Back in stock. And quite possibly the brightest marmalade we make. 🍋

Our 3-Star Great Taste Award-winning Sorrento Lemon Marmalade has returned to the shelves.
Made with fragrant Italian Sorrento lemons in small batches in our Gloucestershire kitchen, this marmalade was awarded the highest 3-Star accolade at the Great Taste Awards after judges praised its:

“Explosive authentic flavours”
“Sun-kissed Sorrento lemons”
and beautifully balanced citrus finish.

In a competition judging more than 14,000 products, fewer than 2% achieve 3 Stars.
In 2023, The Artisan Kitchen received eight separate 3-Star Great Taste Awards, including this marmalade. Every product is judged completely blind on flavour alone.
What makes this marmalade so special is its freshness.

The aroma hits first. Bright lemon oil, vibrant citrus and fine-cut peel with a clean, lingering finish that feels almost freshly zested.
Not heavy. Not overly sweet. Just vivid, expressive lemon flavour from exceptional fruit.
Sorrento lemons are prized across Italy for their intensely aromatic peel and natural citrus oils, giving this marmalade its fragrant, lively character and distinctive brightness.

Beautiful on:
• hot buttered sourdough
• flaky croissants
• toasted brioche
• folded through yoghurt or mascarpone
• spooned onto warm lemon cake

For many customers, this is the marmalade that changes their mind about marmalade altogether.

Now back in stock online.
