Aunt Berta’s Old-World Plum Spread is handcrafted in Israel and slowly cooked to develop a deep and velvety flavor with the warmth and richness of homemade preserves. Thick and naturally aromatic, it captures the essence of ripe plums that are simmered until they reach a smooth and glossy texture that’s perfect for spreading on toast, pairing with pastries, or adding to yogurt and baked goods. Its flavor embodies the traditional European kitchens where this recipe was born and the patient cooking methods that give the spread its character.
The story behind each jar begins with Berta, who carried her cherished recipes with her when she immigrated to Israel more than 50 years ago. What started as her personal practice of preparing slow cooked preserves became a family tradition maintained by her children and grandchildren in northern Israel. The same attention, patience, and ingredient focused approach still guide the brand today, giving every jar a connection to the family that continues her legacy and to the land of Israel where it is still lovingly produced.
Ingredients: Plums (50%), sugar, fruit pectin, lemon juice.

Aunt Berta Old-World Plum Spread
Aunt Bertha’s factory is located southern end of the Carmel ridge between the hills of Zichron Yaacov, where it was established fifty years ago. When Berta started her business, it was with recipes from her European family. Berta took advantage of the many fresh, delicious fruits that grew close to her home, and she hasn’t looked back.
Today the team at Aunt Berta still prepares their delicious products according to the recipes created by Berta. They never use artificial colors, preservatives, or chemicals, rather relying on old-fashioned techniques and the bounty from the fields of Israel
