Natco Mixed Fruit Jam in a glass jar for toast, croissants, scones, sponge cakes, thumbprint cookies and breakfast buffets.
Natco is a brand of Natco Foods Ltd in England, and the back of this glass jar says the jam is made in Holland for Natco Foods Ltd, England, with the natcofoods.com web address and the text repeated in Arabic. Through the glass the jam is a deep ruby red. As general background, sweet fruit preserves such as jams, jellies and marmalades are often eaten at breakfast with bread, or used in a pastry or dessert, and they are usually stored in glass jars. A mixed fruit jam typically suits every one of those jobs. Commonly, hotel breakfast buffets spoon it into small ramekins beside butter and croissants, cafes serve it with warm scones and clotted cream, and bakers spread it between the layers of a Victoria sponge. It also fills jam tarts, thumbprint cookies and doughnuts, and swirls through plain yoghurt. The jar is glass, so it can go straight onto a breakfast table, and a mixed fruit flavour typically pleases children and adults alike at the same table. Leftover jam also glazes fruit tarts. Use a clean, dry spoon each time, and keep an opened jar in the fridge with the lid screwed on tight.
