I had never heard of Boysenberries before and don't normally buy things from the National Trust Shops on our visits, but I had nipped into the shop to buy a postcard for the children Great Grandma and there were jars of Boysenberry Jam on the side on special offer - £1 a jar.
So yesterday after searching Boysenberries on Google, Lottie and baked a Victoria Sponge Cake and we filled it with the jam and some buttercream.
Delicious!
Boysenberries are a three way cross between a Raspberry, a Loganberry and a Blackberry. It looks like Blackcurrant jam but doesn't taste like blackcurrants. It is fairly sweet with a slight raspberry and blackberry taste.
I am not sure I would pay over £3 for a jar (which is the price it should have been) however, at £1 a jar it is yummy!!!
