<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I once e-mailed Jelly Belly about making an Advil flavored jelly bean.<\/p>\n
You know that sugary coating the orange Advils have for three seconds? That. <\/p>\n
Needless to say, they never got back to me. Apparently dirt and dog food are acceptable flavors, but nooooo<\/em>, not Advil.<\/p>\n I guess I just figured the innovators over at Jelly Belly might be open to some outside ideas. Then again, I found out they were hard at work mimicking Krispy Kreme donuts and I immediately let it slide.<\/p>\n Krispy Kreme is a treat. I don\u2019t have one nearby so I envy anyone who can stop in and pick up a dozen whenever they want. I usually have to wait until I hop a train to NYC to get my fix, but they\u2019ve never let me down. Now you\u2019re telling me they\u2019re teaming up with \u201cTHE original gourmet jelly bean?\u201d I\u2019m in.<\/p>\n Here are my quick reviews of the five flavors included in the Jelly Belly-Krispy Kreme mix:<\/p>\n Cinnamon Apple Filled<\/strong> \u2013 Beige with brown \u2013 These tasted like apple pie. The taste starts as a normal sweet apple Jelly Belly, but is soon met with a dulling cinnamon flavor.<\/p>\n Strawberry Iced<\/strong> \u2013 Pink with a little sheen \u2013 These tasted just like strawberry cake icing. Unlike a normal strawberry flavor, it\u2019s not very acidic or fruity.<\/p>\n Glazed Blueberry Cake<\/strong> \u2013 Basically a darker shade of the Cinnamon Apple \u2013 These tasted like a complex blueberry muffin. I got “baked goods” in this more than the others. They were definitely the \u201cdonutiest,\u201d which is absolutely a word. Don\u2019t bother looking it up.<\/p>\n Chocolate Iced with Sprinkles<\/strong> \u2013 Brown with a few sprinkle dots \u2013 These tasted like what I recall Chocolate Pudding Jelly Belly beans tasting like. I might actually say they were \u201cFudgsicle\u201d flavored.<\/p>\n And now, it\u2019s time for the Krispy Kreme staple. The bean you\u2019ve all been waiting for:<\/p>\n Original Glazed<\/strong> \u2013 Color and sheen match the donut \u2013 These were really disappointing. Wow. I just didn\u2019t get much here. I realize glaze is essentially just sugar, but that\u2019s all I tasted – sugar. Maybe they slipped some Advil beans in for me instead? I didn\u2019t really find them distinctly Krispy Kreme donut. I wanted to be immediately reminded of a hot conveyer belt glazed, but I got more of a toasted marshmallow vibe. I feel like I\u2019m wrong, but I gotta trust my buds. What did I miss? <\/p>\n My Ranking:<\/strong><\/p>\n Glazed Blueberry Cake <\/p>\n Strawberry Iced<\/p>\n Chocolate Iced with Sprinkles<\/p>\n Cinnamon Apple Filled<\/p>\n Original Glazed<\/p>\n I can\u2019t believe it.<\/p>\n Despite my clamoring for the sugary Advil, this mix got cloying in time. I appreciate the larger Jelly Belly variety boxes because you can counter flavors like this with say a citrusy fruit flavor. You need that balance if you wanna consume mass beanage – which is also absolutely a word.<\/p>\n As far as the \u201cdonut\u201d of it all, I popped all five at once and found that brought a lot of the pastry effect out.<\/p>\n You might wanna wait to see if these break into the bigger mixes before dropping $5 on this box.<\/p>\n (Nutrition Facts – 27 Beans \u2013 110 calories, 0 grams of fat, 20 milligrams of sodium, 27 grams of carbohydrates, 0 grams of fiber, 20 grams of sugar (+20g added sugars), and 0 grams of protein.)<\/small><\/p>\n Purchased Price:<\/b> $5.00 I once e-mailed Jelly Belly about making an Advil flavored jelly bean.

\nPros:<\/b> Some cool new flavors to add to the roster. Blueberry was really good. Unless they say \u201cBertie Bott\u2019s,\u201d Jelly Belly never really disappoints. Delicious Advil coating.
\nCons:<\/b> The baffling Glazed flavor making me question my taste buds. Lack of fresh glazed donut flavor. I prefer a Jelly Belly mix with a little more variety. No Krispy Kreme near my house. A little pricy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
