    You are looking for a marmalade recipe that yields a firm gel, but you are going to want to strain it, you need to not have the rind/chunks in there.
    I dare say you won't get that bright, bakery-fake yellow though, not if you stick to wholly *natural* ingredients...

    ETA: try this Lime marmalade recipe | Dan Lepard | Life and style | The Guardian, but replace the lime for lemon.

    Have you thought about using lemon butter instead. My DH makes this and we use it for all sort of things. It is thick and tangy and very yummy

    That lemon jam stuff in the bakery lemon tarts is bought, it probably doesn't contain any lemon. I'd say look for a lemon butter or lemon spread recipe. Or buy a jar of Kraft (eta) Lemon Spread or even try a lemon meringue pie filling.
