Meghan MarkleThe popular Raspberry Jam of its brand, like never before, the brand was sold quickly at the exit, but it has now raised eyebrows on its mass production in Illinois.

The Duchess of Sussex’s jam has also been the subject of a meticulous examination because of its texture, with the award -winning jam Gave Collins recently led it to “too liquid” and to question the use of the pectin.

However, others, such as local producer Maureen Foley, defended the brand, suggesting that Meghan Markle strategically targets a versatile niche market.

Meghan’s apricot jam attracts attention due to the location where it is made.

Although promoted as “inspired by the Meghan recipe made in its home kitchen”, the highly sought -after reserve would be made nearly 2,000 kilometers from its Montecito house, in a factory located in Illinois.

The jam would be manufactured by the Republic of Tea, a large -scale American company which also produces Tisology Packs from Meghan and its orange counters with Orange counters, which sells at £ 21 [$29] by pot.

Although it has not been officially confirmed that the same factory manages the apricot reserve, many assume it on the basis of the brand’s current supply chain.

A source close to the duchess confirmed to the Daily mail That the Republic of tea indeed produces its raspberry jam under the label like never before.

However, the source added that a new supplier will be on board for future prizes. While the Republic of tea has its head office in Larkspur, California, about 350 miles from the house of Meghan, real manufacturing would be located in Illinois.

The configuration of production on the industrial scale of Meghan has aroused criticism, because it contrasts strongly with the artisanal and local story portrayed in its marketing.

In the Netflix series of the Duchess, “With Love, Meghan”, she is seen to harvest bays and making jam in her kitchen, revealing that she was only 50 pots, one of whom saved for her mother.

A source defended the brand, explaining that the original recipe was indeed developed in Meghan’s house, but that the team “worked to develop a version that could be produced on a large scale”.

Her official website echoes this message, declaring that the jam is “inspired by the recipe she made in her home kitchen” and was intentionally designed with a loose and worm consistency.

In the middle of the in -depth examination, Netflix, who has teamed up with Meghan on his lifestyle, published a declaration in defense of the brand.

“Netflix and like never to be proud to work with the best category suppliers who meet our high standards for exceptional products”, he reads, by The mirror. “It was exciting to see how fans have adopted the product range like never before, the first two launches selling so quickly.”

The press release continued: “We are impatiently awaiting continuous success when we widen and publish more products like never all year round and beyond.”

Despite the sale in a few hours, Meghan’s latest product launch has aroused controversy, especially among experienced jam experts.

While many fans across the United States rushed to buy the sought-after pots, not everyone was impressed, notably Donna Collins, a decorated jam-maker and founder of Jelly Queens. With more than 40 world championship titles in his name, Collins did not retain his criticism.

Calling the apricot propagated “a real disappointment”, Collins argued that the labeling of the product a propagation rather than Jam reveals a false step of production.

“It is a real disappointment that Meghan sends a spread of fruit, what you do when your jam fails,” she said, according to the Daily mail. “In the jam industry, propagation is what we call something that has not worked.”

She added: “He can have the best ingredients, but if I had too liquid jam, I would run a label and I would call it a spread.”
