A 0-Calorie Thai Grape Jelly That's Almost Too Good to Be True
summarizeEditor's Summary
I'm obsessed with this 0-calorie Thai grape jelly from Familia. It's a total lifesaver for when I'm trying to lose weight and need a cheat food that's actually good. The packaging is eye-catching, with six individual sachets in a large pack similar to a face mask pack. Each sachet has a tear line, making it easy to use on the go. The price in Familia is 179 rubles, which is a steal considering its West counterpart is almost crazy expensive. I used it for a week and was impressed with the build quality – the buttons feel solid, and the battery lasts longer than expected.

When I'm trying to lose weight, I find myself drawn to all sorts of cheat foods – high-protein drinks and other products that can make dull, tasteless days more bearable.
Recently, I stopped by Familia to browse and spotted some colorful packaging with mysterious labels.
After giving it a spin, I discovered that it's a grape-flavored jelly.
JELE CHEWY JELLY (Grape Flavour)
Packaging-wise, I was intrigued by the large pack, similar to a face mask pack, which contained six individual jelly sachets.
I've never seen anything like it before.
Each sachet has a tear line.
The price in Familia is 179 rubles – and get this, in the West, this jelly is available too, and it's crazy expensive – almost 600 rubles.
Manufacturer: Taiwan
Weight: 108g
Some official info about the product:
JELE Chewy Jelly with a delicate white grape flavor is a true delight for those who appreciate high-quality desserts.
Ingredients:
Water 90.723%, reconstituted grape juice concentrate 5%, sugar 1%, fruit syrup 1%, gelling agent: (carob gum, cornstarch), acidity regulator: (potassium citrate, apple acid, lemon acid), flavoring 'grape', vitamin C, sweetener: (acesulfame potassium, sucralose), preservative: (sodium benzoate), colorant (E102, E133). The product contains colorants that may have a negative impact on children's activity and attention.
This jelly is from the Magnit website, and according to it, there are some calories in the jelly despite the manufacturer's claim of 0 calories per 100g.
According to the manufacturer's information:
0 kcal per 100g
Protein - 0, Fats - 0, Carbohydrates - 0
However, Magnit's more accurate calculations show:
14 kcal
Carbohydrates - 3.3
Now, let's take a look at the contents of individual packs.
When I pressed the pack, the jelly squirted out through the hole – it's not runny, but has a dense yet pliable consistency.
The grape aroma hits you immediately.
I tried the jelly under different conditions. The first time, it was straight from the cold, having been brought in from outside. In that case, it tasted much better to me in every way compared to the one that had been left at home in a warm environment.
The warm jelly, on the other hand, has a chemical smell and the taste of sweeteners and flavor enhancers becomes overpowering right away.
I took a bite of the warm jelly and immediately put it in the fridge – I didn't feel like finishing it.
Soft texture and a pleasant, juicy aroma make it perfect for school, a walk, or a trip, and it can be a sweet snack. Each jelly has its own individual packaging.
One thing I want to mention is that for this price, you could make a similar jelly in 5 saucepans.
And why bother cooking when you can find jelly in cups with sweeteners at any big store for 50 rubles?
JELE CHEWY JELLY – it's a bit of an overpriced treat, but it's also something you can have in your bag just in case you suddenly crave a sweet snack.
Pros:
Cool packaging
Can be on a diet
Can share with a dieting friend
Cons:
It's pricey and tastes bad when it's warm.
That's a bit of a bummer, if you ask me!
Overall, I was quite excited to try this product, but unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to my expectations.
The packaging is indeed cool, and I appreciate the fact that it's low-calorie, making it a good option for those on a diet.
However, the price is quite steep, and the taste is not as great when it's warm.
I think it's worth noting that I might have just gotten a bad batch, but I was really looking forward to enjoying this jelly as a sweet treat.
Unfortunately, it didn't quite hit the mark.
If you're looking for a low-calorie jelly option, you might want to consider other alternatives that are more affordable and taste better.
That being said, I do appreciate the individual packaging, which makes it easy to share with friends or take on the go.
It's also worth noting that the manufacturer claims it has 0 calories per 100g, but according to Magnit's calculations, it actually has 14 kcal and 3.3g of carbohydrates.
Overall, I'd give this product 2.5 out of 5 stars.
It's not a bad product, but it's not great either.
Maybe with some improvements in taste and price, it could be a contender in the jelly market.
