Our marmalade competition is back for 2026 and this year we have THREE categories to enter:

• Classic Seville Marmalade
• Marmalade with a twist
• Junior Marmalade Maker

Seville oranges are now available in the farm shop and they make a marvellous marmalade that’s brimming with that quintessential zesty, tangy flavour. Whether you go for a classic Seville style recipe or opt for your own creative version – our competition is the perfect place to showcase your marmalade! Winners will receive a hamper of Secretts goodies AND the chance to have your marmalade professionally made for our farm shop.

The brief!

If you are a traditionalist your entry must contain Seville oranges and if you want to enter our ‘marmalade with a twist’ route you can meander down a more creative path. Limes, Lemons, Grapefruits or any other citrus fruits you fancy can form the base of your entry. Or why not add a bolder twist with a shot of whisky or a hit of chilli? As long as it can be classified as a marmalade you can get as creative as you like.

Competition opens on Monday 12th January and entries close on Friday 27th February.

There will be a farm shop hamper for the winner of each category and the overall winning recipe will be made up for the farm shop by Sue Woodward and her team at award winning preserve makers Jam Packed.
