Why Orange and Passion Fruit Work Together
Sweet orange brings warmth, softness and familiar citrus character. It creates a gentler base than a traditional bitter Seville marmalade.
Passion fruit contributes fragrance, lively acidity and a distinctly tropical note. Used carefully, it brightens the orange rather than covering it.
The finished marmalade remains clearly citrus-led, but with a fresher and more summery character than a classic orange preserve.
How We Make It
We cook this marmalade in small open pans, giving close attention to the softness of the peel, the development of the syrup and the balance between orange and passion fruit.
The oranges provide the structure and citrus body, while passion fruit is added to bring fragrance, freshness and tropical fruit character.
The result is a glossy, golden marmalade with enough depth for toast and enough brightness to work beautifully in cakes and desserts.
How to Enjoy It
- Spread on warm toast, croissants, crumpets or brioche
- Spoon over pancakes, waffles or porridge
- Swirl through Greek yoghurt or breakfast bowls
- Use in sponge cakes, pastries, cheesecakes or tarts
- Brush over orange cake as a glossy glaze
- Serve with ricotta, mascarpone, cream cheese or mild Brie
Chef-crafted, small batch, preserving excellence.
Sarah’s Maker’s Note
Passion fruit has such a distinctive aroma that it needs restraint. I use it to lift the sweet orange and bring freshness, while making sure the finished preserve still tastes unmistakably like marmalade.
Simple Serving Ideas
- Warm gently and brush over an orange sponge cake
- Ripple through whipped cream and serve with meringue
- Spoon over vanilla ice cream with fresh mango
- Use as a filling for thumbprint biscuits or breakfast pastries
- Layer with mascarpone and crushed biscuits for a quick dessert

I love this marmalade , a hint of sweetness. Again, something different from The Artisan Kitchen and as I never normally buy marmalade because of its bitterness, this was amazing for my first try.

New to marmalade was never my first choice. So glad I have tired this one, bursting with flavour sweet with lovely tangy orange taste. Delicious on toast and croissants. Looking forward to try the other flavours.

Having purchased from artisan several times previously, I pretty much knew the standard to expect. My go to flavour was out of stock so time to try something new. It didn’t disappoint. Perfect balance of not too sweet but not too sharp. Still love the pink grapefruit but nice to find an alternative for future use.
