Note

Storage: Once set, store the jam in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks, or freeze for longer storage. Ensure jars are tightly sealed before refrigerating.

Ingredient Note: Do not substitute the Certo LIGHT Pectin Crystals with other types of pectin or gelatin, as this recipe relies on the specific no-cook properties of this ingredient.

Variation: For a slightly different flavor profile, try adding a squeeze of lemon juice to enhance the fruitiness.

Tip: Use fresh, ripe strawberries and kiwis for the best flavor and color. Underripe fruit may not set as well or may taste less sweet.
