Po' Bastard Makes Marmalade

Po' Bastard had two old oranges, and a lot of new clementines. Po' Bastard decided the best use of old oranges (and one new clementine) was to marmalade them (yes, to marmalade is a real proper infinitive, and can be conjugated into many verb tenses).

While Po' Bastard did follow the recipe (well, sort of, she did a half-batch-- half the weight of fruit, half the sugar, and the juice from only one lemon), she was left with a thick, somewhat settled, marmalade stew. The consistency is unspreadable, but it is dollop-able: Po' Bastard envisions plopping some on top of a bowl of oatmeal, or maybe even on ice cream.

This leads Po' Bastard to ask a question of her adoring fans: can anyone characterize marmalade's proper consistency? Thick or thin? Dark or light? Soupy or spreadable?

Help?
