Another
popular product is the Jelly
Bean Machine
which is quite possibly one of the coolest things
we've ever seen.The Jelly Bean Machine is the real
McCoy - a proper, substantial Jelly Bean dispenser
that you see out and about on the street. It
measures a whopping 39cm x 19cm (15.5'' x 7.5''),
and we think it's the best thing since sliced
bread.
One personal
favourite of ours and a flavour we can highly
recommend is Caribbean
Coconut Gourmet Jelly
Beans.
They are delicious coconut flavour juicy jelly
beans from The Jelly Bean Factory. Not only do they
taste fabulous but they are also gelatine-free. A
Quarter Of sell them in 125 gram bags (that's an
old 1/4 pound plus an extra 10%) so you can either
just enjoy one flavour or you can buy a couple of
bags and make your own customised selection of your
favourite flavours.
A Bit About
Jelly Beans
Jelly beans are a
type of confectionery that comes in many different
(primarily fruit) flavours. They are small (the
size of a red kidney bean or smaller) and usually
have a hard candy shell and gummy
interior.
The interior
jelly of Jelly Beans traces its origin back
hundreds of years to a candy called Turkish
Delight, while the shell is essentially the same as
that developed in the late 19th century for Jordan
Almond candies. The two were brought together
around the beginning of the 20th century. It was
not until 1930 or so that jelly beans became an
Easter candy, presumably from their resemblance to
eggs.
The ingredients
that give each bean its character are also
relatively small in proportion and may vary
depending on the flavor. These include natural and
artificial flavors and colors, and, depending on
the bean flavor, may include chocolate, coconut,
fruit puree or juice, peanuts, vanilla, oils,
cream, or freeze-dried egg, milk, or fruit
powders.
Most jelly beans
are sold as an assortment of about eight more or
less standard fruit flavors. Assortments of
"spiced" jellybeans and gumdrops are also
available, which include a similar number of spice
and mint flavors. The colors of jelly beans are
also more or less standardized, and a fairly
typical scheme is shown in the table to the right.
Even horseradish, carrot and tomato variants
exist.
