Now just a little, disappointing fruit pastel.
Review from Rowntrees
There I was, sat in my awning whilst camping just after I learnt of the death of the Rolling Stones drummer, Charlie Watts. Oh, what a sad sad day I thought. But wait, I know, I'll have some Jelly Tots that I brought all the way here, to make me feel better. Ah, those tiny little juicy bites. On opening, the first thing I thought is, "these aren't Jelly Tots, Jelly Chunks more like". The next disappointment, was the bite. Where had it gone? I checked the date on the pack in case they were out of date, but no, they were fine. The final kick in the Doo Dahs came with the taste. Now, I tried the "new" Fruit Pastels recently and was disappointed but thought, "OK, I can live with that, they are still tasty and let's throw a bone to the Vegans, as it were, and give them the odd Pastel. "At last Rowntrees won't mess with a mans Tots", I so very wrongly thought. In summary, I was only slightly more grief stricken with the death of Charlie Watts, than I was when forcing down your new Jelly Chunks. Please bring my Tots back, and for that matter, where are my all time favourite Tutti Fruttis?
Not the same
So gutted this is another victim of changing the old classic sweets to new weird texture nasties. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it!!
So many memories of my childhood!

Hello! We are avoid lovers of these, just such a shame you guys change the sweets! They used to stick between the teeth and be rich I'm flavour with enough suger left over in the package to make a cuppa! It's what made them so great! Wish they would revert back to the old product!
Yum

GOOD FOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
More gummy than jelly
Haven't bought these for years but got them as a bit of a nostalgic treat. Was surprised that, while still technically jellies, their appearance and texture more closely resembled mini American hard gums than the little sugar coated jelly drops I remember. I still enjoyed them but they weren't what I was expecting.
A poor change to an amazing sweet
Review from Rowntrees
I unknowingly purchased the new style of jelly tots yesterday after not having had them for a while, I always loved the taste, shape, and texture of them. Although the recipe is still the same according to rowntree's, they just don't taste as good. The bigger shape makes them more gummy/chewy rather than squishy, and the powder like sugar on them instead of granulated really makes the texture less appealing. I don't think this was a necessary or good change, they were already a perfect sweet.
Taste has changed so much
Review from Rowntrees
My fave sweet has changed that much they taste cheap, softer and nothing like jelly tots even the shape has changed. For sweets I have been eating for 30 years, I am so disappointed by the change. It has taken away the jelly tots taste and why I loved them so much
