Crabapple Jelly — Laura

from €7.50

A vivid pink crabapple jelly, intensely aromatic and beautifully bright.

At Fat Tomato, we grow a couple of varieties of crabapple in the garden, each bringing something different to the season. Laura is a striking red-fleshed variety, producing a naturally vibrant pink-red juice and a more perfumed, fruit-forward flavour.

The fruit is gently simmered and strained to create a clear, jewel-like jelly, naturally high in pectin and full of fresh, tangy character. With only organic raw cane sugar and Verna lemons to balance it, this jelly allows the fruit's colour, aroma, and flavour to shine.

We make all our jellies in traditional copper pans, preserving clarity, colour, and depth of flavour. The result is a perfectly set jelly with a slight wobble — just as we like it — bright, fragrant, and elegantly expressive.

Serve with Irish soft cheeses like Wicklow Farmhouse Brie, goat’s cheese such as St. Tola, or blue cheeses including Cashel Blue, Boyne Valley Blue, or Young Buck. It pairs beautifully with roast pork or duck, and adds colour and brightness to desserts and baking. Equally good spread generously on warm buttered toast.

Available as a 108g hexagonal jar for everyday use, or as a 165g WECK jar presented in our Gift Box, wrapped in our illustrated paper — inspired by the Wexford and Irish food story — and finished in our signature black box.

  • Serve with Irish soft cheeses such as Wicklow Farmhouse Brie, or goat’s cheese like St. Tola, where the jelly’s bright acidity and colour lift the richness beautifully. It’s equally at home alongside blue cheeses — including Cashel Blue, Boyne Valley Blue, or Young Buck — where its sweetness and gentle sharpness balance the salt and depth.

    In savoury dishes, pair with roast pork or duck, or serve alongside game for a touch of brightness. It also works well as a glaze or stirred into pan juices to bring a subtle fruit-led lift.

    For sweeter uses, spoon into desserts or baking — layer into sponge cakes, swirl through yoghurt or cream, or use as a filling for tarts and pastries. It adds both colour and flavour without overwhelming.

    And, of course, it’s hard to beat simply spread generously on warm buttered toast.
