A Concentrated Taste of the Islands Inspired by the century-old orchards of Orcas Island’s Crow Valley, these Italian Plum Cutting Preserves are a masterclass in patience and purity. Unlike traditional spoonable jams, this "membrillo-style" reduction is cooked down in traditional copper pots until it reaches a dense, sliceable consistency. It is a bold, "plummy" essence that captures the deep, honeyed sweetness of heirloom Italian plums without the need for added pectin.

Whether you are restocking your own pantry or sending a thoughtful gift from Dorothy Lane Market, these Italian Plum Cutting Preserves are the essential missing link for your next spread. While ordinary jams disappear into the crackers, this dense, sliceable reduction is crafted to hold its own against the bold profiles of our aged English Cheddars or the buttery, nutty notes of a Manchego. Shipping these together ensures a ready-to-serve gourmet experience—giving you (or your lucky recipient) the exact sweet-to-savory balance found in our famous DLM culinary displays.
The Perfect Pairing Designed specifically for the ultimate charcuterie board, these preserves offer a sophisticated counterpoint to salty and savory flavors. Slice a ribbon of this deep purple preserve to accompany a sharp aged Cheddar, a creamy wedge of Camembert, or savory prosciutto. For a sweet finish, try a thin slice atop buttery shortbread or a simple vanilla bean scone.
