How to eat these jams?

The obvious way would be to spread these jams on bread/toast for breakfast... but here are a few other ways you can enjoy the different flavours of I'll Be Jammed!

~Lemon & Mint~
It's great with practically anything. You can have it with any kind of bread, bun, bagels, crackers, biscuits, muffins or any pastries. You can spread it on, top it off, as a side, use as a filling or any other way you'd think might excite you. The Lemon & Mint curd can also be used as a dessert topping for ice creams, yoghurt or even custards. This versatile spread can be eaten in many ways that you can imagine.

~Tomato & Basil~
It's no pasta sauce but a perfect match to cheeses & meat. Spread on a layer over a cream cheese toast or a meat sandwich and you got yourself a fantastic tasting snack/meal. It's also nice as an hors d’oeuvres topping, a nice twist off the normal bruschetta or even paired with a little smoked salmon. Of course, this jam also goes with most baked goods and is very suitable as a mini pastry filling.

~Watermelon & Lime~
This refreshing jam can be eaten in similar ways to the Lemon & Mint but the one thing that really stands out is eating it with pancakes. Because this jam has a lower sugar content and it's chunky texture, it really is a nice jam to have spread over pancakes. I've even tried spreading this jam in a banana roll and deep frying it as a dessert. Lovely!

~Lime & Ginger~
Since this is a very unique jam that only certain people will like, it's a privileged to mention that this jam is best with crackers and even 'yau char koay'. I've had one lady mention to me that she tried it as a dipping for cucur udang. You don't need to drown these fried foods in the jam, just have a little to enhance to food's flavour. I've had surprising outcomes experimenting with this jam & other foods. So just pick up the courage to try it in different ways.
