Straits Preserves is a Singaporean brand creating artisanal preserves inspired by the region’s tropical flavours and local heritage. Through thoughtfully crafted recipes, the brand celebrates familiar Southeast Asian ingredients in fresh and distinctive ways.
An abundance of tiny, ripe calamansi limes in the garden inspired founder Sharon Lee to create her first marmalade recipe. After many refinements, that very recipe went on to win The World’s Best International Marmalade Award 2012 at The World’s Original Marmalade Awards in the U.K.
This unexpected early success spurred her to explore more marmalade combinations using local ingredients. Working with tropical fruit—and without many Asian marmalade recipes to reference—led to flavours that are distinctly Singaporean. Since its launch in 2014, Straits Preserves has received numerous Great Taste Awards and accolades from The World’s Original Marmalade Awards.
Crafted with inspiration drawn from the abundance around us rather than traditional Western recipes, our Singapore-inspired flavours feature touches like pineapple in lime marmalade and coconut in peanut butter.
We source as locally as possible and actively seek the most sustainable suppliers we can find.
All our marmalades and peaconut butters are made without artificial stabilisers, additives, preservatives, or trans-fats. They’re simply natural, vegan, gluten-free, and delightfully different.
