Pomonas, Pectin Gluten Free, 1.1 Ounce

Made my first jelly followed thier directions and turned out very nice. Mine is low sugar and made a nice tangy jelly. Diffently will buy again.

I never had a problem making guava jelly using this product. When my hubby retired, he took over making it, used a different product and constantly had problems getting it to gel. I finally found the recipe and reordered the Ponoma brand and, walla, it's perfectly jellied again and delicious. Great product and I highly recommend if you want jelly with half the sugar or less.

Worked well for my chokecherry jelly. It was a bit too sour for most people but perfect for me.

This is the best pectin! My husband can't get enough of it, and literally will not use any other brand.

If you are using Pectin this is a good one. You can use less sweetener, which makes it lower in calories when you are done. It sets up very quickly. Generally, I like to cook without any pectin, and reduce the sugar even more, but then one has to cook it a lot longer. So if you want low sugar (honey, agave, etc) and have less time to process, this is the one to use. Tastes good!

I've been using Sure-Jell low-sugar pectin for a couple years now for canning all my jams. I like to use local, fresh ingredients and to keep things as simple as possible. I first heard about Pomona's here on Amazon, and was intrigued by the fact that it used no preservatives. The price was a bit of a shock, though - almost three times what the Sure-Jell costs when buying the single packet. But I decided to try one this year on my peach jam, and I'm so glad I did! These are what I like about Pomona's vs. Sure-Jell: 1) You can double or triple batches with Pomona's where that is not recommended when using Sure-Jell. This is definitely a time-saver. 2) I can use as much or as little sugar as I want. 3) Sure-Jell requires bringing to a hard boil that can't be stirred away, adding the sugar, then stirring for one minute more. With Pomona's, I brought it to a full boil, which took less time. It also increased the yield since the peach mixture wasn't boiled down as much. 4) With one packet of Sure-Jell, I can get between 12-15 4-oz jars of jam. With one packet of Pomona's, I was able to produce two batches of 22+ 4-oz jars (the second batch was made using only 3 1/2 C sugar)! So basically, it reduced the actual price such that it was more cost-effective than Sure-Jell. 5) I like that fact that is preservative-free. I did not really experience much color change using the Pomona's vs. the Sure-Jell, and didn't have any problem with the texture or consistency. I think this is now my pectin of choice!

I followed the instructions but my first time using Pomona my jelly came out thick, crumbly and rubbery. It will not spread. I did watch some reviews that said they used at least half of the pectin that was called for because of the same results and it worked better for them. I’m going to try again doing half less. I do think this will help a lot. It was very easy to work with and I had read so many people will only use Pomona. And I think I will love it also. I love using A LOT less Splenda so it’s mostly the yummy fruit or juice that is going in your body.

It is the best pectin for freezer jams. Turns out perfect every time. Also can use way less sugar.
