acts as a natural taste enhancer when you add it in any
recipe. So by adding honey in the strawberry jam will make its
taste and smell too much yummy. The second ingredient will
be brown sugar as it is also very sweet in taste and you do
not need any artificial sugar if you are using this to make your
strawberry jam. The third ingredient will be adding mango
juice to give it a little extra yummy scent. So by using these
three ingredients you can make your strawberry jam extra

that they both are different products. A jam is made by

Well there is no additional sugar in the strawberry preserves
as it the actual fruit of strawberry and nothing is added to it.
So the sweet taste that is in the strawberry preserve is of the

something from strawberry preserve then we add sugar into it
to make it more sweeter as the actual taste of strawberry is
not pure sweet it is a mix of bitterness and sweetness
combined.

Well the most common and probable reason for a strawberry
jam to turn brown is due to the overcooking of sugar. As you
overcook the sugar in strawberry jam then the color of the
strawberry jam is already very dark as compared to normal
color of strawberry jam. Another reason can be that it may you
might have open up the container of the jam a long time ago
and due to long time the color of the jam is turned to
brown.
