  Nutritional values ​​and Health Comment on the recipe

  Orange jellies are fruit candies. Unlike common industrial jellies, those proposed by Alice can be defined as totally free of artificial colors and flavors, since the only food additive is isinglass with a thickening function. Remember that jellies are highly sugary foods which, if used with frequency and in excessive quantities, they can harm or aggravate dental health and glycemic homeostasis.
