Where Are Hafi Preserves Made? A Swedish Brand Story

Hafi is a Swedish preserves maker based in Brännarp, Halland, with a history of making jams and juices dating to 1938. Its Queens Blend and Blueberry Preserves sold at European Deli are made in Sweden; Queens Blend combines raspberries and blueberries, while the blueberry jar focuses on one fruit.

How did Hafi become a Swedish preserves brand?

According to Hafi’s company story, the business began as a small juice-making operation serving local suppliers and customers. It grew into a producer supplying customers in Sweden and abroad, while retaining its base in Brännarp.

The name on a retail jar tells only part of that story. Hafi also makes products for other brands and supplies businesses such as bakeries and ice-cream manufacturers. Preserving fruit is the thread connecting its consumer jars with that wider work.

What is in Hafi Queens Blend?

Hafi Queens Blend Preserves is a raspberry-and-blueberry spread in a 400 g jar. European Deli’s current ingredient listing specifies 25% raspberries and 12% blueberries. It is therefore not an equal-parts berry mixture: there is more raspberry than blueberry.

That makes the product name easier to navigate. Choose Queens Blend when you want both fruits in the same spoonful. You do not need to buy two jars and mix them yourself.

How does Queens Blend compare with blueberry preserves?

• Choose the blend for a two-berry spread. Raspberries and blueberries are both part of Queens Blend’s listed recipe.
• Choose blueberry for a single-fruit choice. Hafi Blueberry Preserves features blueberries and also comes in a 400 g jar.
• Match the jar to what you already enjoy. For someone who asks for blueberry jam, the blueberry jar is the straightforward choice. For a raspberry-and-blueberry fan, choose Queens Blend.

Our serving suggestions are simple: spoon either over plain yogurt, spread it on buttered toast, or serve a little beside pancakes. Start with a small amount and add more to taste. These are serving ideas, not claims about a traditional Swedish recipe.

Does Swedish production mean all the fruit is Swedish?

No. Hafi’s raw-materials information says most of its berries come from Sweden, but it also uses ingredients grown elsewhere in Europe and farther afield. “Made in Sweden” should not be read as a guarantee that every fruit in every jar was grown there.

For a specific jar’s ingredients and storage directions, use its current label. Brand-wide sourcing information does not identify the harvest origin of an individual batch.

What else do shoppers ask about Hafi?

Is Queens Blend the same as blueberry preserves?
