 Jelly Belly Gorp

 
    Online and in specialty stores you'll find Jelly Belly jellybeans mixed or in one color by the bag. It’s fun to put together a custom mix in your team colors, or theme colors for a bridal shower, or pink and blue for a baby shower, red for Valentine's Day, brown and orange for the Harvest Festival.
    You can also get wild with “recipes” by combining flavors. Here’s just one idea.

 

Go green for St. Patrick's Day? The Packers? Earth Day?
