about Danish selecion – Fruit Spreads
FACTS about DANISH selecION
“Strawberry cellar”
The Danish selecion brand was established in 1834 by the “Strawberry cellar” - which at that time was located in Copenhagen on the very famous 'Strøget', which is the world’s longest pedestrian street
The “Strawberry basement” was the place wher people from Copenhagen and the provinces came to buy carefully picked, fresh, berries and fruits. In an adjacent summer restaurant the customers could buy coffee, tea, homemade ice cream, fruit desserts and layer cakes.
The original recipe
After 1922 the summer restaurant began to stay open all the year round – serving strawberries and cream when in season and stewed fruit with thickening and cream at other times. In the following years a jam factory was established, in which jam was produced and sold in old-fashion jam jars with brown and white labels – just like today.
The production consisted of a very gentle handling of the berries in open kettels, according to the “strawberry cellar” original recipe – a production method which is reflected in today’s jam manufacturing proces.
From 1979 'The Danish Selection' has been used as a trade mark for the popular jam.
