I used to buy Asda Jelly Cherries quite often when I used to live near a large Asda. After I moved house, I forgot about these sweets until we decided to try out the Asda home delivery shopping service recently. I ordered a few packs of these to enlighten Mr Norton who had never tried them and to see if they were still as lush as I remembered. These are jelly sweets that do not come rolled in fizz. They come in a 95g bag for 35p each bag or 3 for £1. The "any 3 for £1" promotional offer is actually printed on the bags so this is a long term Asda offer. I did take advantage of this as extra sweets for your money is only a good thing (my dentist will ...  Read the complete review

A few months back I developed a bit of a sweet tooth and chocolate was becoming a major weakness. As my appetite is slowly returning I am having the odd craving for something sweet. However I now prefer sweets as opposed to chocolate, therefore have been stocking up in the confectionary aisles in Asda on sweets. One of my current favourites are Asda Jelly Cherries, jelly sweets with a cherry flavour. ***Packaging*** Asda Jelly Cherries come in a green plastic bag. On the front of the bag Jelly Cherries is written in red and green font. The packaging is very similar to other sweets from the Asda confectionary range. However the ...  Read the complete review

Asda is somewhere I like to do my special shopping, where I stock up on some bargains and usually come home with lots of goodies. I've bought a few different types of their own-brand labels and have been pleased with them as, generally speaking, they produce good quality items at reasonable prices. Being the sweet-aholic I am, Jelly Cherries made their way into my shopping trolley. I can't say they're the best jelly sweets, but they're not bad for the price in terms of their flavour and amount per pack. As these are produced by Asda they can only be found in Asda stores, and are located in the chocolate & sweetie section. They are sold in a 100g lime green ...  Read the complete review

I have great issue with these cherry gummies. There aren't enough in a packet and I can consume a packet at an unhealthy rate. Possibly a pro and con in terms of my health - pro because it means I have to administer some self-restraint and a con because I don't want self-restraint - I WANT CHERRIES! --Packaging-- Lime green, 36p and part of the 3 for £1 offer, the writing is in a bubble font (dark green and red) and said to be 'free from artificial colours and flavouring'. They have a little clean cloud shaped window on the front so you can see the gummies. There aren't very many in there but they're looking at me and I want ...  Read the complete review

Back with Asda's children's sweets after my short sabbatical to Tesco's sweets, a result of being miles away from an Asda at the time of a sugar craving, I am now back in my comfort zone and ready to spread the word about Asda's cheap and cheery sweets. Asda's children's sweets cost 36p a bag but can be bought on offer 3 bags for £1, which is a definite bargain, as so far all the sweets I have tried have been delicious. Jelly Cherries come in a 100g lime green packet with the words jelly cherries in dark green and red. The design itself is quite simple and not the most imaginative in the world but it is eye-catching. The front of the packet also ...  Read the complete review
