 |
|
From the Daily Telegraph of 10 July 2010 :
Wood from Lord Nelson's flagship HMS Victory is being used to infuse oak flavoured jam. Off-cuts of timber from the 273-year old warship have given an added taste to the jam, which costs £5 a jar.
Sam Bompas of Bompas & Parr, said the jam was "one of the most affordable pieces of history - and you can spread it on your toast". |

Since the dawn of time man has struggled to unlock the secrets of eternal life.
Occult Jam is a small triumph over mortality.
Base ingredients are preserved through their transformation into jam and enhanced with powerful artifacts.
Occult Jam launches at The Surreal House exhibition at Barbican Art Gallery on 24th June 2010.
The jams include:
Absinthe and pineapple with sand from the Great Pyramids
Plum and Oak with wood from Nelson's ship The Victory
Milk Jam infused with a speck of Princess Diana's hair
Occult jam will be available to purchase from the Barbican Art Gallery Shop.

Bompas & Parr also claims to be the first group to ever record the sound of jelly wobbling. |
