Our Crellow ‘Quince Charming’ conserve also makes an unusual but scrumptious addition to a Victoria sponge.
For those of you who enjoy baking, try adding some Sisley’s Orange & Ginger marmalade to your tea loaf mixture to create a moist and spicy tea time treat.

Try Sisley’s Blackcurrant or Raspberry preserves, loosened up with a drop of hot water as a fruity cheesecake topping, or add a spoonful of Sisley’s Rhubarb & ginger or Crellow Rhubarb & Grapefruit to thick Greek yoghurt. Extremely Moorish!

A number of consumers tell us they like Crellow Apple Date & Ginger chutney on toast as a marmalade, not as sweet and easily spreadable. Goes down a storm in toasted sandwiches also!
The soft caramel sweetness of Crellow Onion Chutney is excellent with cheese on toast or toasted sandwiches, as is Crellow Tom Foolery, a mixture of tomatoes, peppers & red onion with a little dried fruit, popular with children.

We recommend Crellow Old Dowerhouse for camembert and other rinded cheeses.
