    Could you put it in truffles? I was thinking about this as I have 2 huge pots of Cranberry & orange relish I made. We can't afford the posh cheeses or cheese bites we normally eat it with and tho we had 2 packs of cheeses for gifts none had any brie or camembert in.

    It goes nice in porridge but I am getting bored with that now.As mine is thick and sweet and has orange and port in, was also wondering if it would work like a jam?

    Try these - they are yummy! Not quite like normal Brownies but my family wolfed them down.

    Stir it into stuffing next time you make stuffing from a packet mix.

    It would work like a jam because it has more or less the same ingredients as a jam!;)

    I tend to use it as I would a chutney or use it in dressings. I also dollop it on any dinners I feel the need to, usually along with a generous helping of mustard :D

    Use it to baste a strong tasting meat like duck or venison, then grill or bake. Even chicken bits or turkey legs would work.

    How about stiring it into plain yoghurt? If it isn't sweet enough add a little honey too.

    Mix it with apples and make an apple & cranberry pie.

    Anything you would use jam for, you can use cranberry jelly for.

    I made some to take away with us at Christmas, and stupidly left it in the fridge. I am however enjoying a goodly spoonful with my porridge every morning. I find it very nice indeed.

    Regards,
