WIN! SuperJam 100% pure fruit jams - DG 9th Birthday Sell Out Day 6

January 23, 2010

The Dietgirl 9th Birthday Sell Out The prize: One reader shall winneth six jars of SuperJam 100% pure fruit jam, courtesy of the jam man himself, Fraser Doherty.

Available to readers from: UK only.
But read on, globetrotters, if you like a good enterpreneurial tale!

What the heck is it?
SuperJam is a range of 100% pure fruit jams; sweetened with grape juice and made using Super Fruits, such as blueberries and cranberries. Nothing artificial is added and SuperJam is much lower in sugar and calories than regular jams.

SuperJam was created by Scottish teenager Fraser Doherty, after being taught to make jam using his Gran’s secret recipes at the age of fourteen. From humble beginnings, the company now supplies major UK supermarkets and is even included in a museum exhibit as an example of an ‘Iconic Scottish Food Brand’.

He also runs huge SuperJam tea parties all over the country for elderly people,wth live music, dancing and of course scones, tea and jam. You gotta take your hat off to this guy. See here you cranky grown-ups, not all the youths are doing nowt but drinking and spewing up kebabs in the street!

Superjam

Why do you dig it?
Because it's Scottish! And it's a fantastic story. And the labels are groovy. Oh yeah, and the jam is good. It's sweet but in a fruity, not sugary way. I love a blob of it in my porridge or on toast with almond butter. It is also magic on a freshly baked scone. Mmm mmm.

Simply leave a comment below to enter! Sorry, UK residents only. Entries close Wednesday 3 February 2010 at 12.00 GMT. Winner will be drawn at random.

Ha! I love his Twitter bio: "I run SuperJam, the 100% fruit jam company and tea parties for lonely elderly people." Lonely elderly people! An untapped market or the bane of telemarketers? You decide :)

How come I've never seen these in the jam section in ASDA! Man, this is a great idea.

Maybe I just wasn't looking hard enough?

ANYWAY yes, count me in for this one, too. :D /greedy

Oooh, bugger! If I'd known about Superjam, I'd have voted for some of that instead of the chocolate digestives. LOL

oh well, will order some for meself! Can't wait to try it on some fresh scones. (God, I miss good old Golden Crumpets.)

(Double buggerit, can't get any of the orange passionfruit.)

Mmmmmmmm..... jam and scones :o)

Is it only me, or is it cute that Dietgirl! is promoting SUPERjam! Breakfast spread fit for superheroes the world over! Dah-da-da-DAH!

Hi there!

Fraser sounds like a super guy. I'd like to try these jams out when I'm next over your way. Either that or I'll get the bros to bring some over to Japan.

Thanks for the heads up DG!

Jam?! What would Rosemay C say? What will it take to buy your silence (my mum makes great scones btw)!

Mmm, jammy jam jam! Yes please!

mmmm yummy jam!
I haven't seen it anywhere either, maybe I need to head back up to Scotland

I am not a Jamfan. My SignificantOne is.

Mmmm!

Yay jam! Count me in!

Love this Jam- makes high protein sugar free muffins taste great!

Jammin'

I've never seen that brand, but it looks so good. I've seen a few 100% fruit jams, but these ones look so tasty. Plus, 6 jars would probably last me all year!

Och you wee jammy bugger! What a grand prize!

Mmmm :)

yum!

They sound wonderful, can we buy them in England?

I love jam! Top prize. Winning would be a sweet victory indeed... (sorry for the rubbish pun)

I have totally missed these while shopping. Will keep my eyes peeled from now on. Love jam, hate sugar!

Well, I live in Kentucky, so I'm not eligible to win, but hopefully it will be available over here at some time in the future!

Oh yeah, yes please!!!!!!!

Yum yum, me please!!

Yum Yum! Count me in for the draw please. I saw this guy on a TV programme and thought what an inspiring lad he was, a great role model.

Jamtastic stuff!

yes please, is a great story and i love the superfood idea!

Mmmmm, hungry for jam.

How have I never heard of this before? Amazing.

Cool prize, I love jam, please could I enter.

mmmm, this jam sounds yummy, yes please!

I am another shallow lurker who is de-lurking because of the lure of free stuff. My excuse is that I'm a poor graduate student who was taught thrift at a young age and can't shake the habit. Blame my elders, it's all their fault.

Why yes, I would like some superjam.

Dear Shauna, I am a long time reader first time commenter, but what a lovely story! I shall certainly seek out this fellow's preserve in the future if I do not win your excellent lotto X

(sigh) lucky brits/scots!!! ;p

guess, i'll have to sit this one out!

Oh deep joy! My favourite Scottish snack as a child was a 'jeely piece' (bread and jam)and, as a grown up, am partial to crackers n jam (low sugar, high fruit). Have never heard of this brand or its fabulous community spirit. Will seek it out and do a taste test with friends, rock n roll!!

I HEARTS JAM.... nuff said.

They sound delicious. Im sure my daughter would appreciate them as much as me !!! fingers crossed

Yum!

Yum - jam!

Love the idea of this in porridge! Jam is one of those things that I always think I should make myself but can never be bothered...so I would love some free!

I haven't seen these in the shops yet but would LOVE to sample them! Hooray for Scottish companies too! :)

I love jam, and what a cool bloke that Fraser sounds :)

These jams look absolutely delicious!!! would so love to try them!

Yummy jam!

Yum -- I would love to try these.

Oops -- I'm from the USA and forgot this prize was for UK only.

Drooling I gave up jam along with a few sweet spreads in an effort to be healthy, but with SuperJam I can have my fruity fix. Thanks

Looks good, good on the Scottish boy!!!
