Quince jam

Quince is a unique fruit. Rough and astringent when raw, it is transformed through cooking into a jam of enveloping softness with an amber hue and subtle notes of honey and natural vanilla. Once found in orchards throughout Provence, this autumn fruit deserves particular care to reveal its full richness.

At Lilamand, it is prepared with the simplicity that defines our range of jams: 60% quinces and cane sugar cooked together in an open copper pan. This traditional method allows for slow, natural evaporation, which respects the fruit’s texture while concentrating its aromas. The result is a smooth, fragrant jam with a gently spiced flavour that evokes childhood teas and autumnal afternoons.

This jam is the natural extension of our confectioner’s expertise. Since 1866, our family business has worked with fruit in all its forms in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. Our intimate knowledge of the raw ingredient — its ripeness and how it is cooked — is evident in every jar: no artificial ingredients, no unnecessary additions, just fruit and sugar in their purest form.

Whether spread on buttered toast at breakfast, served with a cheese board or used to fill an autumn tart, this quince jam adds a warm, comforting touch.
