| I would like to buy some maraschino cherries from GFS but they only pack them in large packages and I would like to re-pack them into 4 ounce jars so they can actually be used. I also wanted to use the juice for making jelly. How would I pack and process the cherries? |

| There are no instructions available for canning them except as a small ingredient in other fruit mixtures. They are considered a RE-processed item which is generally not recommended - freezing them would be the guidelines recommendation. So I would assume is you want to can them you'd do them just like any other sweet or sour cherry. But that all depends on how they have been processed so far? What liquid they are suspended in, what the ingredients besides the cherries are included? Dave |
