Candy and Gum from Spain (Spots Rugby Ball gum, Mojito gum and Trolli Burger gummy)

Today I am going to review gums and gummies bought in Spain, it will be a short post as I spent all the day at University, but following ones will be longer and of candy from countries as Taiwan, Japan and Mexico!! 🙂

This is another bubble gum from the brand Fini. This time is a rugby ball, included in the sport balls gums. Last time was a tennis ball, do you remember?

The tennis ball was more sour than this one, like a citric flavour, but this rugby ball is more sweet and it also has juice inside.

The only bad thing anout this kind of gums is that the flavour lasts little time. They will be much better if you could chew them until you are bored.

Cartoons corn snacks (Minios, Frozen and Time for adventures)

Today is Sunday, so I will review three cartoons corn snacks that I have being eating during this week (I couldn’t it all three in one day sorry hahaha).

First one is a Minions cheesy corn snack. The package is just too cute, and the snacks try to copy the Minions shape. They come with a Minions tattoo inside (it is a surprise gift, so I dont know if it is always a tattoo).

The snacks taste so good, but I do think they are too similar to other cheesy snacks. There cant be so different ones from anothers as they are all made with corn and cheese flavour, so you know, it is a common flavour, but a really good one.

Chocolate bars and cakes from Spain

Hello! Today I want to review some Spanish chocolate bars and mini cakes for you!

Pinky’s is a small cake from the Spanish brand Dulcesol. It is cake filled with cream and covered with strawberry.

The flavour is so soft and tasty, I really love it, but I do like better the one called Pink Panther cake of the brand Bimbo. It is exactly the same, but it tastes better. I give to this Pinky’s a 9 and to Pink Panther one a 10.

I will probably show you the Pink Panther one in the future.

Chapelas is a cake filled with cream and covered with chocolate from the Spanish brand Dulcesol.

The flavour is soft and I like it very much. The chocolate tastes as real dark chocolate and the cake is too tender.

Whereas it is so good, I prefer the one called Phoskitos, that is the same cake but the «original» one.

My boyfriend is going to bring me similar cakes from Mexico, on as this one called Mamut and another same to this one but with jelly inside called Gansitos. Will review them with him when he arrives 🙂

Huesitos is a chocolate and wafer bar from the Spanish brand Valor.

As you may know, reality isnt always the same as the marketing photo of the product, you just have to compare the photo with the real wafer.

But anyway, the flavour is good although it is a little bit cloying. After eating this you dont want to eat any more sweets till some time has passed.

So the conclusion is that the flavour is good but cloying and the texture is a little bit tempering.

On the weekend I will review candy from Taiwan, and cartoon corn snacks from Spain. Hope you like it.

Fini candy

Today I was more into eating candy than snacks, so I tasted for the first time these two candies from the Spanish brand Fini.

First I tried the Fini Roller! It is a long candy roll with 4 different colours on it and lots of sugar! The package says Extra Sour, but in my opinion it is not that sour. I est the whole roll without closing an eye, so more sweet than sour. I liked it very much!! Will buy it again! 🙂

• Packaging Factor: 8
• Flavour Factor: 9

  
Secondly I tried the Sport Balls gum, from the Spanish brand Fini as well. They are tennis balls gums and when you first bite them you feel like a liquid inside of it. It is very tasty, and the first moments are like heaven, but then, after 2 minutes chewing it, the gum loses all its flavour and you have to throw it away. So after all these:

• Packaging Factor: 6
• Flavour Factor: 8

The Flavour Factor would be a 10 if the flavour lasted longer.

  
PS: Today I received my firsts candy and snacks from Taiwan thanks to @_smlee on Instagram! I will review them on the weekend.

Candy from Spain

Today i wanted to review Spanish candy, but as the ones i am reviewing come in little packages i will review several ones at the same post.

I have been eating these candy since i was a kid, and i really like them all!

To start with, Pikotas are lil strawberry candies with round shape. They are more hard in the outside and soft in the inside and they are pretty awesome! In the photo you can see the texture that is inside the candy and it looks really good (it tastes better). The only bad thing about them is that you finish eating it so fast, as they are one bite candy.

• Packaging Factor: 4
• Flavour Factor: 9

  

The next one is called Palotes. It is a stick of strawberry flavour. The texture is like a gum at first, but then you swallow it. It is too sticky that sometimes it gets glued to the molars, but the flavour is amazing!

• Packaging Factor: 5
• Flavour Factor: 9

  

The third one is called Mega fizzroll, and they are several pills of differnt flavours. It is like concentrated powder that when gets in contact with the saliva it starts to  disapear. They are not as fizzy as those candies that makes even bubbles in your mouth, but they are little bit fizzy.

• Packaging Factor: 4
• Flavour Factor: 8

  
And the last but not least is the Fresquitos product from the brand Fiesta.

It is a package filled of cherry powder and a cherry lollipop. It is not sour, maybe sometimes you dont feel the powder too sweet but it never gets to the category of sour. So the package is a lil bit confusing as the face the guy is making let you think it is going to be soooo sour. The lollipop has an amazing cherry flavour, I like it very much.

Hope you like the reviews and see you on Tuesday with a chocolate one!

Disney princesses cheesy corn snack!

Hi! Happy Saturday everybody! Yesterday i found a new candy shop near my house and I enter to see what they had. And great surprise, they had hundreds of different candy and snacks, spanish products i had never seen! And as you may imagine, i bought several things to review 🙂

Today i wanted to try for the first time this corn snack with cheese flavour. In the past, i tasted lots of snacks similar to this one, but you know, it has Disney princesses on the package and they are heart shapes, so it is long better than the ones i have tasted hahaha.

To be honest, the flavour is the same as other cheesy corn snacks, but i have to admit i like them a lot. The texture is perfect, crunchy and soft. They have heart shape which is a positive point and the packaging is just awesome.

It included a surprise gift that turned out being a princess ring (Cinderella to be precise). I will give the ring to the daughter of my Japanesse penpal, she is 3 years old and loves disney princesses too much! If i ever buy them again will let you know if the gift is always a ring or they haver different things.

The bag weights 28g and is gluten free.

I put some photos for you to see the snack and the gift.

Today the review will be about candy! 💗

Popcorns covered with chocolate and strawberry.

Hi! Today is Thursday, so it is review day!
I went buying some snacks for the next 3 reviews and today I was into the mood of tasting those you see in the photo.

They are two popcorn packages from the company Tosfrit from Spain. The special about these is that they are not normal popcorn, one is cover with strawberry and the other with chocolate and hazelnuts. Athey are calles Caprichocos and it is the first time I see them here.

The strawberry one is sooo good! I liked it very much! It is so soft and fresh and the flavour is amazing. Whereas the popcorn is not real popcorn like the ones you have at the cinema or make in the microwave. They are like corn snacks with yellow colour.

On the other hand, the chocolate one is not so good. It tastes good, but it is not too tasty. I have tried another brand of chocolate popcorns that are better (I will give you the brand in the future as I dont remember it now).

Each bag is 30g weight and they are gluten free.

So after all of these, I will make my scores:

• Packaging Factor: 7
• Flavour Factor: 6 (chocolate) and 8 (strawberry)

Fritos – corn snack with BBQ flavour.

Fritos are a corn snack from the company Matutano, from Spain. They are strips made with corn and with salty and BBQ flavour, but it is not a stong flavour, actually it is really soft and nice.

They are gluten free, something very important these days due to all the celiac people and each bag weights 42g and has 229kcal.

They are very crunchy and addictive, once you taste one you need to eat the entire package, and that is exactly what happened to me.

The packaging design is quite simple, but the colours make you to think about BBQ sauce. I like Matutano’s logo a lot! It is quite funny 🙂 This company has lots of different snacks, and I am sure I will be reviewing some in the future.

• Packaging Factor: 5
• Flavour Factor: 8

I can’t wait to get some international snacks that are travelling to my home, and to be honest I am veryyy excited about trying japanesse candy! They are so strange to me, but at the same time really cute, and I am dying for trying new flavours!

Hope you like these reviews, and stayed tuned for upcoming international candy.

Monsters Gummies Boxes from Tiger

Hi! This is the review of this cute monster little boxes of gummies from the shop Tiger.

As always, I buy the Tiger shop products in Spain, but you shoud be able to find them in other Tiger shops from all over the world.

Let’s start with the blue one! That lil box is filled up with black licorice gummies. I do love black licorice! Some people can’t stand it but I do like it very much! But to be honest, this Tiger gummies were tooo strong flavour that I had to get it out of my mouth before finish it. I don’t like them at all, but lucky me, my mom loves them, so I don’t have to throw them.

The green box has what is called wine gummies, and they are 3 different colours and flavours. The red gummies are strawberry flavour, the orange ones are orange flavour and the green ones are kind of pineapple flavour. And these ones yes, are extremlyyy yummyyy! I really love them! They are very soft and with gum texture.

Each box is 23g weight and they don’t have any fat.

• Package Factor: 9
• Flavour Factor: 3 (black licorice – blue box) and 9 (fruits flavours – green box)

PS: The boxes have much more gummies that the ones are shown in the photo, but I only took a little amount.

Pretzels from Tiger

Hello guys! Today I tasted for the first time these Pretzels from Tiger shop.

I bought them here in Spain, but I do think you can find them in every Tiger shop from all over the world.

Well, as you mostly know, pretzels are origanally from Germany, and there they have hugeeee ones!

The ones i have bought are pretty good! But be aware that they are extremelly salty, so have a drink with you!

They are crispy salty cookies with a very special flavour and loop shape and you can find salt licks on them.

The original ones that are made in Germany are bigger and with bread texture, no crispy one. I tried several ones of them in my last trip to Germany on the month of July.
