Can I substitute Raspberries for Strawberries and use the same ingredient quantities?

If pectin is a type of fiber why is there no fiber content in, “realfruit classic pectin?”

Reviews

The previous reviewer is incorrect. The nutrition information is correct; the serving size is ENORMOUS. It actually makes about 30 servings (2 tbsp each), not 5; each has about 35 calories and 7.5gm sugar, roughly (due to the natural sugars in the fruit).

I took the tip from another reviewer and used 2 boxes of low or no sugar Sure Jel and had excellent results! I have been making sugarfree jam for my diabetic husband for many years. After Ball quit making the pectin I always used as and discontinued the recipe, I was forced to go digging for a new one. I used Splenda in this recipe, along with the 2 boxes of Sure Jel. By far the best sugarfree jam I have ever made! I may try a batch with Stevie to see how that works.

This was great - I doubled with 2 boxes of Low Sugar Sure Jel and next time I will add less Splenda because I think it was pretty sweet. It set up well and my kids love it.

3 cups of crushed berries, 2/3 cup of Splenda, 1 box of Pectin. Came out absolutely amazing. Set perfectly and tastes divine. Best freezer jam I’ve ever had. I used strawberries picked that day.

I made this and as someone said to use 2 boxes of the sugar free or low sugar sure-jel and mine was like gummy bears. I measured out the amount of strawberries and used Splenda, so I don't know why mine turned out too stiff
