Gelée calls attention to its Raspberry with Smoked Sea Salt product, which is part of the brand's line of gelatin-based confections. These decadent treats are formulated with allulose, whole raspberry powder, beef gelatin from grass-fed, pasture-raised sources, apple cider vinegar, smoked sea salt, and stevia. They offer a nostalgic, sensory narrative evoking French countryside berry-picking and urban nightlife.
Gelée's Raspberry with Smoked Sea Salt delivers a complex flavor. The inclusion of smoked sea salt adds a savory counterpoint to the bright raspberry flavor. It also delivers electrolytes, minerals, and deep hydration. Allulose— a low-glycemic sweetener derived from figs — helps with blood sugar control. Gelatin, on the other hand, is rich with collagen and high in protein to support hair, skin, and nails, while Guava boasts Vitamin C and helps with lipid and blood sugar balancing.
