Ball Realfruit Low No-Sugar Needed Pectin (3 Pack)

Like the title to this review indicates, this low/no sugar pectin is a GODSEND! Originally, I made my jams with Sucralose (Splenda), but the end results, while tasty, were somewhat 'cloudy', so I decided to switch to white and/or brown sugar, usually getting away with 1/4 to 1/3 of the sugar required in a jam recipe (which can be as much as 12 to 14 cups of white sugar, in a single batch). I usually make a double batch, inwhich I use about 1/3 jar of this pectin, and *maybe* 4 cups of sugar, then cook to soft-gel stage, then jar & water-bath process, as usual (as I'm at a higher elevation, I have to process for a longer period) Everything always turns out great - bonus: with less sugar, you can taste more of the actual fruit! 😋If you're looking to reduce the sugar content in your jams & jellies, this is the stuff to get - enjoy!!!

Works great especially if you wish to make low sugar jams/jellies. I've been using this brand for years and years and I consistently get good results. Highly recommended.

I really like Ball pectin. Getting a 3 pack at a reasonable price is a real plus. I’ve made one batch of low sugar plum jam and it turned out great. Using low sugar pectin allows more fruit flavor to come out rather than just the taste of sugar. Plus delivery came quickly as promised.

Always reliable! I like the ability to control the amount of sugar without worry of it not gelling properly.

Works pretty well for making jam. It doesn't get when hot so it's important to test a small portion of your product in the freezer to know when it's done. When you start seeing small bubbles you are pretty much good to go. Doesn't require very much sugar at all.

Just what I wanted.

I have been makong jams.and jellys anf fruit syrups for over 35 years. i followed all the dirrections as i was told by the people at ball. None of the jelly i make set. None of the syrup i made.even got thicker them the juive it self. as im stirring durring rapid boil the pectin started to lump up. im have never iny life had so mamt problem with any other productI sadly ordered another 3 jars before i realized i have over 40 jars of canned juice ar this point. terribly disappointed. im going to see if i can get my money back for the 3 that jis3t showed up.but what a waist of time amd money to end up with juice sugar and pectic canned with no thickness at all what so ever. And trust me i dod everything the ball people said .

Sometimes, though, I need to reduce the sugar for different guests and family members. This product seems to work, but the set is not as firm as SureJell using sugar. I think it makes a bit of a cloudy jelly, too, but maybe it's just me!!! Good product for specialized use.
