Waste Your Time With Me

I decided to make coffee jelly yesterday since I had available ingredients on hand. I settled with Angel Kremdensada sweetened thick creamer because everyone was too lazy to go buy the tried and tested Alaska condensed milk (not condensada). Based on the TV ad, the idea of the Kremdensada is combined cream and condensed milk. It is ideally convenient and economical, and hopefully tasteful. I have tasted the condensed milk of the same brand and it's okay. Might as well give it a try, right?

I don't like my desserts as sweet as most people prefer. You see, for the rare times that I drink soda, I would actually add cold water first or would let most of the ice melt. So if the creamer was a bit lacking on the sweet side, that would be an okay for me. When my mom first tasted our finished product and said it lacked sweetness, I thought I hit the jackpot.

But boy, was I disappointed. It was bland and almost tasteless that I truly wanted to add sugar in it. Its texture was even suspiciously runny, despite the best before date on the can indicating it was still fresh. Maybe it came from a bad batch, well I hope so. The combined cream-condensed milk is too good a concept to pass.
