Since being diagnosed as diabetic, real wine gums are one of the things I miss most. Now I keep a packet in the freezer and when the craving is really bad I allow myself one or two. They are rock hard so it takes ages to eat them.

Careful how much sugar free jelly you eat at once though. I started making my own jelly sweets but soon found out they can have nasty side effects !
