What I love most about this pectin is that it lets me control the sweetness. I don’t have to load the fruit up with sugar just to get it to set properly. I can use the natural sweetness from the fruit and still get a soft, flexible texture that dries well and doesn’t crack. The fruit leather comes out smooth and easy to peel, not sticky or overly stiff. It gives just enough structure without making it tough. That was important to me because I wanted something my kids could chew easily without it feeling like candy. The instructions are clear and once you understand how it works with the calcium water, it’s very straightforward. A little goes a long way, so even the small containers last quite a while. If you’re trying to make fruit leather, jams, or other fruit snacks with less or no added sugar, this is a really useful ingredient to have on hand. It gives you flexibility and better control over the final texture. Review: Excellent product, I won't go back to other pectin; update: 2015, 2016 still my favorite - 2019 update: still my favorite! I have experimented with the amount of pectin to make syrups to conserves and jellies and jams. I love the fact that I can make products without sugar or with very little sugar. I have used pure stevia with great success. I have not used a stevia mix like those commonly availavle but I think it should work fine. It had been so long I don't even remember the old days of sugar sugar sugar and that does not bother me one bit. 2016 update: I put up about 60 jars of jam qand jelly last year and all sealed and made it through the winter well. I was set to teach my nephew to make jam and had desertcart send Pomona's Pectin to him. The dog ate it (to no ill effect thankfully) so we scrambled to find some elsewhere. No luck in 5 grocery stores and one chain natural foods store. Finally, I said just get the old standby and we used that. Confirmed my earlier belief. I was shocked at the amount of sugar it took to get a gel. There is no other pectin for me but Pomona's. 2015 update. After eating all of the jam I made in 2014--all with Pomona's--we are back to jamming season. The past year stood the test of time and we are happily using it again this year. Four batches in and four batches great. I substituted, per a professional jam maker's conversion, 2 TBS for each 1 3 oz liquid pectin on one recipe. It makes a nice steak :-). I will use half that amount next time round. This jelly set hard as a delicious rock. I am still amazed that I can use so little sugar and have a good product. Last year I used 1 sugar to 4 fruit and we decided it was a little less sweet than we liked. I upped the sugar : fruit ratio to 1 1/2 sugar to 4 fruit and increased the acid slightly. We are very pleased with the results. Interesting twist on pectin. This pectin uses calcium to set rather than sugar. You can use very little sugar and still get a very good jell. I won't go back to other pectins. I did have trouble with the first couple of batches and contacted the company. They were immediately responsive calling me back in just a short time after I left a message. They helped me track down my error. I was not mixing the pectin well enough with the small amount of sugar I was using so my texture was grainy. I made over 50 jars of jam in 10 batches and after the first two batches, which are certainly usable, my jams set with absolute reliability. ## Features - Citrus-based pectin for making jams and jellies - Requires calcium to gel—enables low or no sugar recipes - Preserves the natural flavor of fruit - Works with a variety of sweeteners, including honey or agave - Ideal for traditional or sugar-free canning - One 1 oz package makes multiple batches - Vegan, gluten-free, and non-GMO ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B006K3SJKO | | Age Range Description | Adults | | Best Sellers Rank | #14,257 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #5 in Cooking & Baking Pectins | | Brand | Pomonas | | Brand Name | Pomonas | | Coin Variety 1 | Pectin | | Container Type | 2-pack container | | Cuisine | Universal | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,813 Reviews | | Item Form | Pectin | | Item Package Weight | 0.11 Kilograms | | Item Weight | 1 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Pomonas | | Material Feature | Sugar Free | | Material Features | Sugar Free | | Model Number | KHR-414-B | | Number of Items | 2 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Part Number | KHR-414-B | | Set Name | 2-pack | | Size | 1.1 Ounce (Pack of 2) | | Specialty | Sugar Free | | Unit Count | 2.2 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Pomonas - **Item Weight:** 1 Ounces - **Material Feature:** Sugar Free - **Specialty:** Sugar Free - **Unit Count:** 2.2 Ounce ## Images ![Pomonas Universal Pectin,Container, 1.1 Ounce (Pack of 2) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/819BwY6AxLL.jpg) ![Pomonas Universal Pectin,Container, 1.1 Ounce (Pack of 2) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/3121CqW6fPL.jpg) ![Pomonas Universal Pectin,Container, 1.1 Ounce (Pack of 2) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91oenSlXawL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: what is included in the package? Is the calcium included?** A: Yes, 2 packets are in each box - the calcium packet and the pectin packet..... **Q: Can this pectin be used for freezer jam?** A: Yes it can. On the pamphlet that comes with the pectin, there is a section for freezer jam. **Q: Is there an expiration date on this product? Just wondering if I bought multiple boxes if they would go bad before I had a chance to use them.** A: According to pomonas - this "Keeps indefinitely." **Q: How many teaspoons in 1oz. Packet?** A: According to Pomona's: "The larger, thicker packet is tan-colored pectin powder. This packet contains 9 teaspoons of pectin on average but this average may not be exact for your packet. The smaller, thinner packet is white monocalcium phosphate powder. This packet contains at least 1/2 teaspoon of calcium but it could contain more." ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for homemade fruit leather without added sugar *by C***Y on February 24, 2026* I bought Pomona’s Universal Pectin in the 1.1 ounce pack of 2 specifically for making homemade fruit leather for my kids, and it has worked exactly how I hoped it would.

The real flavor of the fruit comes out without all that awful sugar. And the website has many many recipes. They also send necessary proportions of ingredients so you can design your own recipes. I made a tropical flavor with mango, papaya, pineapple, a splash of coconut milk and dried grated coconut. Excellent! I also made cherry brandy, peach maple, peach amaretto, bourbon peach, peach cherry, and others. Everything set up and they were so easy to make. It still requires some sweetener, but not very much. You can use honey, agave, monk fruit, maple syrup or whatever you want. Even Stevie! And it's more like a half cup of honey versus 4 cups of sugar with "regular" pectin. I'll never use anything else. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pomonas Universal Pectin,Container, 1.1 Ounce (Pack of 2) - Authentic Foods Superfine White Rice Flour - 3lb - Authentic Foods Superfine Brown Rice Flour - 3lb --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/4361775-pomonas-universal-pectin-container-1-1-ounce-pack-of-2](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/4361775-pomonas-universal-pectin-container-1-1-ounce-pack-of-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
