Mixed Selection Ant Jelly — carbohydrate feeding cups for ants
Rather not commit to a single flavour? This is the cup where the choice is ours, not yours. You get an assorted ~16 g jelly cup, an easy way to keep the menu changing and to find out which flavour your colony actually swarms hardest without buying every one separately. The jelly is sugar-based with added flavour, vitamins and humectants, holds its shape in the arena, and feeds clean carbohydrate with no mess. Originally produced as premium beetle jelly, it is fully ant-safe. Made in Europe, shipped sealed from Poland with tracked EU, UK and worldwide delivery.

Why jelly beats honey and sugar water
Liquid sugar does the job but makes a mess and endangers workers: honey traps them, an open sugar-water dish drowns them. A jelly cup supplies the same carbohydrate in a solid form the colony can gather around safely. Nothing spills when the arena moves, and a glance tells you when to replace it.
Who it’s for
The mixed selection is made for keepers who like to rotate flavours and see which their colony prefers, and for anyone who would rather not lock into one. Nearly every kept species takes jelly — Camponotus, Lasius, Formica, Pheidole, tropical ants — and harvester ants such as Messor take it for extra carbohydrate alongside their seed diet.
How to feed it
Peel the foil and set the cup in the outworld or on a feeding dish. Replace it every 3-5 days, sooner once the surface dries and hardens, and remove leftovers to keep mould and mites away. Put out several cups for a larger colony. Keep spares sealed at room temperature, and refrigerate once opened, using within a month.
A balanced diet, not carbohydrate alone
Jelly fuels adult workers and foraging but does not raise brood. Larvae need protein, so pair the cup with insect prey or a protein paste.
Pairs well with
Serve it on one of our drinking bowls or plates for a clean lift-out. Add Blanched Whole Crickets or Cricket Jam for protein and keep a water dish nearby for a complete feeding station. Once you know your colony loves jelly, the Energy Ant Jelly 5+1 Set is the value way to stock up.
FAQ
Which flavour will I get?
A random one from our range. If you need a specific flavour, the single-flavour cups — banana, honey, melon, orange, strawberry, yogurt — let you choose.
How often should I feed jelly?
A fresh cup every 3-5 days. It lasts about 4-7 days in the arena, so change it once the surface dries or hardens.
How do I store it?
Sealed cups keep for months at room temperature. Once opened, refrigerate and use within a month.
Is it really beetle jelly?
It was first made as premium beetle jelly. The composition is fully ant-safe and works just like a dedicated ant jelly.
Will harvester ants like Messor eat it?
Yes. Messor and other granivores take jelly for extra carbohydrate alongside their seeds, and almost every kept species accepts it too.
Do I still need to feed protein?
Yes. Jelly is carbohydrate only. Offer insects or a protein paste for healthy brood.
Do you ship worldwide?
Yes. Out of Poland within 24 hours, tracked EU, UK and worldwide.
