This 220g jar of Prickly Pear Jam is a true taste of the Maltese islands. Made from the sweet, colourful fruit of the prickly pear cactus (Bajtar tax-Xewk), a plant that is iconic to the local landscape, this jam has a unique flavour that is hard to describe but utterly delicious. It’s sweet, fragrant, and truly one-of-a-kind.
This artisanal jam is a wonderful way to enjoy the taste of this seasonal Maltese fruit all year round. It’s fantastic on toast, with fresh ricotta, or as a filling for pastries. It also makes for a unique and authentic gift or souvenir for anyone wanting to take a taste of Malta home with them.
