Upon returning to India in 2010, Apeksha was running a food blog, and missing the taste of banana jam, and being passionate about cooking, she decided to try it herself. She got busy experimenting it in her kitchen, added some rum and cinnamon to her banana jam and the first batch of banana rum jam was ready.

After seeing the very positive response and demand from her family and friends she has experimented using more Flavors. Apeksha decided to turn her passion into a business and in 2012 “The Gourmet Jar” was born with the desire to use real ingredients to create real food in their home kitchen.

Apeksha explains, “At TJJ we aim to bring magic to your kitchen with our range of delicious condiments (preserves, honey, mustards, sauces, and delicious spreads) in unique flavour combinations. These products are handmade with 100% pure and natural ingredients, and 0% preservatives & chemicals.
