For all those who haven’t seen a Mountain Apple this is it. This is the mixture of the skin and the pulp of the Mountain Apple together. The pulp is actually white. Mountain Apples produce here usually 2 times a year and don’t last long. Unlike other apples they are softer inside so shelflife is short. What a beautiful looking and tasting jam it makes. We have quite a few trees growing on our farm.
Papaya Coconut Jam what a treat! Along with the the papaya and the coconut there is just a hint of ginger to add that tropical twist. This seems like one of the fastest selling and one of my first made jams. This one takes longer but it is worth the wait. Pick up a jar and try for yourself.
Our newest addition to the family of fine tropical flavors is No Sugar Added Lychee Jam! It is Packed with Lychee fruit and has a taste that is all its own. We haven’t seen Lychee Jam out on the market and feel it is so good that people just have to have it. The great thing is that this is No Sugar Added, so all of our sugar sensitive friends can enjoy this rare tropical treasure!
To all of you who can enjoy our LOW sugar Lychee Jam please do so, as we are running a “buy 5 and get the next 2 for free. That’s right 7 for the price of 5.
Thank You, and Aloha

Anita Roscoe, owner with husband Steve Roscoe, of Island/Valley Delights of Pahoa, have been selling for the last three years a variety of homemade breads, pastries, butter, jellies, jams and preserves as well as fresh eggs from their own chickens. Steve sells at the Volcano Market which is also on Sunday mornings. The couple also sells the bread through several retail locations.
“I learned to can and cook as a child, says Anita, and when my husband lost his business I decided it was my turn now. I started with just the jams then went to sweet breads. I saw yeast bread was needed and about one and a half years ago I started baking breads. We have since started a website www.islandvalleydelights.com and have been kept busy there”
Anita says her best selling products seem to be jams, cinnamon rolls, banana bread and her sandwich bread. “I sell my breads at Abundant Life, Keaau Natural Foods, and Down to Earth. I also sell bread to Kaleo’s, Black Rock Café, and to Ponds Restaurant. I sell my jams at KTA, Hilo airport, Kona airport, Honolulu Airport, and Down to Earth.
Anita enjoys sharing her products one on one and talking story. She especially loves repeat customers since they validate the joy she feels when she is creating what she sells.
We are back up! We experienced some technical difficulties this spring but we are back up and running. This site is now functional and working. We are working on its appearance now. We hope to have this site look as wonderful as our jams taste soon!
