Angel Delight

Advantages: Makes anyone feel special
Disadvantages: None

...or jelly day, it was Angel Delight day. (Listen carefully and you'll hear the evangelical hum). I hope that there aren't many of you out there to have never tried, or worse still heard of this Queen of desserts but for those of you who haven't, let me indulge you. Developed in the days of yore, when dessert was either rice or sponge based the head chef honchos of Birds invented a magical powder. All one had to do to transform said angel dust into ...
...let out a cheer, for Angel Delight can be made with full fat, semi, skimmed, or even soya milk. For those calorie counters among you get a pen, for every individual serving made with semi skimmed milk there is 112 kcal and 4.2g of fat (3.6g of which saturates). So what does it taste like, I'd say heaven on a spoon but some may question the descriptive relevance of this statement. So firstly the texture - after whisking up the Angel Delight it must ...

...it, a packet of Strawberry Angel Delight, and before you ask, it was still in date. So to cut a short story even shorter, I rediscovered a deep passion for Angel Delight and not only that of the strawberry variety. Varieties ------------- Original released back in the heady days of 1967, Angel Delight was released upon the dessert industry with its promise of "the taste of Strawberries and cream". Well it's moved on since then and just looking ...
...Packaging & Contents ------------------------------- Angel Delight comes in a 67g foil packet, why 67g, I do not know, one of the great unsolved mysteries of the world. Anyway each packet is colour coded to the flavour, so in the case of the Strawberry one I am reviewing; the packet is pink and red, the chocolate one is brown, etc etc. On the back of the packet is an easy to follow guide as to how to make it, along with ideas for making other desserts ...

Disadvantages: Bad For You

...the packet. The catchphrase of Angel Delight which is stated on the packet is "Instant desert for little angels". The fact that the desert is named after angels , makes you think that maybe by eating this , it isn't that bad after all. The packet also included three serving suggestions along with pictures. One suggestion is to top with fruit such as strawberries. I take hold of the packet and read the instructions. This will do I said to myself ...
...done. 2) Add the Angel Delight and whisk until light and creamy. I poured the contents into the jug. The contents consist of a 'brown/orange' powder. I wondered whether this powder mixed with the milk would actually turn out the way the pictures on the packet suggest. I began to whish until the powder and milk became one mixture. The desert was 'light and creamy' as the instruction said it should be and so I stopped whisking and continued on to ... Read review

Advantages: Tastes great, easy to make
Disadvantages: Not all flavours are sugar free

...of my favourite desserts, namely Angel Delight. So I am about to rectify this glaring omission on my part! Firstly I’ll say that Angel Delight comes in the original variety and a sugar free variety, the latter of which is ideal in our house as mom and I are both diabetic. The flavours available in the standard version are Strawberry, Chocolate, Vanilla, Butterscotch, Banana, Popcorn and Candy Floss, but sadly the sugar free ones only come in Strawberry, ...
...one. So what is Angel Delight then? It is a dessert that comes in powder form contained in sachets of around 50g. The colour of the sachet usually corresponds with the flavour of the Angel Delight – the strawberry one comes in a pink packet, the chocolate one in a brown packet and so on. So then what do you do with it? Well that’s dead easy! You put half a pint of milk in a bowl – you can use skimmed, semi skimmed or full cream milk – add the ... Read review

Disadvantages: none

...little help from Beckah (7). Angel delight is a great favourite in our house next to ice cream, because it takes about five minutes to actually make the pudding, as long as you’ve got a few minutes (15) spare to let it thicken. There is no need to actually chill the pudding if you don’t want to which is quite surprising actually because I was brought up having to put these in the fridge for 10 minutes or so before we were allowed to eat ...
...with glasses on made from angel delight. This is to portray that the dessert is made for little angels (Not in my house it isn’t). ^^^^NUTRITIONAL INFO^^^^ - 455cals per 100g It’s not too fattening when you consider that a 67g packet will serve three to four people as an average sized dessert. I’m not going to list all the ingredients here, but again you probably don’t want to know or haven’t heard of half of them. ... Read review
