I'll third it. I have made apricot jam with dried apricots and sour cherry
jam with frozen cherries. There is a cherry farm about a mile from me that
picks, pits and freezes sour cherries and sells them for a lot less than it
costs me to buy them fresh, and then I have to pit them. It saves me money
and a bundle of work to buy them frozen to make jam.
