JellyBelly Jelly Beans

Taste

Jelly Belly are an upper class jelly bean. They certainly taste a lot, and I mean a lot, better than your average supermarket variety. I sampled:

• peach - just like those peach lollies you can get
• juicy pear - tastes like a sweet william pear, absolutely divine!
• coconut - beautiful, sweet coconut fragrant!
• raspberry - a bit too artificial and too sweet
• green apple - tastes more sweet than tart and sharp, not the best
• lemon - an intense burst of lemon flavour, quite nice
• orange - pretty ordinary and boring
• tangarine - quite tangy and fresh, much better than the orange
• red apple - much better than the green apple and more the apple flavour I was expecting
• wild blackberry - kinda sweet, taste a bit more like grapes than blackberry... or maybe that was grape...
• grape - like the fake grape lollies you get at the Asian stores
• blueberry - a subtle berry flavour and very pleasant, not too fake but beautiful
• plum - very similar to the blueberry but a bit sweeter and sharper
• banana - like those banana lollies I hate. People really should stop making things with that banana flavouring. It doesn't taste like bananas at all!

Now I want to try them all!

Look

Love it. My sample came with a "recipe" where you can make all these food by combining different jellybean flavours. e.g. tiramisu = cream soda + cappuccino + cappuccino + coconut
banana split = top banana+chocolate pudding+crushed pineapple+strawberry jam+very cherry+cream soda

They come in the cutest packaging, with the cherry Jelly Belly logo. Each jelly bean is very small, and colour coded to represent the different flavours. They have the coolest names too!

C-factor

I got all my samples for free but they are a bit exy when you buy them normally.
