Oupa Jêm
Handmade preserves crafted in small batches by Hennie Fyver. Traditional recipes, local fruit, no shortcuts.
The Story Behind Every Jar
Oupa Jêm is not a factory. It is one man, his pots, and fruit from local farms. Hennie Fyver started making preserves the way his mother taught him: slowly, carefully, and only when the fruit is ready.
Every jar is filled, sealed, and labelled by hand at 17 Primula Avenue in Durbanville. Some batches are only a dozen jars. When they are gone, they are gone until the next season.
No artificial preservatives. No colourants. No mass production. Real food made the old way.
