About Our Products |
| Jam - A
jam is a product sweetened with sugar and boiled to produce
a thick product which will not run out of the jar when inverted.
A traditional approach to fruit based jam products |
| Jam Type Spread
- Similar to above. Uses sugar, but with less boiling time
and less thickeners to produce a spread from which will pour
or spoon from a jar. |
| Spread
- Uses fruit and fruit juice concentrate. No sugar added.
These products will pour or spoon from a jar. |
| Choice of Sweeteners
- The choice of sweeteners added to the product are one method
by which products can be differentiated from competition.
Riverbend Plantation manufactures both products sweetened
with sugar, and products sweetened with fruit concentrates. |
| Products sweetened
with Sugar - These products are all lightly sweetened
with sugar to give that old fashioned taste that so many people
associate with jams. |
| Products sweetened
with fruit juice concentrate - These products only contain
natural fruit sugar as the sweetener and are particularly
good for people who are trying to avoid foods sweetened with
sugar. This method of sweetening also allows the true fruit
flavours to be tasted creating a 'fresh fruit' taste. |
