Mildred’s Strawberry-Guava Jam
Posted by Ben | Under The Best -- Gourmet Gifts Monday Oct 19, 2009
Dear Foodies,
Ok, get ready for some of the finest jams and jellies that you have ever put in your mouth… a dear lady by the name of Mildred Crosby of Zolfo Springs, Florida whips up homemade goodies that puts Smucker’s to shame!
Although I have never physically met Mildred, I have ordered countless jars of her creations and everyone that I have shared with raves. My father and Mildred were in high school together and at a recent class reunion she introduced my parents to her strawberry-guava jam… my mother called me immediately and told me it was incredible.
Long story short, my mother was not mistaken! Mildred’s strawberry-guava is second to none. Although she does not sell this commercially, she may be kind enough to sell you a jar or two if you are nice. The best way to reach Mildred is via e-mail – mgcrosby@dishmail.net . Tell Mildred I said hello!

Benjy sent me a few jars of this…Needless to say, it is all gone. Truly incredible. It has the BEST taste ever. Great Christmas gifts and of course it is a little something different. Try it, you will surely enjoy it!
Would Benjy like to send me some jam?!
Does she make peach?
It’s like mom’s! I have an article about this jam upcoming — about comfort food after a loved one or pet dies…
I brought back While Lily flour for biscuits and made a panful Sunday morning - and this jam was perfect on them. Thank you, Benjie, for sending me some!
