Written by the company
All our marmalades are 100% handmade from fresh fruit, simmered until the peel is soft before boiling to a set with sugar. In our opinion, this is the only way to make a good marmalade. The sharpness and clarity of the fruit shines through. Our Award winning marmalades are made in North Devon in batches of 22 jars, and have the kick to wake you up in the morning. Why make it yourself?

Packed with fruit and so tasty
Packed with fruit and so tasty. I wouldn't buy any other marmalade, I've tried a few in the past and nothing compares. Will definitely be ordering again

Unprompted review
Yummy marmalade!
Really yummy marmalade. I first bought it on a trip to Ilfracombe and am very happy you sell it online. Although the chocolate splattered would be worth a trip on its own!

A lovely gift of marmalade
I ordered four different marmalades for a Christmas present for my husband. Ordering was easy and the site was very clear about delivery times. Delivery time was as expected and the marmalades came beautifully wrapped in tissue paper and packed in a cardboard box together.
Looking forward to giving this present on Christmas Day.
