// July 29th, 2008 // No Comments » // Candy Video Review, Sour Candy

Hey! Its that time again for Candy Tuesdays! Today, I have a Smart Choice candy product that does NOT contain any sugar and great for diabetics.  I love the flavor GWEEN APPLE candy spray, so check out the candy video review!

As I stated in my video you can purchase smart choice candy from the Dollar Tree as well as 7-Eleven and Ebay. I do remember seeing Costco hold a large pack as well a few weeks back. The company that produces these fun candies do have a website located at TooTarts.com and they have all sorts of fun candy like:

• Sour Ups
• Dream Chews
• Spray Candy (Sour Blast & Super Sweet)
  
• Sour Goo
• Sour Powder Pods

Jelly Bellys Overseas!

// July 26th, 2008 // No Comments » // Candy News

The time has come, Jelly Belly‘s are bigger than ever as the demand for Jelly Belly overseas is growing. The company has planned to open a new candy plant in Rayong, Thailand! Currently, there are over 43 overseas countries who are in love with the small jelly beans!

It’s exciting because I’ve lived overseas for almost 10 years and many times I just miss a lot of US candies. I’m happy to see it expand and the Jelly Belly Corp has grown 25% due to more exportation throughout the world. So the next time you’re on vacation abroad, you are likely to see them at checkout!

Frunas Fruit Chews

// July 22nd, 2008 // No Comments » // Candy Video Review

Welcome Back to Candy Tuesdays

Its been a while since I’ve done a video blog, well I was using my friends camera while in Spain and up until last week I purchased a Sony GC1 Video Cam. My old sony camera had video but no sound.. AACK.. But now I’m back in action to give you yet another candy review from around the world. Frunas Fruit Chews from South America!

Although I purchased it in Spain from a Latino Produce Store just to find something new! Check out the video..

I recommend you trying the Fruna Fruit chews, I would compare them to Starburst but they are WAY much better! I like the mixed flavors and especially the Lemon Tangerine!

The company Frunas does have a website although in Spanish: http://www.frunas.com

In the video I mentioned that I wasn’t sure if you could buy them here but obviously they are popular here in the states. They can be purchased at Amazon, Ebay (Stores) and others but you’ll find a variety of stores at Amazon.

Last time I check a pack of 48 were just $2.47 a box so its worth ordering if anything to see for yourself!

Fizzy Sour Candy Ahoj-Brause

// July 19th, 2008 // 2 Comments » // International Candy, Sour Candy

So since I was away in Europe I’ve gotten back and had to settle down a little bit. I was able to purchase some different international candy along the way. This candy from Germany caught my eye because its a fizzy sour candy. My favorite type of candy is sour!

I picked up a small 2,1oz bag just to test of Aloj-Brause candy named Brause-Stäbchen.

When I first popped a piece into my mouth I found that it took awhile for it to actually FIZZ. I wait and waited until I just bit into it. Then after there was a little fizz and actually very little sourness with the Cherry flavor. It was quite disappointing as I had high hopes for something to tickle my mouth. The flavors are distinctive (Tropic is the most sour) so that’s a plus I would opt for more fizz. But its soft to chew and easy to eat.

Flavors: Cherry, Orange, Lemon and Tropic.

The manufacturer is Frigeo

Below is a photo of a large box of Brause-Stäbchen.

Stealing Candy..

// July 18th, 2008 // No Comments » // Candy News

Honestly, this is weird but a man tried to buy candy bars with a fake $100 bill. I guess he wanted to start off small to see if the money would pass through as he purchased it from Wal-Mart.

During an interview at the sheriff’s office, Neal reportedly said he had gotten the bill about an hour earlier at Baskin-Robbins from a man, known only by a nickname, that owed him the money.

I don’t know if its true but its WEIRD. Read more about the news here
