My mouthwatering conserve is a versatile gift. It makes a lovely garnish for rolls during holiday feasts, is delicious paired with cheese as an appetizer, and makes a great dessert topping for ice cream or pound cake. -Ginny Beadle, Spokane, Washington

I'm not a huge fan of plums, but this conserve is delicious! I love the way the spices complement the fruit.

This conserve is delicious, but it is a lot of work to make. I think it's worth it, though, because the end result is so good.

I followed the recipe exactly and my conserve turned out runny. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This conserve is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using less sugar next time.
