The Aeroplane Jelly brand was acquired from Traders in 1994 and over the years has added varieties such as a low-calorie jelly to help diabetics in 1953, the creation of Australian native fruit flavours like lilly pilly, quandong and midjinberry for the 1988 Bicentennial celebrations, the production of ready-to-eat jelly packs in 2006, and the release of ‘glitter-jelly’ this year.

24 million packets of Aeroplane Jelly are sold each year.
