£3.6


Key Characteristics:

  • Texture: A soft, chewy outer layer with a liquid or semi-liquid fruity gel center. 

  • Flavor: A variety of fruit flavors, often including apple, blackcurrant, lemon, and strawberry, derived from natural or artificial sources. 

  • Appearance: A colorful mix of various shapes and vibrant hues. 

Common Ingredients: 

  • Sweeteners & Syrups:

    Glucose syrup, sugar, and sometimes invert sugar syrup provide sweetness.

  • Gelling Agents:

    Gelatine (made from animal sources) or pectin (a plant-based gelling agent) are used to create the chewy texture and set the jelly center.

  • Acids:

    Citric acid, lactic acid, and malic acid contribute to the tartness of the sweets.

  • Humectants:

    Sorbitol and glycerol help to maintain the moisture and soft texture of the candy.

  • Flavors & Colors:

    Fruit and vegetable concentrates (like carrot, blackcurrant, and safflower) and various colorings (such as E100, E120, E133) are used to enhance the flavor and appeal.

  • Glazing Agents:

    Beeswax and carnauba wax provide a shiny finish and prevent the sweets from sticking together.

Why Ingredients Vary:

The specific ingredients in a jelly-filled mix can vary significantly between manufacturers. Some mixes may be vegetarian, using pectin instead of gelatine. The selection of colors, flavors, and fruit concentrates will also depend on the specific products included in the mix.
