Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: Clear Jel Comment: I have been baking with Clear Jel for about 10 years now. Corn starch breaks down when pressure canned but Clear Jel maintains consistency through high heat. I always use it in place of corn starch for pie fillings and the like. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Product Comment: Want to preserve your peaches & apples as pie filling? I've been using this product from Berry Farm for 2 years and it makes a wonderful thickener for canning pie fillings.
