Lunchbox snack Fruitypot is delighted to welcome the Vimto Jelly range into its brand family.
The famous mixed fruit drink brand has licensed a range of four jelly products. Vimto Original and No Added Sugar are made using the legendary secret Vimto flavour. Joined by Cherry and Strawberry, in line with Vimto’s expanded range of flavours, the products were listed in ADSA from June 17th.
The Vimto Jelly range will complement Fruitypot’s own branded fruit in juice and fruit in jelly products. Like Fruitypot, Vimto Jelly comes with a foldable spoon which makes it an ideal snack on the go.
Fruitypot was developed to provide a tasty and healthy alternative to sweets, chocolate and crisps. Available in fruit in juice and jelly, they contain no artificial sweeteners and are an easy way to achieve your 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day. Fruitypots are available in four fruit in juice flavours: Pineapple, Peach & Pear, Tropical Fruit and Mandarin, and three fruity in jelly varieties: Mandarin, Peach and Tropical Fruit flavours.
