Overall, it tasted like the regular raspberry jelly with gold sparkles in it.

[Review] Waitrose Scrumptious Summer Pink Lemonade Jelly
While I was at Waitrose, the Scrumptious Summer Pink Lemonade Jelly caught my eye so I got it.
Inside it was pretty ruby coloured jelly with raspberries.
You would think the jelly would taste of raspberries because of the colour but it tastes of lime cordial.
In a way it was nice but I was expecting the jelly to taste like lemonade as the product is called Pink Lemonade Jelly.
Overall, the jelly was creative but the taste could have been better.

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Fruit Jelly
At Marks and Spencer, there are fruit jellies in the chilled section: blackcurrant juice, raspberry and Fruit Jelly.
After trying the blackcurrant and raspberry, decided to try the fruit jelly.
The fruit jelly was much nicer than anticipated because there were orange pieces, grapes and pineapple in it.
The jelly base was pleasant with a pleasing orange taste that was not too artificially.
Overall the three flavours are nice in different ways so it is hard to say which one is the best but I appreciate the quality because they put fresh fruits in it.

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Blackcurrant Juice Jelly
From trifles to mousse you will find jelly at the dessert section.
The thing that takes Marks and Spencers jelly to the next level is the use of fresh berries.
There is Blackcurrant Juice Jelly and Raspberry Jelly.
The blackcurrant juice jelly is interesting in the sense that it has blackcurrant juice which is why I tried it.
Yet in the jelly itself there are blueberries as well as blackberries.
The blueberries are plump and fresh that they literally pop in your mouth, the blackberries had some pips in them but overall I loved the jelly.
However the texture of the jelly is not wobby but more like a gel.

[Review] M&S Marks and Spencers Raspberry Jelly

Tried the blackcurrant juice jelly so this time got the Raspberry Jelly.
Out of the two, I liked Raspberry, again the raspberries were fresh and sweet.
The raspberry jelly had a full taste to it so I am so glad I tried this.

Hartley's Strawberry Jelly 135g
If you are British, you will obviously know that jelly comes in jelly blocks before you make it.
In some other countries they come in powder form like Hartley's glitter jelly.
I decided to post this so that people can see the jelly block before it is made and I always ending eating some of it before making the jelly.
It comes in a packet like this:
When you remove the wrapper, there is a pretty jelly block that is firm and tough.
To make the jelly, it is best to cut them into squares cubes.
Obviously I ate some because some of the cubes have disappeared and they taste amazing just like that with a lovely strawberry fragrance and they are not too sweet!
You just simply add boiling water, let it dissolve and pour it into a container and let it set in the fridge for a few hours.
Here is the jelly that is ready.
It is slightly lighter in colour.

teapigs birthday blend - jelly and ice cream
teapigs is a famous brand of artisan tea in the UK.
They are now all over the world.
I encountered them a few years ago when they had a stall at the Island East Markets and now you can find them all over Hong Kong and available at most restaurants and cafes.
Time flies and it is now their 10th birthday.
Thank you tea pigs for this lovely box which had the birthday blend and a glass cup and saucer to go with it.
I loved the packaging because it was colourful and the graphics are well designed like their other teas. This is what makes them memorable and outstanding.
On the back of the pack, there is a special message from Louise which I couldn't agree more especially memories of Woolworths pic'n'mix.
Sadly it doesn't exist anymore and lots of sweets and crisps have become extinct and many traditional British meals and desserts are rapidly disappearing or being modernized :(
Anyway, lets get back to the tea.
jelly and ice cream blend is the best way to celebrate because it is fun and everyone likes it.
The ingredients in this tea are: apple, blueberry, orange peel, liquorice root, citric acid, strawberry pieces, vanilla pieces, natural vanilla flavouring, raspberry flavouring, natural cream flavouring, natural biscuit flavouring.
When I took the tea temples out, there was a lovely sweet berries and cream smell and the tea has a pretty pink colour to it with a fine tart taste to it.

Hartley's raspberry flavour glitter jelly
I was so excited when I saw Hartley's new glitter jelly range in the supermarkets.
There are three flavours:
-Hartley's Mixed Berry Glitter Jelly
There are three flavours:
-Hartley's Mixed Berry Glitter Jelly
-Hartley's Raspberry Glitter Jelly
-Hartley's Strawberry Glitter Jelly
It was really hard to decide which flavour to get but in the end I chose Raspberry because I wanted the jelly to look foodogenic with a nice sparkle.
The packaging is great with a silver and pink tone to it.
Much to my excitement, I forgot to take a picture of the jelly powder and mixed it with hot water straight away.
After mixing it, you could see fine edible sparkling particles swirling round in the mixture.
When it was ready to eat, the jelly was shimmering.
The taste was like normal raspberry jelly however the texture was too soft for my liking but it could be my fault because I just couldn't wait to try it.
I thought it would be fun to try the other two flavours as well.
They were both similar in consistency but the blue one had the prettiest sparkle.
