Canterbury News:

I will be attending the three-day Christmas Through the Ages event at Canterbury Heritage Museum in Stour Street, from Friday 2nd to Sunday 4th December

As usual, I will be at the Artisan’s Market every 4th Saturday (find us near WH Smiths), and you can also buy from Canterbury Visitors’ Centre  in  Buttermarket, outside the Cathedral Gate.

Ready Steady Cook

Real Marmalade  is  based at Kennington in Kent. We sell at a few Farmer’s Markets, and were, till recently members of Produced in Kent, who have been very supportive.

Jams.  We make a range of traditional jams using fruits from local Kent growers, again, using just fruit and sugar:
Strawberry, Victoria Plum, Blackcurrant, Redcurrant Jelly
Damson Jams are back in stock, and we also have some supplies of Bramble Jam.
How can I get Real Marmalade right now?
Real Marmalade is available at:   Farm Shops,    Delicatessens and specialist food shops

Gift Packs are available at Farmers’ Markets and Shows, packed to your personal specication in seconds.

The custom-made  packaging protects the jars well  and displays the contents attractively for the lucky recipient!

Prices range from £9.00 to £10.50

With many recent cost increases, particularly fuel, gas, jars, sugar and especially fruit , it has become uneconomic to service many Farmers’ Markets and outlets.

In particular Seville Oranges rose from £12/case in 2009 to £20/case in 2010 (when Real Marmalade started we paid £7/case!). These costs are reflected in our selling prices.

Remember that we do not use added gelling agents to allow us to skimp on fruit content. We intend to stay at the low volume - high quality end of the market.

Real Marmalade is therefore concentrating on just a few markets, Farm  Shops and local Shows. Many loyal customers already use our Mail Order and Direct sales options (below).

Direct Sales & Mail Order   We can deliver local orders direct to your home. There is no charge for this service BUT a minimum order equivalent to 1 dozen jars applies (any mix).

You may order by:   telephone - 01233  611578;

Mail - Mill Cottage, Mill Lane, Kennington, Ashford, Kent  TN25 4EL; or

email  orders@realmarmalade.com      or: download Local Order form (pdf)

Your order will be delivered “as and when” we are in the area. We will telephone to confirm this is convenient.

Mail Order Service   We accept any size of order.  We charge a flat rate contribution of £7.00 to cover handling, post & packing. Because of  the high actual cost of postage, our “Farmer’s Market” offers do not apply to Mail Order.            download Mail Order form (pdf)
