Leading premium brand, Bonne Maman, is being relaunched in Australia by national food marketing and distribution business, Menora Foods.

Bonne Maman, the unrivalled market leader in France with more than 35 percent of market share, is now available in Australia at leading independent supermarkets and from September in selected Coles stores nationwide.

“Menora Foods is excited to add Bonne Maman conserves to its range of market-leading brands, and allow Australians the opportunity to experience one of the most beautiful and well known French brands in the world,” said Assistant Managing Director, Sam Schachna.

Crafted in France, Bonne Maman conserves are made with a minimum of 50 per cent real fruit, with no preservatives, artificial colourings and flavourings, making it
the healthier choice. Bonne Maman conserves feature four simple ingredients including pure fruit, natural sugar, lemon juice and fruit pectin. The fruit and sugar are gently mixed together to create the perfect consistency, then slowly cooked to perfection.

Bonne Maman is then packed in the stylish French facetted jar, famous red and white gingham lid, and distinctive handwritten logo that has made them the most sought after conserves in more than 100 countries worldwide.

As Australian consumers show a growing interest for premium offerings, Bonne Maman with its unique design, emphasis on quality ingredients and home-made appeal, sends a reassuring message of quality and tradition.

Available in 370g jars, Bonne Maman’s range of flavours is extensive, offering a variety of twelve conserves such as favourites Strawberry and Apricot, the classic Orange Marmalade, or more unusual varieties such as Fig and Damson Plum.

    More foreign rubbish that has travelled thousands of miles to get here and from farmers supported by their government which ours starve.

    I have recently discovered Bonne Maman jams and conserves and I want to place on record my assertion these are the best jams I have ever purchased both with respect to flavour and in particular consistency of texture. Sincere congratulations on a great product.

    hi there,
    I’m in Croydon, vic.
    Where can I buy bonne maman fig jam?

    I bought 2 jars of Bonne Maman jams last week. Went back this week to get more and found it was only a promotion for one week. I was very disappointed as according to my whole family this is the best jam they have ever eaten.

    Can you please advise where I can buy then in Melbourne.

    Look forward to you reply.

    Julie Brown.

    In addition they are one of the only producers world wide of Black Cherry Jam.. I have not been able to find a commercially produced black cherry jam that is not made in France.

    Great to see this jam back readily available. It is the best jam on the market. If Australian jam makers could make it as good then I would consider purchasing their product too

    The comment above re ‘foreign rubbish’ obviously hasn’t tried this product. Philosophical objections to imported food products don’t change the fact that Bon Manman (& St Dalfour for that matter) blow away any locally produced jam I have tried that is available in commercial quantities. Beerenberg from South Australia is probably the closest but it’s still pale in comparison to the above two French brands.

    When local producers start making jam of this quality I will buy it. Until then, let the boats come! Bring more jam.

    apricot preserve is my favourite and now I do not need to bring it back from France.
