So they are not new to me, but I feel it is my duty to share with you the pleasures of eating these chocolates.  They can be found at Asian grocery stores, but specifically Japanese stores.  They cost a little under a dollar with plenty of strawberry chocolate goodies inside.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/meiji-apollo-strawberry-chocolate-2.jpg" rel="lightbox[1347]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/meiji-apollo-strawberry-chocolate-2-250x167.jpg" alt="" title="meiji apollo strawberry chocolate 2" width="250" height="167" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1379" /></a>The packaging is a small, cute box with strawberries printed all over it.  The chocolates themselves are shaped like fancy cones with the chocolate brown color on the bottom and the strawberry pink color covering the top.  Matching its cute appearance, is its wonderful taste.  There is nothing hidden inside these chocolates.  It is a solid milk chocolate and strawberry cream.  They manage to maintain their shape in the box, but easily melt in your mouth giving you this creamy sweet, but not too sweet, strawberry chocolate flavor.  Never have I tasted such a delicious blend of strawberry and chocolate flavored candy where neither the chocolate nor the strawberry are overpowering the other.  </p>
<p>I loved these growing up and I continue to love them now!</p>

Today, I was shopping at Walmart when I came across new Skittles at the checkout counter.  They are called Fizzl&#8217;d Fruits and are found in a dark blue Skittles wrapper.  With the same five, fruity flavors as the Wild Berry Skittles, the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&#038;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26x%3D0%26ref_%3Dnb%5Fsb%5Fnoss%26y%3D0%26field-keywords%3Dskittles%2520fizzl%2527d%2520fruits%26url%3Dsearch-alias%253Daps&#038;tag=iheartcandies-20&#038;linkCode=ur2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=390957">Fizzl&#8217;d Fruits Skittles</a> consist of Berry Punch, Melon Berry, Raspberry, Strawberry, and Wild Cherry.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/skittles-fizzld-fruit-2.jpg" rel="lightbox[1272]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/skittles-fizzld-fruit-2-250x167.jpg" alt="" title="skittles fizzld fruit 2" width="250" height="167" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1283" /></a>Super excited to try these new Fizzl&#8217;d Fruits Skittles, I looked in the bag and found that they look similar to Sour Skittles.  But instead of sour sugar crystals, these Fizzl&#8217;d Skittles have a powder coating that provide a fizzy sensation.  The more powder, the more fizzy the sensation.  For instance, I ate one that barely had powder on it, and it tasted just like I was eating a regular Skittle from the Wild Berry Skittles variety.  Then I ate one with a lot of powder coating, and I was instantly hit with a jolt of fizziness.  By fizziness, I mean a one to two second delightful, tingling sensation on the tongue similar to a mild soda fizz.  You only notice it if you initally suck on the Skittle, but if you just go straight to chewing you most likely will not notice a difference.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/skittles-fizzld-fruit-3.jpg" rel="lightbox[1272]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/skittles-fizzld-fruit-3-250x167.jpg" alt="" title="skittles fizzld fruit 3" width="250" height="167" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1284" /></a>If you like the Wild Berry Skittles, then you will love these Fizzl&#8217;d Fruits Skittles.  It essentially is a bag of Wild Berry Skittles with a twist.  Although I like every flavor in this bag, I do feel that the company could have come up with an entirely new line of flavors for this Fizzl&#8217;d Fruits edition.  Maybe a fizzl&#8217;d fruity soda edition with flavors such as grape soda, melon soda, strawberry soda, etc?   Even with the repetitive flavors, 50 cents for one bag is well worth it for these yummy Fizzl&#8217;d Fruits Skittles.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/turron-supercoco-1.jpg" rel="lightbox[1206]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/turron-supercoco-1-250x167.jpg" alt="" title="turron supercoco 1" width="250" height="167" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1215" /></a>Now here is another review of a Colombian candy.  This one is called Turrón Supercoco.  The packaging has a green and yellow design with a picture of a coconut on the front. According to the bag, the candy contains 100% natural pieces of coconut.  Although I am not a huge fan of coconut flavored anything, I am all about using natural ingredients.  </p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/turron-supercoco-2.jpg" rel="lightbox[1206]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/turron-supercoco-2-250x167.jpg" alt="" title="turron supercoco 2" width="250" height="167" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1216" /></a>Inside the bag, there are 50 rectangular candy pieces, or as the bag describes them, &#8220;Turrones.&#8221; I unwrapped my first piece and immediately smelled the coconut.  I popped it in my mouth and could taste somewhat of a sweet, sugary, caramel like flavor.  The coconut flavor was also present, but became more obvious after sucking on the candy for awhile.  Surprisingly, I actually thought the flavor was pretty good.  However, the texture could use a little work.  It starts off as this solid rectangular candy, but after sucking on it, the coconut pieces start to appear and the texture goes from a smooth surface to a rough one.  The coconut pieces are similar to hardened grated coconut pieces and while they may be good on dessert, they are not as appealing in these Turrones.  I especially did not like being left with coconut pieces in the back of my throat.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/turron-supercoco-3.jpg" rel="lightbox[1206]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/turron-supercoco-3-250x167.jpg" alt="" title="turron supercoco 3" width="250" height="167" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1217" /></a>Overall, I would have to say these Turrón Supercoco candies are all right.  The flavor is fine, but the texture could be better.  Rather than sucking on the candy, I found that chewing on the candy worked out better for me.  Do note that the texture does not necessarily make these candies soft chews, it will take some effort to get into it.  For me, chewing on the candy disguised the hardened coconut pieces, so I was left to merely enjoy the taste of the sugary, coconut flavor.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/sweet-factory-fantasy-sour-belts-1.jpg" rel="lightbox[1120]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/sweet-factory-fantasy-sour-belts-1-250x167.jpg" alt="" title="sweet factory fantasy sour belts 1" width="250" height="167" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1165" /></a>I was at the mall last week and I stopped by the Sweet Factory.  For those of you who don’t know what the Sweet Factory is, it is a candy store usually found in a mall, with a large selection of goodies.  You grab a bag and fill it with whichever candies you want and pay per pound.  So, I was with my brother and we each grabbed a bag to fill with candy.  My bag, of course, consisted of sour candy, mainly sour belts and sour cherries.  Our total candy combined came out to about $14; which I found ridiculous considering how it didn’t seem like we had that much candy.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/sweet-factory-fantasy-sour-belts-2.jpg" rel="lightbox[1120]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/sweet-factory-fantasy-sour-belts-2-250x167.jpg" alt="" title="sweet factory fantasy sour belts 2" width="250" height="167" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1166" /></a>First of all, these belts are multi-colored with red, yellow, green, and blue.  The red is strawberry, the yellow is banana, the green is apple, and the blue is blue raspberry.  The flavors are not distinct enough to pick out when you bite into it, but together they taste delicious.  To top it off, the entire belt is covered with sour crystals.  When you bite off a piece, you get that initial sourness, and then it turns into a really yummy fruity, sweetness.  Hands down, this is the best sour belt flavor out there.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/sweet-factory-fantasy-sour-belts-3.jpg" rel="lightbox[1120]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/sweet-factory-fantasy-sour-belts-3-250x167.jpg" alt="" title="sweet factory fantasy sour belts 3" width="250" height="167" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1167" /></a>I absolutely fell in love with the Fantasy Sour Belts.  Don’t get me wrong, I have had these sour belts in the past, but I had forgotten just how good they were.  I quickly finished off what little sour belts I had, and went on an Internet hunt for more.  That led me to <a href="http://www.sweetfactory.com/">Sweet Factory’s website</a> where I found that they sell candies in bulk.  So yes, I gave in and bought a huge tub of Fantasy Sour Belts.  A 4.1 pound tub of Fantasy Sour Belts to be exact!</p>
<p>I ordered my gigantic tub of Fantasy Sour Belts on Friday night and they came in the mail the following Tuesday.  For standard shipping, I was surprised but extremely happy to have my candy so soon.  One thing I did notice is that the Fantasy Sour Belts I bought from the actual store were sourer than the ones I received in the mail.  Oh well, I guess it’s one of those “luck of the draw” type of things.  In the end, I am still really happy with my Fantasy Sour Belts.  How could I not be, when I have this huge tub of sour belts that will last me forever? =D</p>

However, don’t be fooled, the bar still isn’t good for your diet and excessive consumption of maltitol can have a laxative effect.  Personally, I have been working through an entire Guylian Dark Orange bar and so far, no complications =D</p>

The dark chocolate itself isn’t bitter nor is it sweet.  Whenever I eat it though, I taste a slight bitterness which I think comes from the orange flavoring.  The orange flavor can make the chocolate taste bitterer than it really is.  At first, I wasn’t a fan of this chocolate bar.  Even the orange scent coming from the bar wasn’t appealing to me.  </p>

I still don’t think orange and chocolate make the best combination, but it isn’t absolutely disgusting either.  At $3.59, the Guylian bar is pretty darn pricey.  For the same price, I could easily find another chocolate bar more suited for me.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-1.JPG" rel="lightbox[863]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-1-250x167.jpg" alt="hawaiian punch jelly beans 1" title="hawaiian punch jelly beans 1" width="250" height="167" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-864" /></a>Hawaiian Punch was one of my classic, childhood drinks.  I loved it!  I remember buying them in both little juice packs and in cans.  Nowadays, they also come packaged in big juice bottles.  In the candy world, Brach&#8217;s has jumped on the Hawaiian Punch train to bring us Hawaiian Punch Jelly Beans!  The bag costs just under $3 and comes packed with six flavors:</p>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-orange-ocean.JPG" rel="lightbox[863]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-orange-ocean-250x167.jpg" alt="Orange Ocean" width="250" height="167" class="size-medium wp-image-871" /></a></div>
<p>The <strong>Orange Ocean</strong> jelly bean is&#8230; orange of course!  I for one think the flavor sounds cute.  Taste-wise, it isn&#8217;t anything special. It just tastes like a plain ol&#8217; orange jelly bean.</p>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-fruity-juicy-red.JPG" rel="lightbox[863]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-fruity-juicy-red-250x167.jpg" alt="Fruit Juicy Red" width="250" height="167" class="size-medium wp-image-867" /></a></div>
<p>This is the <strong>Juicy Fruit Red</strong> flavor and just like it sounds, it is red.  The name of the flavor doesn&#8217;t really describe what flavor it is supposed to be and tasting it doesn&#8217;t help much either.  The flavor isn&#8217;t unpleasant, but it isn&#8217;t good either. </p>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-berry-blue-typhoon.JPG" rel="lightbox[863]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-berry-blue-typhoon-250x167.jpg" alt="Berry Blue Typhoon" width="250" height="167" class="size-medium wp-image-866" /></a></div>
<p>The <strong>Berry Blue Typhoon</strong> jelly bean is blue speckled with purple.  It is also a berry flavor, but more of a blue raspberry flavor.  It&#8217;s decent, but far from being my favorite.</p>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-green-berry-rush.JPG" rel="lightbox[863]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-green-berry-rush-250x167.jpg" alt="Green Berry Rush" width="250" height="167" class="size-medium wp-image-868" /></a></div>
<p>For the <strong>Green Berry Rush</strong> flavor, the jelly bean is light green with blue speckles.  Unlike the previous two flavors, this one was delicious!  It&#8217;s a berry flavor with a tropical hint to it.</p>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-mango-passionfruit-squeeze.JPG" rel="lightbox[863]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-mango-passionfruit-squeeze-250x167.jpg" alt="Mango Passionfruit Squeeze" width="250" height="167" class="size-medium wp-image-870" /></a></div>
<p>The <strong>Mango Passionfruit Squeeze</strong>, looks-wise, is the exact opposite of the Lemon Berry Squeeze.  It is yellow with pink speckles.  The mango and passionfruit flavors really pop in this jelly bean.  Compared to the Lemon Berry Squeeze, the Mango Passionfruit Squeeze looks better but doesn&#8217;t taste as good.</p>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-lemon-berry-squeeze.JPG" rel="lightbox[863]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-lemon-berry-squeeze-250x167.jpg" alt="Lemon Berry Squeeze" width="250" height="167" class="size-medium wp-image-869" /></a></div>
<p>The <strong>Lemon Berry Squeeze</strong> jelly bean is pink with yellow speckles.  The lemon really stands out and the addition of the berry flavor makes this jelly bean stand out.  </p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-2.JPG" rel="lightbox[863]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/hawaiian-punch-jelly-beans-2-250x167.jpg" alt="hawaiian punch jelly beans 2" title="hawaiian punch jelly beans 2" width="250" height="167" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-865" /></a>All in all, this is a decent bag of jelly beans.  The Fruit Juicy Red, Orange Ocean and Berry Blue Typhoons are boring flavors compared to the other three.  They seem very plain and don&#8217;t stand out in the bag.  The Green Berry Rush flavor is my favorite and the Lemon Berry Squeeze comes in close second.  If I could buy a bag with just those flavors, I would.  Since I can&#8217;t, I really don&#8217;t see myself buying another bag of these Hawaiian Punch Jelly Beans.</p>

<p>I have tried <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&#038;location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fs%3Fie%3DUTF8%26search-alias%3Dgrocery%26ref_%3Da9%255Fsc%255F1%26qid%3D1260519266%26field-keywords%3Dbaskin%2520robbins%2520hard%2520candy&#038;tag=iheartcandies-20&#038;linkCode=ur2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=390957">Baskin-Robbins Hard Candy</a> in mint chocolate chip, but I have never seen the soft candy line.  I found two soft candy flavors – mint chocolate chip and very berry strawberry.  Both are really good ice cream flavors, but how would they taste as soft candy chews?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/baskin-robbins-soft-candy-very-berry-strawberry.JPG" rel="lightbox[818]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/baskin-robbins-soft-candy-very-berry-strawberry-250x167.jpg" alt="baskin-robbins soft candy very berry strawberry" width="250" height="167" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-820" /></a>Starting with the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002VYS3B6?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=iheartcandies-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=390957&#038;creativeASIN=B002VYS3B6">Baskin-Robbins Very Berry Strawberry Soft Candy</a>.  Inside the box is roughly 20 pieces, individually wrapped in a shiny silver wrapper with the Baskin-Robbins logo all over it.  The soft chews themselves are pink speckled with red.  If you’ve had the ice cream, you’ll know the ice cream is also pink with red strawberry pieces mixed in.  The strawberry flavor is actually pretty good and reminds me of the flavor (not texture) of Strawberry Hi-Chew.  The texture of these Baskin-Robbins Soft Candy is what ruins it for me as I find it too soft.  </p>

<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/baskin-robbins-soft-candy-mint-chocolate-chip.JPG" rel="lightbox[818]"><img src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/baskin-robbins-soft-candy-mint-chocolate-chip-250x167.jpg" alt="baskin-robbins soft candy mint chocolate chip" width="250" height="167" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-821" /></a>The Baskin-Robbins Mint Chocolate Chip Soft Candy are packaged in the same wrappers as the very berry strawberry flavor.  The candy is green with black dots all over similar to the look of mint chocolate chip ice cream.  The black dots, of course, represent the chocolate chips.  The flavor tastes like mint chocolate chip, but again, the texture is what throws it off.  Although decent overall, I think the mint chocolate chip hard candy tastes better.</p>

<p>I bought both boxes on sale at 35 cents each.  Overall, they&#8217;re just average.  They both smell extremely delicious, but the taste and texture don’t live up to the ice cream.  Let’s face it though, nothing would taste as good as the actual ice cream.</p>

I love Christmas themed candy and this one really caught my eye.   The box is covered with red Nerds and has three flavors listed – Watermelon, Wild Cherry, and Punch.  On the back of the box is a little message from the Wonka Company that reads “Greetings to you from Willy Wonka himself!  Tremendous things are in store for you!  Many tasty treats await you!  Inside this Scrumdiddlyumptious package you will find mystic and marvelous surprises that will entrance, intrigue &amp; delight you beyond measure.”  Haha I love it!  Let’s see if it holds true.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/frosty-nerds-2.JPG" rel="lightbox[699]"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-701" src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/frosty-nerds-2-250x167.jpg" alt="frosty nerds 2" width="250" height="167" /></a>The top-left side of the box has a tab that you can open to pour the nerds out and tuck in to close.  Because the box is completely covered with red Nerds, I had assumed the three flavors would all be red and it would be a surprise as to which flavor Nerd you would actually be eating.  However, upon lifting the tab, I saw not only red Nerds, but green and white also.  Definitely a lot prettier than I had imagined.   I looked at the box again and realized that there were seven red, green, and white Nerds that I had not noticed before.  They are really cute too since the seven Nerds are wearing Christmas hats, scarves or winter hats =D</p>
<p><a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/frosty-nerds-3.JPG" rel="lightbox[699]"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-702" src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/frosty-nerds-3-250x167.jpg" alt="frosty nerds 3" width="250" height="167" /></a>The watermelon, wild cherry and punch flavors are really good.  If you pick out each color, you can taste the difference between the three flavors.  Of the three, I would say the Wild Cherry flavor is the most pronounced and best tasting.  All together, they taste like tangy, delicious Nerds.  I agree with the box and say this makes a great stocking stuffer!  Great Christmas candy for only 99 cents =D</p>

For those of you who don’t know what Pop Rocks are, just imagine hard candy smashed into thousands of pieces that pop and crackle in your mouth.</p>
<p>I opened a packet and saw white and red colored Pop Rocks.  Just by looking at it, I could almost taste how good the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000LR9Z1C?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=iheartcandies-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=390957&#038;creativeASIN=B000LR9Z1C">Candy Cane Pop Rocks</a> would be.  I leaned my head back, took a “swig,” and instead of immediate happiness, I paused.  What?  Cherry?  I tasted cherry, but was sure that I had to be wrong.  <a href="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/pop-rocks-candy-cane-2.JPG" rel="lightbox[695]"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-697" src="http://www.iheartcandies.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/pop-rocks-candy-cane-2-250x167.jpg" alt="pop rocks candy cane 2" width="250" height="167" /></a>So I tossed more in my mouth and the disappointment really sunk in.  I felt betrayed.  They tasted nothing like candy canes.  In fact, they tasted exactly like their original Strawberry Pop Rocks.</p>
<p>For a pack of three, these cost a little over a buck.  I rate it a two merely for the false advertisement.  Sure, they are Pop Rocks and they did indeed pop in my mouth, but there was no hint whatsoever of a candy cane flavor.  Take my advice, pass on these “Candy Cane” Pop Rocks (especially if you&#8217;ve already tried the strawberry flavor).</p>

Each package comes with two red cherry flavored ropes with blue punch filling.  The cherry rope has a perfect chewy consistency; not too hard and not too soft.  I could easily chew it without it getting stuck to my teeth.  The punch filling looks gooey and sticky, but practically melts in your mouth.  Together, the Cherry Punch Kazoozles are absolutely “delickoricious.”  They are like fruit snacks, but better.</p>

They look exactly like the Cherry Punch Kazoozles except the pink lemonade version has sour sugar crystals sprinkled all over it.  Don’t let that fool you though; the crystals make it more tangy than sour.  Nothing on the wrapper says it’s supposed to be sour, so I can’t really be mad at that.  Overall, the Pink Lemonade Kazoozles taste good, can be a bit messy due to the sugar crystals.<br />

<strong>Pink Lemonade Kazoozles -</strong> <strong>Rating:</strong> 3 out of 5 stars</p>
<p>Both were pretty tasty but I prefer the cherry punch over the pink lemonade for two reasons.  First, the Cherry Punch Kazoozles aren’t as messy as the sugar covered Pink Lemonade Kazoozles.  Second, the flavor of the cherry rope speaks to the cherry fruit roll-up lover in me.  For 69 cents each, you can’t really go wrong with either of them.</p>
