Made to our family recipe and passed down through the generations, Mrs Darlington’s legendary Lemon Curd is like sunshine in a jar. Fabulous on hot buttered toast or freshly baked croissants – it’s the taste of childhood memories.

Wendy –
This is the best lemon curd ever. Reminds me of my childhood. It tastes gorgeous on top of my own freshly milled bread and homemade butter. Think I need to stock up on more jars!
Mrs Darlington’s –
That sounds delicious. We would love you to keep stocking up with more jars ! Thank you.

So yummy could have sat and eaten it all from the jar…Took me back to the 60’s at home when mum made lemon meringue pie that was proper tasty. Bought 2 but will be back.
Mrs Darlington’s –
That’s exactly what we want people to think – great memories. Thank you for letting us know.
Mrs Tracey Harknett –
Absolutely scrummy. I never knew lemon curd could be so thick. Had to use 2 spoons. One for spreading and the other for to eat from. Won’t be buying the shop rubbish anymore that’s insulting to the proper stuff.
Mrs Darlington’s –
We love the idea of two spoons ! Thank you so much for letting us know.
Amanda –
Only thing that has stayed the same since I was a child. It’s happy memories in a jar please never change it .
Mrs Darlington’s –
We assure you we won’t ! Thank you so much for getting in touch.

I’ve never felt inspired enough to leave a food product review… until now. Having to cope with a gluten-free diet can be sucky. But now I’ve discovered this heavenly jar of utterly, drool-worthy lemon gloop I know I can no longer moan about having no decent sweet treats any more.
Having spent my life squealing yuck at US movies showing people licking peanut butter off a spoon, I am now a total hypocrite. This lemon loveliness sticks perfectly to a teaspoon to be langourously licked off like the best lemon tart – no cooking or pastry required. Double, triple, quadruple dipping and oops, I just ate the whole jar. I’m now seriously considering driving half an hour back to where I bought it to get my next fix, so thought I’d visit your site to see if I could locate a more local supplier.
I’m now wondering if I can fit ginger, toffee apple, lime, and nearly all your other curds into my tiny fridge along side at least two emergency jars of the lemon. They can’t all be this amazing. Or can they???
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you
😊 🙏 💓
Mrs Darlington’s –
What a fab review – Thank you so much. We think the rest of the curds are just as delicious – hope you enjoy them as much!
Mrs P –
We stay at stanwix holiday park ever year and every year I say “I’m buying that lemon curd this time” I never remember (being there for the kids makes it hard to remember yourself)
This time not only did I buy it but I’ve finally tasted it 😍😍 This is honestly the most beautiful curd I’ve ever tasted and I will absolutely be purchasing from you again.
Cheaper than most supermarkets and everything is just exquisite even down to what was clearly a very though out packaging.
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you so much for the great review and delighted to hear that you have had a chance to taste and finish our lemon curd! If you need to find a local stockist to where you live do get back in touch.

So I was staying at an air B&B in a market town Neston with my partner , we ventured into the town on Good Friday where the have a local market . As we surveyed the local produce I quickly spied your lemon curd amongst your other jams . So we bought a jar omg I opened the jar yesterday and tried some .
Well what can I say I wasn’t dissapointed my taste buds weren’t either 🤪 the best I’ve tasted for a while I will be purchasing more x
Mrs Darlington’s –
Fantastic- thank you so much for letting us know.
Julie –
Scoffed and moaned at paying over £3 from the farm for a lemon curd for my son.
Tried it once and will never go back to whatever cheap rubbish we’ve been eating before.
I’ve never seen a family united together, all over a farmhouse loaf and a jar of sunshine.
THIS is what real lemon curd is! It’s like eating joy!
We’re all fighting and arguing over who’s eaten more or how unfair the portion they have taken of it is. 🤣
It is DIVINE.
Please make family sized jars. (Or at least send it with stickers that say ‘vegetable broth’ so I can sneakily save a jar just for me.)
When everyone is in bed I’m getting up to stick a spoon in this bad boy and finish it all off and I don’t even feel guilty.

Mrs Darlington’s –
That made us laugh -fantastic feedback- thank you so much for letting us know that the lemon curd is such a huge hit with the family.
Amanda Smith –
Truly the best lemon curd I’ve had! Since my grandmas gone it tastes just like hers did! Thanks
Mrs Darlington’s –
That is kind – so glad it conjures up such good memories.
Kim Pritchard –
Absolutely amazing best lemon curd I’ve ever tasted respect you guys for making it I have ordered more it was that nice thank you
Mrs Darlington’s Preserves –
Thank you much for your lovely review – we think it is rather special too! So glad you like it.
Sally Lawson –
Wow. Delicious! I was given this lemon curd as a gift. A jubilee edition. It’s a real treat. I like lemon curd and haven’t bought it for a while as I found some were very artificial tasting, but I can honestly say this is the best I’ve ever tasted!! Will always buy this brand in future.
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you so much for letting us know Sally.
Becky –
Astonishingly good – recommend a teaspoon in a pot of plain yoghurt for sheer heaven.
Bought another “home-made” type brand when I’d finished this and it tastes like paint in comparison. So Mrs D’s website – here I come!
Mrs Darlington’s –
That’s music to our ears – thank you so much for letting us know. Enjoy !
Ann –
Amazing lemon curd bought from local farm shop, it’s the best I ever tasted.
Happy to discover your recipes too which look delicious so will give them a go when family are able to join in again and sample them.
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you Ann – that’s great to hear and we are so pleased you have some of our recipes too – we do hope the family enjoy them.
Kenneth Dickinson –
Our daughter has just bought an hamper for Mother’s Day & it has your lemon curd in it, my wife made me a jam sandwich with it & it made the hairs on my neck stand up the flavour is amazing I totally love it & recommend it, I am going to stock up straight away , thank you for the amazing taste of this lemon curd
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you Kenneth for your kind words. Our lemon curd , we believe, is really rather special – we are so pleased you think so too!
Joan Bichard (verified owner) –
The lemon curd followed by the orange curd is the best ever…. Thank you so much for doing an online shop and delivery. I had found the lemon curd in my local butcher but with the lockdown and shielding I have not been able to go shopping but doing it online I have now found the orange curd and the whiskey marmalade…… Look forward to my delivery and can guarantee another order in the future. Top marks and thanks to all.
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you Joan so much for letting us know – do try our other curds – there are lots to try and very hard to chose which is the favourite.
Heather Coffield (verified owner) –
I totally agree with the others and say this is the best Lemon Curd I have ever tasted, and being a favourite of mine since childhood, I have tried a few!
I am back 2 weeks after my first order to get more, fabulous!
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you Heather for taking the time to review our lemon curd – we are thrilled you love it, we do too !
Jane Ogden (verified owner) –
My Auntie Jean made lemon curd, simply the best ever, sadly when she passed we couldn’t find her recipe, so it went with her.
This is THE best I have had since! Just superb – I have to be careful not to eat too much. JUST DEVINE!! Thank you x
Mrs Darlington’s –
We are so pleased that you have found us – enjoy!
Mrs Turner –
The best Lemon Curd I have ever bought. I usually stock up when we visit Castle Howard on our holiday but due to the pandemic we didn’t have our holiday this year. I was absolutely delighted to find I can buy direct on this website. So I am stocking up! Really delicious. I highly recommend.
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you Mrs Turner for taking the time to review our lemon curd – we think its rather good too! But we have lots of other curds you can try as well – spoilt for choice!
Christine Gilbert –
The best lemon curd I’ve ever tasted. Full flavour and not over sweet.
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you for your wonderful feedback – we think so too!
Janette Thompson –
Excellent lemon curd bought from our local farm shop. My mum used to call this type “lemon cheese” and it’s hard to find, so I’m so glad I now know where to find it. I’ve just purchased the lemon and lime one and can’t wait to try it.
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you so much for your wonderful comments – there are lots of different curds to try and look out for our Tipsy Lemon Curd for Christmas!
Dorothy Latimer –
Been buying this for several years now. Puts all other lemon curds in complete shade. I love using it to make Brioche Lemon Pudding – makes you go weak at the knees!
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback – Brioche lemon pudding sounds delicious !
Sally Smith –
Definitely the best lemon curd ever. All you need is a hot buttery crumpet to spread it on!
Mrs Darlington’s –
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback – enjoy !
Kat Morris –
This lemon curd is the best I’ve ever had. Absolutely gorgeous and full of flavour. I will definitely be buying again!
Mrs Darlington’s –
That’s wonderful news – thank you so much for letting us know.
Ross –
This is genuinely one, if not the, nicest lemon curds I have ever had. I got it from my local butchers shop. Will definitely buy it again.
Mrs Darlington –
That’s great news-we are thrilled you enjoyed it.
