Your freezer jam may have turned pink due to a reaction between the fruit's natural pigments and the acidity or sugar levels in the mixture. Certain fruits, like strawberries or raspberries, contain anthocyanins, which can change color based on pH. Additionally, if the jam was exposed to air or light during the freezing process, oxidation could also contribute to the color change. This pink hue is generally harmless and does not affect the taste or safety of the jam.
To properly store homemade jam in the freezer using pectin, allow the jam to cool completely before transferring it into airtight containers or freezer-safe bags. Leave some space at the top of the container for expansion during freezing. Label the containers with the date and type of jam. Store in the freezer for up to 1 year.

If the jam is not setting properly try adding the juice of a lemon and boiling it all up again for five minutes and then re-testing the set. it You can do this by putting a spoonful or so of the jam onto a very cold plate (taken from freezer). put it back into the freezer for 10 mins. Take it out and push the surface of the jam gently with your finger -- if you see the surface wrinkling up, the jam should set and can be put into jars.
