Stardew Valley Spice Berry Jelly Recipe Unveiled

Stardew Valley offers players a multifaceted experience with activities ranging from farming and mining to fishing. Beyond these core activities, crafting preserves and jellies presents another rewarding way to gather resources. Here's a guide to crafting Spice Berry Jelly in Stardew Valley.

How To Get the Preserves Jar in Stardew Valley

The Preserves Jar becomes available after completing the Quality Crops Bundle at the Community Center or by reaching farming level 4. This versatile tool lets players craft Pickles, Caviar, Aged Roe, and Jelly.

Jelly can be made from cultivated or foraged fruit. If obtained by Summer, the Preserves Jar allows players to turn Spice Berries into jelly. These berries can be gathered during Summer, scavenged in the Farm Cave year-round, or cultivated in the Greenhouse using Summer Seeds.

To unlock the Preserves Jar through the Community Center, players must submit three gold-quality crops from four options: pumpkins, melons, corn, or parsnips. The requirement includes five units of each selected crop—for example, 5 Gold Corn, 5 Gold Pumpkins, and 5 Gold Parsnips.

Once obtained, crafting Spice Berry Jelly is simple.
