    yes it is i made it every year when the children were here, it was lovely to have with ice cream as an alt pud at christmas the strawberry is a nice way to have frozen rather than just freezing the berries on their own, the certo is a natural pectin and you dont taste it, it is less thick than ordinary jam but would do well in black saturns cobbler
