I got this from Asda the other day, it was 48p a packet.
Its the same set up as normal Jelly. You pour the crystals into a bowl or jug, add boiling water, stir till dissolved and wait. The instructions were on the inside of the box for some reason.
This contains no real fruit at all, its all false. The packet also warms of the additives might effect children. Well I was having this to myself I wasn't sharing it, but at least they warn you. You only get 400ml of Jelly so there isn't much to go around. But even with the additive warning at least I wasn't eating pork bits.
Well it looked like Jelly, it tasted like Jelly. I found that it was a bit more moist than Hartley's. It wasn't in a bad way, it just a different texture I guess, like slightly more slimy. Harltley's sticks to the bowl when you set it, with the Ahmed Jelly I would of been able to prize it all out of the bowl whilst holding its shape. Overall it was nice. They should sort out that additive part though, there's no need for that. They also could do with a sugar free variety.
Would I buy it again, yes I would.
oh it bought it today as well thankyou for the blog. :)
ReplyDeleteI was looking for the Directions !!!! Thanks
ReplyDeleteLol exactly the same issue here!!
DeleteCiao! Hello, from Italy! :) Thanks! Same issue here! There aren't any instructions on the box! Yes, the part about it being ALL fake is a bummer! Apparently, these strawberry jelly crystals.... never even saw a strawberry....all chemicals.....but I bought it anyway! I will be the only one eating it and of course, I would never serve it to children. Once again, thanks for the information and sharing your experience!
