Alpe Pragas Plum Fruit Spread with 75% Fruit Content
The Alpe Pragas Plum Fruit Spread is true jam artistry: fruity, not too sweet, creamy in consistency. Simply a small moment of luxury in the morning.
Prunus domestica, as the common plum originally from Asia Minor is called, belongs to the rose family. The stone fruit was pitted by diligent hands and cooked with only a little sugar and lemon juice. The Alpe Pragas plum fruit spread tastes great on warm crepes or with quark or yogurt. We really like this variety because it's not plum butter and not plum jam, but a fruit spread with a high fruit content.
In the Pragser Tal, the Gruber family has been growing berries since 1994 at an altitude of approximately 1250 m. In this alpine mountain climate, the fruits ripen longer and thus develop a particularly intense aroma. Great importance is placed on cultivating the fruits as naturally as possible: the seedlings are planted by hand, the fields are weeded several times until harvest, and irrigated with river and spring water from the Dolomites.
The plum spread – Pruna in a 335g jar has a fruit content of 75%, gelled only with natural apple pectin.

Finest from Fruits – Quality from the Dolomites
Alpe Pragas is a gourmet manufacturer that produces the finest from fruits in the heart of the Dolomites. Since 2002, Alpe Pragas spreads have been a permanent part of our product range, and from the beginning, we have been enthusiastic about the special quality, the intense fruit flavor, and the unique consistency of Stefan Gruber's fruit spreads, marmalades, and organic jams. What is produced in the Alpe Pragas gourmet manufactory brings a smile to every gourmet.
The fruits are harvested ripe by hand, pitted, cleaned, and cut, then gently cooked without additives or preservatives. Vitamins and the natural color of the fruits, but above all a wonderfully intense fruit flavor, are thus preserved. The fruity range includes marmalade, fruit spreads with a high fruit content, organic jams, syrups, mostarde, and chutney as perfect accompaniments to cheese, meat, or fish dishes. Good products from South Tyrol for connoisseurs: Fresh, fruity, authentic! Simply delicious.
Alpe Pragas – Goals for the Future
Stefan Gruber continuously invests in more energy-efficient production. For this purpose, in 2010 he built a state-of-the-art production facility, as well as an alpine-designed sales and tasting room, and a new office wing. The processing of fruits is an innovative process, yet as much as possible is done by hand. By optimizing production processes, resources can be conserved and energy saved, and waste has been reduced. As a family man, he feels a responsibility towards the next generation to handle water, energy, air, and soil resources carefully. Stefan Gruber loves the region where he grew up and now lives with his family. "We want to produce green and become an ECO-Manufactory," he tells us.
