What it is
Bonne Maman Peach Reserve is a fruit spread made with a high proportion of fruit. It is prepared using whole pieces of ripe peaches and sugar, cooked gently to preserve the natural flavor and texture of the fruit. The reserve style indicates a richer fruit content compared to standard jams. It is packaged in a glass jar, sealed for freshness.
