QiYi Jelly Cube 2×2 — transparent “jelly” 2×2 for fun, gifts and first solves

QiYi Jelly Cube 2×2 is a colourful, unusual 2×2 made from translucent “jelly” plastic in pastel shades. It looks like a candy or toy: soft colours, light shining through the pieces, yet it’s still a fully functional puzzle cube.

This model is not made for breaking records, but for fun and looks: light turning, pleasant in-hand feel and a very cute design — perfect for kids, gifts and anyone who enjoys unique-looking cubes.
