THE JAM FAIRY

The name Christine Ferber is synonymous to jam. To say that her jams are the closest to perfection you will get is not an exaggeration. She picks the freshest and best fruits, both from her own orchard and from local farmers. She uses traditional copper cauldrons, and uses no more than four kilos of fruit at a time. These small batches of jams are made in her family’s patisserie, Maison Ferber, in the village of Niedermorshwihr in Alsace, France.

Not only that, she personally oversees the jam-making. The quality of her ingredients, the small batch creation, and her personal investment in each jar assures that her jams are only of the most superior of qualities.

And if you’re still not convinced, Christine Ferber’s jams are used in the best hotels and restaurants around the world. It’s also the favorite of some of the best chefs like Alain Ducasse and Pierre Hermé, to name a few.
