@taniwharugby Pectin is the setting agent which is a sugar itself, normally in the skin I think and cell walls of the fruit, so you are probably correct. You can buy it, a jam setting additive, it should be just pectin so should be a natural product (not some glue).

@Snowy yea I only added sugar, I've never added pectin which some recipes (and fruit) suggest you do.
Berry jams usually. Raspberries and suchlike don't have enough on their own.

New plant or second/third season?
My Rocotos are onto their 6th year! Last year was the biggest harvest. This year looks good but not as plentiful as last year.
