"This is just so good we put it on everything have made several times just never reviewed it. I only buy raspberry preserves since that is what we love on toast so instead of the food processor I just add the preserves to the pot and when mixed push it through a mesh stainer for a smooth sauce but that is just our preference. The framboise is worth every penny if you are planning on making this frequently I am not sure of the shelf life but it will not spoil at our house I have been making this in double batches ever since we tried it and keep in the fridge.
