Our story

JamTastic began with a single copper pot and a table full of neighbors.

We started in Bad Wildbad with baskets of fruit from nearby hills. The recipes grew, the orchard stayed close, and every jar still tastes like that first shared morning.

Bad Wildbad roots

Born in the heart of the Black Forest, where fruit trees line the hills.

Copper kettle tradition

Slow simmered so the color stays bright and the fruit keeps its bite.

Neighbors first

Every recipe is tested at a long table before it travels further.

Stories from the orchard and the kitchen.
