fruit preserves
Sweetened cooked fruit
Fruit preserves are fruit cooked with sugar to create a spreadable, shelf-stable product.
The sugar acts as a preservative, hence the name.
The term covers jams, jellies, marmalades, and conserves, though these have technical distinctions: jams contain crushed fruit, jellies only the strained juice, marmalades include citrus peel.
