I was excited when I rec'd an email from Stephanie at gather.com saying that I had been chosen to do a review for Kraft products. Part of the review included trying Jello Sugar Free Mousse Temptations.
I rec'd my package in the mail today and went to the store right away. I had a real interest in doing these reviews because my boyfriend is hyperglycemic and can not have sugar. He does buy the Sugar Free Jello pudding on a regular basis for himself. He's never tried the Mousse Sensation.
At the store I found 3 flavors available: Chocolate Mint, Dark Chocolate Decadence, and Chocolate Indulgence. I now know there is also Caramel Creme available. I wanted to get the Chocolate Mint, but my daughter wasn't sure if my boyfriend would like that since he usually gets just chocolate. So, I chose the Chocolate Indulgence.
We all had a cup with our supper for dessert. I didn't have any complaints at all. My boyfriends first comment was "It's fluffy" to which I replied that mousse is supposed to be fluffy. I like the fluff.
I normally want nothing to do with sugar free at all. In the past I've had a problem with after taste is sugar free products. I do not notice an after taste with these.
Other information you need to know: There are just 60 calories per cup. There are 0 grams of trans fat. There is 6 grams of sugar alcohol.
I've also decided that I do need to be more health conscious. You can go to http://goodeatinggoodliving.com and sign up for tips, stories and recipes. I went in and found that I was already a member. I looked around and find the recipes to look wonderful! I look forward to trying many of them in the future.
After trying the Mousse Temptations, I would buy them in the future. I would like to try the other flavors. My boyfriend says they were good, as chocolate is always good, but he would prefer to stick with the sugar free Jello pudding his is used to. He didn't care for the fluff.
Disclaimer: I was not compensated for this review. The opinions are my own. I received a free coupon for the Sugar Free Mousse Temptations as part of a package from gather and Kraft for the purpose of this review.

Good Morning...although so far it's not.
I had to start out early running....then the mail comes and I get a card from the Kraft $20 rebate saying I didn't submit proof of purchases from 20 valid items frm the offer. It doesn't tell me what I am missing though, or how many. It says I can resubmit by Oct 2 with what I need. It gives me a toll-free number but it's not valid.
So...I'm on the phone with Nabisco and this gal can't tell me anything...or give me a valid toll free number to call. Yes, I am upset...I NEED that $20!! I didn't buy all those Oreo Cakesters, etc, Capri Sun pouches, etc because I wanted them. I bought them to get the $20 rebate.
Anyone have any idea what I would have done wrong?? The post card just states that I did not include proof of purchase of at least 20 valid Kraft products. It tells me to submit the missing/valid items by Oct. 2 to the address on the top of card, and include the card with my submission. However, how can I do that if I don't know what was missing. It gives me a toll free number to call for questions but the number tells me it's not valid.
I called a toll free number from the website of the offer. This gal is telling me that I needed to send in the UPC's. I read her what the offer form says which is Send: original, store-identified cash register receipts dates between 7/1/09 and 12/31/09 with dates and prices of all 20 items from the participating products circled. She then read that too online and told me she didn't know what to say then. All she can do it forward it with my phone number to the promotions department and they will call me within 7 to 10 business days.
If they make it the 10 business days that will put me past the Oct. 2 deadline so either way I am screwed.
I had taken all the UPC's off the products, but then read the form and didn't mail them in with the cash tape. The really sad part is, if that is what is missing, I cleaned my desk off a few days ago, throwing away the UPC's...and the trash has already been taken.
If anyone has any advice, please let me know. I really was counting on getting that $20...and as I said, I need it!!
