English blokes make royalty out of Jell-O
Sam Bompas and Harry Parr, who are really more architectural designers than dessert lovers, are single-handedly changing the way we think of Jell-O. In the U.K., they call it ‘jelly’, so the name of the business started by these gourmet foodies, as fitting as it sounds, is The Jellymongers.
And, they’re doing just that, mongering around the UK throwing parties with their creations. The public can’t seem to get enough. From Buckingham Palace to continental United States, there isn’t a shape that doesn’t look better when chilled with Jell-O. Turntyle News sat down with Sam Bompas of Bompas and Parr to find out just how many shapes they intend to fit on their plate.

HAVE YOUR SAY
Whoever said ‘good things come in small packages’ was probably right in many respects. But when comparing the satisfaction of a single Gummi Bear, compared to treating yourself to an Astro from Vat19; the only decision you need to make is how you’re going to eat it. Knife and fork, anyone?
