Mastering Spice Berry Jelly Production in Stardew Valley
Stardew Valley offers a diverse range of activities, from farming and mining to fishing. However, crafting preserves like jellies adds another layer of gameplay and profit. This guide details how to create Spice Berry Jelly.
Acquiring the Preserves Jar
The Preserves Jar, essential for jelly-making, is obtained in two ways:
- Community Center Completion: Contribute three "gold quality" crops (pumpkins, melons, corn, or parsnips) – five of each – to the Quality Crops Bundle.
- Farming Level 4: Reach farming level 4 to unlock the recipe.
The Preserves Jar is also used to create Pickles, Caviar, Aged Roe, and other jellies. Spice Berry Jelly, specifically, requires Summer season Spice Berries. These can be foraged outdoors during Summer, found in the Farm Cave year-round, or grown from Summer Seeds in the Greenhouse.

Crafting Spice Berry Jelly
Once you have the Preserves Jar (50 Wood, 40 Stone, and 8 Coal are needed to craft it if you don't get it from the bundle), follow these steps:
- Gather Spice Berries: Find them during Summer or in the Farm Cave. Use a Seed Maker to create Summer Seeds for future harvests.
- Place Berries in Jar: Put a Spice Berry into the Preserves Jar.
- Wait: The process takes approximately two to three in-game days (54 hours). The jar will pulse while the jelly is being made.
- Collect Jelly: Once complete, the Spice Berry Jelly icon appears above the jar. Collect the jelly, which restores energy or sells for 160 gold.
