Can jams be started virtually staight away, or are they like chutneys and best kept for a couple of months?

I used your receipt for Marrow & Ginger jam, which was truly lovely, using jam sugar. Can jam sugar be used in this recipe? Is it as sweet as granulated?

Yes you can. Keep the fruit in the same proportion to the sugar.

I have not made jam before, can I use apples, blackcurrants and raspberries in a mixed fruit jam?

As long as you follow the sterilizing procedures and get a good seal, at least 12 months.

I want to make this mixed fruit jam for Xmas presents, how long will it keep for?

At least 12 months. It's best left to mature for about 3 months so it will be ideal for Christmas.
