Raspberry jam is a thick, glossy fruit preserve made from raspberries, sugar, and pectin. It tastes sweet-tart with a bright ruby color and tiny seeds that add a light crunch. It spreads smoothly and holds its shape, making it ideal for toast, cake fillings, thumbprint cookies, and glazing roasted meats. Sold seeded or seedless, in standard or low-sugar styles.

Jam-making developed as a method for preserving fruit with sugar across Europe and the Middle East, with raspberry versions becoming staples in British, French, and North American cuisines. Commercial batches cook fruit and sugar to the gel point using natural or added pectin before hot-filling sterilized jars.
