Sour Twizzlers – Yummmm

// July 7th, 2010 // No Comments » // Candy Video Review, Licorice Candy

These were awesome!! Much better than anticipated — Fresh, Juicy and of course SWEEET! Check out the review!

I rushed to eat the rest after the video because they were so yummy!! You can buy these anywhere. These Twizzlers Sour Filled remind of the licorice that I’ve eaten throughout Europe. But the difference is quite evident because the fill is so fresh and soft.

Here is a better image below:

Right now there is only one flavor: Citrus Punch. If more become available I will be reviewing them. The Twizzlers Filled Twist  are available at Amazon.com and of course Wal-Mart plus local pharmacies. Checkout the Twizzler website for more information and nutritional value!

Largest Licorice Candy

Largest Licorice Candy

I visited a Spring Fair/Carnival in Barcelona and as you can see I think its the largest Licorice Filled Straw Candy in the World! I was actually too afraid to even buy it..It was enormous!

I can see myself now, sitting at the dinner table with the knife and fork chopping away!

GrapeVines Purple Grape Twists!

If you have tried the RedVines than I’m pretty sure that you will enjoy the GrapeVines! Check out Candy Tuesdays!

I actually prefer the Vines over Twizzlers, mostly because I found them to be a little bit softer and easier to eat than Twizzlers. Although, I must say, I can’t wait to try the Sour Twizzlers!!

Currently you can purchase the RedVines at the following local stores, so I’m sure will follow for the GrapeVines:

  • Walmart
  • Target
  • Walgreens
  • CVS
  • Kroger

Online they can be purchased at CandyCabinet.com & Amazon.com

Thanks to the American Licorice Company for the GrapeVines!!

Jelly Belly Easter Eggs

// February 28th, 2010 // No Comments » // Easter Candy, Licorice Candy

Easter is right around the corner and for me it has always been one of the most memorable candy holidays for me! I’ll review Jelly Belly Easter Eggs!

It is pretty clear that children love Jelly Belly Bean because of its’ fruity flavor and the fact that it’s jelly. Now they can enjoy it under the shape of an Easter Egg as well. And yes, the Jelly Belly Easter Eggs will come in all 50+ flavors.

I actually appreciate a candy factory that produces special treats for special occasions, such as Easter. I was never disappointed at Easter, as a small child, I loved the specially designed flavors and shapes of the traditional chocolate bunny.  It is so beautiful how the chocolate is set in the shape of a bunny and wrapped it in a colorful package. Although, as you know I’m not a big chocolate fan but Easter is the time where I do break out a little and try things! But mostly I enjoy jelly beans and flavored Jelly Belly’s.

Jelly Belly is available in 50 different flavors, as mentioned above, and all of them are naturally obtained. From French vanilla or Honey Bean to Licorice or Dr. Pepper, you can choose the one that you enjoy the most, or if you are tasting these delights for the first time, just take all of them and make a party out it.

The Jelly Belly Easter Eggs will have the same flavors but will also come with some new rookie flavors, specially designed for Easter. If the company realizes that people really enjoy a specific flavor, they will surely add it to the 50 flavor formation, making it 51, 52 or even more.  I would buy several pounds of Jelly Belly from all flavors and just sit down and test them all out, lol. I know there will be a ton of specials so I’ll try to post them soon!

Check out their contest for $10,000 in big beans!
