Yummy JELL-O Pudding Review (& Giveaway Ends 10/29)

ABOUT:

Today, there are more than 158 products sold under the JELL-O brand name.  The products include JELL-O Gelatin, Pudding, and No Bakes.  JELL-O pudding is packed with cool, creamy goodness that is good plain or dressed up with toppings!

MY THOUGHTS:

Whether I am packing it as a snack for school or on-to-go, or just want to treat myself, JELL-O can really save the day.  Now I am not talking about JELL-O Gelatin (although that is yummy too) but the pudding and mousse flavors are delicious.

MOUSSE TEMPTATIONS by JELL-O

You won’t believe Mousse Temptations by JELL-O is sugar-free with its rich, creamy, flavor. With three decadent chocolate flavors, indulge in your “me time” with these 60-calorie treats.

•                Chocolate Mint Sensation

•                Chocolate Indulgence

•                Dark Chocolate Decadence

I hide these in the far back bottom drawer of my refrigerator so I always have a treat for myself.  With the different flavors available, I never get bored and love that I can have chocolate mousse anytime I want without cooking it!  The best part though is they are all sugar-free and only 60 calories, which is 65% fewer calories than average regular mousse.  I will say though that it is so hard to eat just one, that I usually sneak an extra one!

Sugar-free JELL-O Pudding Cups

You’ll love the smooth and sweet taste of sugar-free JELL-O Chocolate Pudding cups. Whether on-the-go or in your lunch sack, the individual cups make great go-to treats.

I like to keep the Sugar-Free JELL-O Pudding Cups on hand for snack time and to send off with my son for school.  He doesn’t notice a taste difference, and really I don’t either between the Sugar-Free and the Original.  Now though that I am comparing packages I noticed that the Original JELL-O Pudding Cups has almost double the carbohydrates and 19grams of sugar.

Original JELL-O Pudding Cups

Kids love the creamy mixture of Chocolate Vanilla Swirl Pudding cups. With its sweet taste and delicious dual-flavor, kids will think you’re the coolest mom on the block when they see these cups in the refrigerator.

Honestly, I never really paid attention to Sugar-Free products before and I always just bought whichever flavor JELL-O pudding cups I had a taste for but now that I have kids I think I will stick to the Sugar-Free pudding cups.  My husband though prefers the Original JELL-O pudding cups because he says he likes it sweeter, but I don’t really notice a difference in flavor and I think he just doesn’t like that the package says Sugar-Free since it signifies “healthier version!”

Overall, my family and I cannot get enough JELL-O pudding cups.  They are easy to snack on and great to grab and go.  I will say though that I wish the flavors were printed on the pudding cups because like the Mousse Temptations don’t and sometimes I am in a Dark Chocolate mood and sometimes a Mint Sensation mood.  You really can’t go wrong with the JELL-O flavors since there are so many to choose from plus the varieties for those that want sugar-free or a mousse.

BUY IT: You can find the different JELL-O varieties in the refrigerated section of your local grocery store, for me it’s by the dairy products.

WIN IT: (1) US winner will win a JELL-O Prize Pack featuring Mousse Temptations, Sugar-Free JELL-O Pudding Cups and Original JELL-O Pudding Cups.
