CleanPlate reviewHoney-sweetened berry jam with 65 g sugar per 100 g
Eatopia Mixed Berry Honey Jam lists fruit berries (70%: mulberry 35%, strawberry 35%), multifloral honey (29%), fruit pectin and concentrated lemon juice powder. The pack is 240 g and the panel is printed per 100 g, with a 15 g serve.
CleanPlate scores it EA4. The E for nutrition is low: almost no credited protein, fibre or micronutrients per 100 g. The A for ingredients reflects a mix of whole and refined ingredients (led by fruit berries, multifloral honey and concentrated lemon juice powder), and almost no additives. The 4 for risk comes mainly from free sugar (64.9 g per 100 g).

A closer look
Does the label add up?
Fruit berries (mulberry 35%, strawberry 35%), multifloral honey (29%), fruit pectin and concentrated lemon juice powder.
Per 100 g: 295 kcal, 0 g fat, 64.9 g sugar of which 29 g added, 0.35 g protein, 13.7 mg sodium. The panel prints added sugar of 29 g, annotated as natural sugar from honey, against total sugar of 64.9 g. Honey at 29% carries about 24 g of sugar and 70% berries only a few grams more, so the panel's total is far higher than the list suggests; the score counts the total sugar as free sugar (64.9 g) and is provisional. No fibre, saturated fat, trans fat or cholesterol line is printed. Atwater energy (295 kcal) matches.
Ingredients to watch
- Free sugarConcern
64.9 g per 100 g by the score, nearly three times the 22.5 g high line; the panel's added-sugar line says 29 g from honey.
- CaloriesWorth watching
295 kcal per 100 g, about 44 kcal in a 15 g serve.
- IngredientsFine
70% berries and 29% honey, with no refined sugar, colour or flavouring.
Common misconceptions
Myth: "Honey instead of sugar makes a low-sugar jam"
Total sugar is 64.9 g per 100 g, close to a sugar-based jam, and honey counts as free sugar.
Myth: "No added refined sugar means no added sugar"
The panel prints 29 g of added sugar per 100 g, from the honey.
