My 4 year old daughter has suddenly developed a passion for jelly, so on a recent visit to Tesco I decided to give their Value Strawberry jelly a try, as it was only 6p a pack. Admittedly, my expectations weren't high - I mean for 6 pence, what would you expect?! However, I was very pleasantly surprised. The product comes in a 128g pack, approx 4 inches long, 3 wide and 1 inch deep. The jelly comes packaged in a clear cellophane wrapper, with the Tesco value logo on the front and the nutritional infomation. When made up according to the intructions, one quarter of a jelly has 90 calories, 18g of sugar and just a trace of fat. ...  Read the complete review

This jelly gets off to a bad start straight away with its use of the word "flavour". Yes, really: one of the lesser known aspects of the food labelling rules is that there is a significant difference between the word "flavoured", which means that the product must actually contain some of the substance it defines, and the word "flavour", which simply means that it might perhaps bear some vague resemblance to its taste. That's why you can have smoky bacon flavour crisps that are suitable for vegetarians. Still, I suppose one ought not to be too harsh on a product that costs a mere 7p. Actually when I saw that I thought at first that ...  Read the complete review

A lifeless slab of Strawberry table jelly, Golly gosh! that's a jolly spiffing subject for an enthralling review isn't it? - don't laugh; I've got to try and make it a bit interesting haven't I... Anyway, back to the subject in question, Tesco's, value range, Strawberry flavour jelly, weighing in at 4.1/2oz, (128g if you must). You can only become the proud owner of a slab of this highly desirable product, by handing over the highly exorbitant sum of 7p to your local Tesco's store. I kid you not, 7 PENCE, they might as well stick it in a bin by the door and say help yourself, have one on us. How do they make any money on this sort of thing???? Or should ...  Read the complete review

I am on a low budget now and try to make cut backs whenever I can to save more money, I have always used lower brands from supermarkets but I never used to buy products that I thought would not be nice until last year and I had to look more closely at the things I could save on and just buy the other products or items I thought needed to be bought at a higher price, and so I decided to try this jelly and see if it worked for me and my family. This jelly is from the Value range from Tesco, it is a excellent value for only 7p per 128g packet which is absolutley a brilliant price. It is in a transparent thin plastic wrapper that can be opened from both side, it ...  Read the complete review

I have always been a big fan of jelly and even more so when I discovered how to make alcoholic versions! I saw the Tesco Value Jelly for a very pocket attractive 7p, seven pence I say....I had to try it! Each packet has 12 little cubes of jelly, the same as you would get with most jellies out there, so I must emphasise that seven pence is really good value! This strawberry was easy to prepare and as it come in 12 cubes, dissolving them is made quite easy. Add hot water and then dissolved add cold water and then place into a container and then into the fridge to set. Its that simple. I found the easiness to prepare, exactly the same as any other ...  Read the complete review
