When you find yourself with an abundance of beautiful fruit, it’s the perfect time to make jam. You could make jam yourself for gifts, but a sweet idea is to give a jam-making kit instead. Place some ripe fruit, preserving jars, a sugar thermometer and a wooden spoon in a jam pan along with a recipe. It’s a delicious idea for those who love to get their hands dirty in the kitchen. And best of all, you will get to sample the result.
