Marmalade Magic entry for Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year Awards


Marmalade Magic



As I had made so much marmalade this year, I decided it would make a good photo.  I was pleased with the photo and sent it to the the Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year Awards.  I am so pleased that it has been shortlisted for a people's choice vote.

When I took my photo, I started stacking all my marmalades in a stack and decided because it was a sunny day, it would make a great picture with my perfect marmalade.  In the photo you will see a lovely orange glow as the sun comes through the jars.

This photo shows my favourite type of marmalade made with the best Ave Maria Seville Oranges.  These are very special as they are organic and make the best marmalade.  They are full of pectin and the marmalade sets in minutes.  Everyone loves the taste of the marmalade.  I bought them from Waitrose this year, when they had just arrived and even helped an elderly lady selecting hers.  She was very excited when I told her I had won the Children's Category of the World's Original Marmalade Awards a few years ago and I told her all about it. The jars and lids are from Love Jars, I especially like these patterned lids on my marmalade.

We went to the World's Original Marmalade Awards this year and I was proud that I entered 3 marmalade categories with my Blood Orange, Suffolk Lemon and Ave Maria Seville marmalades.  I was pleased to get three Silver Awards.  We had a great time visting Dalemain Mansion, going on the Ullswater Steamer and watching Peter Sidwell and Smokey Jo with their cookery demonstrations at Rheged.
