***Use only standard canning jars, sealed with flat metal lids, screw bands removed. All canned and dried food exhibits must be labeled. Label must be placed as near to the bottom front of the jar as possible. Note if citric acid or lemon juice has been added to canned tomatoes. Do not use paraffin on jams or jellies. Jams must be processed according to USDA recommendations and noted on the label. The Ball Canning Book can be consulted for accurate information and will be used by Kalama Fair judges for judging standards. Jams made with low sugar, no sugar or substitute should be properly labeled.

Blue Ribbon Tips! The judge will look for fruit evenly distributed throughout the jar. Liquid should cover contents. Sealed lid should not be rusty. Jar should be clean. Product should be cut into even pieces and should have uniform ripeness with a liquid that is not cloudy. No overripe products should be canned. Processing time & method should be noted on outside of jar.

Blue Ribbon Tips! The judge will be looking for a prepared product with evenly browned tops. Texture is extremely important with the right mixture of moisture and chewiness. Taste should be a good blend of ingredients. Breads should be a nice shape loaf. When yeast bread is cut into, no fragrance of yeast should be detected. Air bubbles should be evenly spaces and without large holes or tunnels. The thickening used in a pie should between runny and too thick. The bottom crust should be lightly browned and not doughy. The sweetness is a personal preference.
