the storebought ones somehow just don't make the cut!!

Raspberry jam. No one in my family likes it, so when I get to have some, I could probably down a loaf of bread with butter and raspberry jam. 🙂

Karin Muserallo says
I love preserves of any kind. Two of my personal favorites are fig and pear preserves. We Southern girls have these fruits in almost in every back yard! Preserves seem to be the truest essence of fruit flavor in a jar! I love the idea that Smuckers has actually got some regional fruit! My sentimental favorite is strawberry preserves. My grandmother and mother both made them! <3

Pam says
Raspberry jam is my hands-down favorite!
Cindy says
I know I would love the triple berry jam; but the tart-cherry preserves would be my second choice.

Jan Harris says
Not sure if it's a jam or preserve, but I love orange marmalade, love that bitter sweet taste.
Melissa says
I love peach jam!
Michelle says
I love raspberry preserves. Usually I put it in some sort of baked good and combine it with chocolate. 🙂
Leah says
Hands down, strawberry preserves. Nothing beats this classic. It's the best dessert substitute while babysitting, when I want to avoid the kids getting too much of a sugar rush!
Maureen says
I am more a jam girl. I tend towards a cherry flavor too.
Martha in KS says
Jams, jellies, preserves, I love you all so much, and prefer those with chunks of fruit. But my favorite is your cousin - Orange Marmalade. Sadly, the FAA regulation of 3 ounces or less has put a cramp in my buying local jams/jellies when on vacation.
Cindi says
I like preserves. My favorite is Fall Harvest Cinnamon Apple Preserves. One day when I was making Carmelitas, I discovered (a bit late) that I didn't have any Smucker's Caramel Topping. I substituted the Cinnamon Apples preserves, and the resulting bars were very good!
sharlene says
saskatoon jam is my favorite, or orange marmalade.
angela says
i prefer jam or preserves. (dislike jelly). saskatoon jam is my favorite, but i'll take strawberry or blueberry too.
Shari says
peach jam!
Rachel! says
boysenberry jam!! i love the slight chunkiness and tartness from the berry. delicious on honeywheat toast!!
Tierney M. says
Hmmmm...I'm torn between Orange marmalade and Cherry preserves. Both are my absolute favorites.
NanW says
Homemade Huckleberry jam can't be beat!
Jennifer says
I love jam and preserves but don't actually like jelly (my kids do, though.) My favorite flavor is strawberry, but I love to use orange marmalade in recipes.
crystal says
Love preserves and jam equally, and my favorite flavor is cherry.
Pat says
My vote goes to the Apricot/Peach. Love to bake with those flavors.
Kara says
I love blueberry preserves! YUM!
Rebecca says
I love red currant jelly! Takes me back to my grandmother's kitchen.
Kari says
My favorite is Raspberry jam with seeds. Yummy. Homemade is best.
Sue says
In the last couple of years I have become truly fond of apricot preserves. When I was younger I hated apricot anything so this is an interesting twist for me. I've used the Smucker's Orchard's Finest Apricot and Cherry. They were both really great. I'd love to try the other flavors too.
Pam S says
I love Smucker's strawberry preserves!
Claudia Holland says
Orange marmalade is my favorite, but then after that would be the tart cherry. Yummy
Kat says
I like grape jelly and homemade seedless dewberry jelly.
Sara says
I am probably pretty boring--my favorite is strawberry jam! I love that stuff!
CindyD says
Smucker's strawberry jam. That's the kind we ALWAYS have in the refrigerator.
Karen says
Jam! Blueberry first then apricot.
But really, fruit and sugar is just plain yummy!
kate s says
My favorite is apple butter - not sure which category that falls into....
Erin says
I probably buy jam or preserves more than jelly, but I can't say that I truly have a definite preference. My favorite flavor is blackberries.
Janet says
I love raspberry and apricot preserves, I bake with them alot and I only use Smuckers. I love the orange marmalade on toast.
Mary says
I love to have little chunks or bits of fruit in my spreads - so would that be a jam or a preserve? Anyway, these all look delicious!
tiffany says
Cherry preserves is my favorite flavor!
Kathy says
Cherry preserves just look and taste the most homemade and authentic, imo.
mrsblocko says
I can never remember the difference between jam, jelly and preserves. That apple cinnamon flavor looks really yummy though!
Valerie says
If we're going store-bought, I love Smucker's apricot preserves. My favorite jam, however, is my mom's homemade peach or strawberry - num!
Supergoo says
Preserves = Yum. Any kind of berry - berrylicious! I love it all.
Lesley says
My favorite flavor would be Red Tart Cherry - great on toast and scones.
Jenn says
Strawberry preserves for the win. Like a poster above, I agree that buttered toast with strawberry preserves is a total comfort food, as it a peanut butter & strawberry preserves sandwich on homestyle white bread.
Robyn says
Like many who have posted, I'm a strawberry preserves girl. There is nothing I find as comforting as a piece of buttered toast with strawberry preserves. I like other preserved fruits as well, but strawberry is my favorite! I'm don't really like "jelly" at all. And I'm not entirely sure what "jam" is.
Patti L says
Strawberry preserves it is! I love the chunky texture! YUM!
Darlene says
I love to use raspberry jam in the thumbprint cookies my mother called "Cream Cheese Cookies" because cream cheese is one of the ingredients in the cookie dough. You have to use jam (not preserves) in that cookie, otherwise the circle of raspberry would be sloppy looking. We always use a "baby spoon" (one left over from when we were babies) to carefully place the jam in the center of the dough (neatness counts in our family).
Allison W says
I'm a raspberry jam girl all the way!
Carol G says
Raspberry preserves are my favorite.
Erin M. says
Cherry preserves!
Rodzilla says
I knew somebody would say marmalade lol, I'm definitely a jam or preserve guy, I like the fruit chunks.
Martha in Georgia says
I have always been partial to strawberry preserves but my boys (husband and 15 year old son) LOVE cherry.
Susan says
Jam, apricot, and I just happen to buy .Smucker's.
lindsay weiss says
Orchard's Finest Tart Cherry Preserves are my favorite condiment ever! I can eat that stuff straight from the jar.
I also use the OF preserves when I bake my world famous Tart Cherry Cheddar Bars. (And by world famous I mean...our household.)
Amber L says
Strawberry Jam.
Thank you for the opportunity!

Meredith @ The Little Bee says
Strawberry jam is my favorite, especially when it's homemade using strawberries picked at the local strawberry patch!
Though I became hooked on marmalade when I was living in England...on toast, on scones, on everything!
Carly says
raspberry preserves WITH seeds 🙂
April says
I love peach or nectarine jam. I prefer jam or perserves over jelly. I have a jar of Smucker's Orchard Perserves Peach and Apricot in the fridge. I got it at Target.
Cheryl R says
I'm hooked on cherry preserves.
marleen says
My husband and I now live in Washington state and got hooked on raspberry jam with scones!! That is our favorite flavor with blackberry jam a close second.

I love cherry preserves. I like the chunky factor and it goes great on top of plain Greek yogurt!
Sara says
I love preserves, and strawberry is my favorite, with peach being a close second!

Strawberry preserves are the best, a reminder of a summer day.

Hard to beat Smucker's Strawberry Preserves.
Tracy says
I love having raspberry jam or preserves on hand at all times. Raspberry is great in thumbprint cookies, baked into a coffeecake or swirled on the tops of brownies before baking.
jan says
Preserves, yum!
Christy says
I prefer preserves as well, I like the chunkiness, and I think they retain more of the fresh fruit flavor. I have tried the smuckers perserves, the "Coastal Valley Peach Apricot" is the best, it's sweet and tastes so natural- perfect for the centers of thumbprint cookies! My local store doesnt carry the blueberry but I'd love to try it.
Katie says
I've always been partial to strawberry preserves 🙂
Gloria says
I love prefer triple berry jam on toast, or melted, poured on top of, and then firmed up on cheese cake!

strawberry preserves all the way although raspberry is a close second....

DPLK says
I am a marmalade girl through and through, and I am probably most partial to a good sweet orange marmalade. Of the ones you mentioned, though, I would pick jam, sour cherry.

I love preserves. Getting a chunky piece of cherry is the best. Thanks for the give away!

Love boysenberry preserves! Also had Triple Berry which is also good.
