I used the low-sugar Sur-Jel to make raspberry freezer jam. I followed the directions as in the box and it did not set after 24 hours. I then attempted to use the "remake" directions to remake the jam and it still has not set. All of the "fix-it" recipes out there call for cooked and canned jams or jellies. Any suggestions on how to salvage the 6 pints of jam I have sitting in my fridge? I can re-purpose them if need be, but I would like to try and fix the jam first. I have made freezer jam for the last 4 or so years and haven't had this issue before. Thanks!

Apparently, what happened is that the directions that the company put out were not appropriate: "If you tried making strawberry freezer jam recently and couldn't get it to set, the blame may lie with a bad recipe mistakenly inserted into boxes of Sure-Jell regular pectin, as reported Sunday in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel."

if that doesn't work, an idea would be to make pancakes or French Toast for a bunch of people and use it as a topping.
