jelly babies

Soft sugary figures

Jelly babies are soft, chewy British candies shaped like plump infants, made from gelatin and coated in starch to prevent sticking.

Each color traditionally represents a different fruit flavor.

They've been manufactured since the nineteenth century and remain a nostalgic favorite: He offered me a jelly baby from the bag.
