Meghan Markle is excited to share a sneak peek of her upcoming American Riviera Orchard brand with her close friends.

Fashion designer Tracy Robbins expressed her gratitude for the delightful basket she received, containing jam that she loves so much that she may not want to share with anyone. She shared her appreciation on her Instagram Story on Monday, April 15, saying, "Thank you M!"

Her message was written next to a photo of a basket filled with lemons, featuring a canister of jam labeled 17 out of 50. The American Riviera Orchard brand name and Montecito were also displayed, the place where Meghan, 42, lives with her husband Prince Harry.

In a second photo captioned by Robbins, she mentioned that "Breakfast, lunch, and dinner just got a little sweeter," giving a closer look at the package.

On Monday, Delfina Blaquier, the wife of Harry's close friend Nacho Figueras, received another package.

In her Instagram Story, Blaquier shared, "Strawberry jam makes me happy" while tagging the brand. She also expressed her love for the jam.

Meghan made a big announcement on March 14 by launching the Instagram account for her new lifestyle brand. This comes after a five-year break from social media. Speculations suggest that American Riviera Orchard is a continuation of Meghan's old blog, The Tig.

The brand's Instagram bio reads, "By Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex Established 2024." There is still no additional information available about American Riviera Orchard. However, fans who visit the website are encouraged to sign up for a waitlist by providing their email address.

Meghan's first Instagram Story featured her arranging flowers and cooking. We found out on March 20 that Meghan has applied for trademarks for her brand, and the United States Patent and Trademark Office has accepted them. The official document mentioned that the application has fulfilled the basic filing requirements but has not been assigned to an examiner yet.

American Riviera Orchard will offer a variety of products such as cutlery, cookbooks, and jarred foods, like the jar of jam that's being sent out before the official launch.

Meghan and Harry have more business ventures in the works. They recently announced plans to expand their Netflix deal with two new nonfiction projects. One of the projects is a cooking show featuring Meghan, while the other will follow the world of professional polo.

Meghan is set to celebrate her love for cooking, gardening, entertaining, and friendship, as reported by Deadline.

Following their decision to step down as senior royals, Harry and Meghan inked a deal with Netflix in September 2020. Through their production company, Archewell Productions, they have created content, including the six-part docuseries "Harry & Meghan" which premiered in December 2022.
