Cool Cups All-Natural Gelatin Free "Jello" Review

There are certain foods we all associate with summertime. Jello just happens to be one of those foods for our family! Every time we go to the grocery store, Josiah immediately points it out and wants to buy some. My problem with Jello isn't the actual taste, which is delicious, but how it's made. Gelatin is made with from the skin, tendons, ligaments and bones of animals. For me, that adds a bit of ick factor. I think about it every time I eat some, but now I know I don't have to!

Cool Cups are an all natural, gelatin free "jello" snack or dessert that is gluten free, fat free, dairy free, GMO free, high in vitamin C and contain no artificial colors or preservatives. It's perfect for kids and adults.

It's 100% vegan and with only 95 calories per serving, it's only a 2 point snack for anyone on weight watchers. Cool Cups come in three flavors at this time, Peach Mango, Black Cherry and Orange.
 
My Thoughts
 
I was worried that the kids could taste a difference in the Cool Cups, but not at all! They were just as delicious as other brands and the kids love them! Plus, I can feel good about giving them an all-natural dessert snack that's high in vitamin C and contains no preservatives! Plus it's a gluten-free snack. We watch Liam's foods since he is super-sensitive to products and some foods. Gluten-free is always preferred in our home, but we've had trouble with some of the gluten-free foods not being up to his standards. This was certainly not the case with Cool Cups.
 
I wish Cool Cups were available at more locations around our area. You can purchase them at Whole Foods for only around $3 for a 4-pack of deliciousness, which is a great deal. Another thing I love about the flavors are that they are different than the usual pre-packaged gelatin snacks. I absolutely love the Black Cherry and am pretty sure I could eat the entire pack in one go, but my kids would probably be very upset with me, to say the least. :)
