QUESTION:
What makes Jelly Belly beans different from other jelly beans?
ANSWER:
Most jelly beans are made with a non-flavoured centre and the coating and colour added later in the manufacturing process. Jelly Belly “real” flavours are in the jelly bean centre as well as the shell making them taste so much better. The flavour is all the way through the bean. They also have the Jelly Belly name on every bean.
