Chupa Chups Sugarfree Lollipops

// December 16th, 2008 // 1 Comment » // Candy Video Review, International Candy

Candy Tuesdays is back yet again! Although, I know its the holiday’s and I should review Christmas candy, I’ve decided because of my intake of less sugar to review a sugar-free candy! Enjoy

Chupa Chups are great lollipops in general and if you have to eat sugar free candy because of your health or diet than they aren’t too bad. But because I love sugar so much I did not taste much. It had the flavor almost of the Halls Citric flavor but not as strong. The best thing about the candy is the cigarette shaped box!

These are hard to find in the USA but some online shops make it available. Its a neat way to distribute the mini lollipops! Chupa Chups are from and made in Spain! Check out their website and by the way, they are celebrating 50 years of the candy! WOW!!

Gmail Candy Theme

// December 4th, 2008 // 1 Comment » // Candy Addiction, Candy News

If you’re a GMAIL user then you’ve probably been properly introduced to the new BETA Gmail Themes! There about 30 new themes at moment to go with email account depending on your feeling. Well of course once I saw the Candy Theme, I selected it and everytime I sign it its so joyful and bright. Before Gmail was fine but the basic colors were boring. Here is screenshot taken from my account.

If you don’t have a Gmail or Google account and you’re interested in a candy theme go here to sign up. Its free and there are many other applications that make it my preference in personal email.

Aakkoset Fruit Candy

// December 2nd, 2008 // No Comments » // Finnish Candy, Gummy, International Candy

Hey guys! Another edition of Candy Tuesdays with candy sent in from Finland. Enjoy the review!

The Aakkoset (Alphabet) Fruit gummies were really tasty and soft. Although the flavors were not that distinctive, it was enjoyable. The bag that I reviewed is actually a Super Mix of 315 grams and the price is different than stated on the video. The price is 3.50 euros which converts to almost $4.00.

The company is Leaf and the candy is made in Finland. If you visit the company website you will see a list of those candies. However, to purchase a bag for yourself there is a Finnish company which will send all types of candy and other goods from Finland at fairly good prices: Suomi Kauppa

I tried to spell out “Love Candy” but there weren’t any “D’s” in the bag. Unless I ate them first! So I managed to spell out “Love Sweets”!

So if you managed to buy them, let me know what you think!
