Our Delightful Signature Blend Rica Barreja
Rica Barreja is LunaGrown’s own blend of fresh fruits kissed with natural vanilla. The name Rica Barreja means ‘Wealthy Blend’. Specific fruits have been chosen that complement one another and give this jam its sweet, rich flavor, with a hint of spiced rum.
Rica Barreja is special not only in the combination of its fruits, its cooking process, and of course its flavor. This special jam is only offered by LunaGrown. LunaGrown’s signature Jam! Anyone can combine fruits but it takes thoughtfulness and consideration to create a jam rich and balanced in flavor while retaining the fruit’s essential nutrients.
This jam is so satisfying that we almost wanted to eat it on its own, unadulterated and out of the jar. It seems a bit decadent, but catch me on a bad day, and I might be on the couch with a jar of LunaGrown Jam and a spoon.” ~ Elizabeth Segran, Contributing Writer, Fast Company,
As with all our products LunaGrown relies on the natural sugars of the fruit for the bulk of our sweetness. You won’t find any added artificial ingredients in any of our products. By creating our jam in this fashion we help you to discover new ways of enjoying, and serving jams.
There are many delightful uses for this jam other than the traditional application on toast. It’s wonderful in plain yogurt, on ice cream, over French toast, served with cheese and many others. Our favorite way to serve this jam is with a spoon. Just a spoon.

Harvey and Pearl Baked Goods –
I own my own baked goods company and take great pride in all of my products, using only the best and finest ingredients. LunaGrown jams are simply exquisite! Not only are these jams made with passion and love, but with refinement in mind. From the Rica Barreja to the Apple to the Cinnamon Raisin these jams are unique, perfectly sweetened and locally made. I have proudly used and will continue to use many of the LunaGrown jams in my products for a long time to come. I highly recommend ordering a jar for yourself or visiting a farmers market and checking them out. You will not be disappointed!

Received my 2 jars of jam today, opened the Rica Barreja right away and dug in with the spoon. Great flavor and texture, just the right amount of sweet, I like this one. Looking forward to the blackberry. Thanks LunaGrown for the quick service.

This has to be one of the best flavors ever. Not too sweet with a fantastic taste that is so unique you have to keep eating it. The mix of real fruit provides a great texture that makes it a delight to eat right off the spoon.

I especially love this one! It’s in a regular rotation with the other special berries jams, in which I pair my daily fresh ground peanut butter / jam sandwich.

Not sure who thought of the fruit combo but it is perfect. Perfect sized chunks yet easily spreadable.

Superb ! Some of the best mixed fruit jam I have ever tasted- this stuff should be illegal ( but I’m glad it isn’t ). Delicious chunky fruit content in every fabulous bite, and I can actually taste the different fruits ! : )
