Review: Jell-o Boston Cream Pie Pudding

  Descrption: Jell-o Sugar Free, 60 Calories, New Flavor, Boston Cream Pie
  
  
  

I am a HUGE fan of Boston Cream Pie.  I love custard, chocolate, and cake- what's not to love??  Now, I am not that easily duped- I realize that this Jell-o cup is not going to Really taste like a slice of Boston Cream Pie.  That being said, I have enjoyed chocolate and vanilla sugar-free Jell-o puddings before, so I figured I'd give this new flavor a try.

This new flavor is a big "win" in my book for the Jell-o brand.  It's fantastic!  That is, if you're already used to the somewhat artificial-tasting flavors of sugar-free Jell-o pudding.  I like that there's two levels of flavor so you can mix it all up yourself, eat one layer at a time, or do what I do and fit both layers onto each spoonful, haha.  The vanilla portion does taste a little different than regular vanilla- I imagine they did something to make it more custard-y to match the Boston Cream Pie influence.

Final verdict?  I wouldn't eat this ALL the time, but I am glad I got it and wouldn't hesitate to buy another pack again.  If you are a fan of sweets but need just a little something to curb your sweet tooth, this would be a great option.  I'm not sure how long Jell-o's planning on keeping this around- I imagine it would depend on the popularity/demand.  I for one hope it sticks around!
