Including the juice, there should be no difference between thawed and frozen weight - so include the juice and use your usual recipes ;)

I freeze all my soft fruit as you say they come in dribs and drabzits  its better that way so your fruit wont spoil while you wait , i just wish i had room for another freezer , there is the shed .

Same as Chrissie. Most of the jam I sell is from fruit I've frozen either because I had too much at once or it ripened in dribs and drabs.
