Candygurus

I had to buy these to check them out.

I used to love Good & Plenty. Now, I’m ruined. These take licorice to the HNL.

Despite being a terrible review, this is a GREAT candy. One of my new faves.

What’s the smoothest candy you know. Think about it for a second.
Werther’s Originals of course.
Those things are so slick that if you pop one in your mouth, and don’t grab it with your teeth but then breathe deeply really fast, you’ll suck that bad boy right into your choker. They are so slippery smooth that [...]

You wanna talk old school? It doesn’t get older (or stickier) than this.

Wanna win a bunch of Milky Way Simply Caramel bars and a US$75 gift certificate to Spafinder.com? Watch the vid yo.

I’ve held back for years, until now. I bought my first Airhead.

I found new Haribo. How often do Jonny and I bitch about there not being more types of Haribo? ALL THE TIME. And now there is. It’s really quite remarkable. Watch the vid and you’ll get revved up to seek out Fruity Fruttis. Trust me on this – they’re good.

Haribo Mini Rainbow Frogs: I refuse to write a long post about these. Why? Because like sex, it’s better experienced than read about.

This claims to be the FIRST EVER combination candy bar. Intrigued?

Albanese Gummis Sour Inch Worms calls themselves World’s Best. Not country’s best. Not state’s best. WORLD’S BEST. Us Candygurus calls thems fighting words. A new candy maker creating a semi-tired, yet tried/true, sour worm gummi and calling them “Worlds Best?” We’ll be the judges of that.

Grandma might steal them from you.

I’m plum out of candy and I’m tired of Viet Namese sweets that no one has ever heard of…So I went down to my work’s all-organic, we-feed-you-all-the-time-so-you’ll-never-leave cafe, and I bought me some Nugo. Vanilla Yogie Nugo.

Baby poo or zit insides? Either way, not good news.

“I taste loads of tamarind, and spice and salt.” Which country made the candy I’m eating? Mexico. Of course! Tamarind is to Mexican candy like mustard is to American hot dogs – slopped on there every time whether you want it or not. Vero Mangos though…kinda yums.

Dorval sour belts and straws are great-but the toss in throw-away candy they included stole the show

Foreign Candy Company sweets in this week’s video – include Rips, Rips Bits, Rips Whips, Rips Hips and Rips Lips. OK the last two I made up.

Green Tea and Intense Roasted Soybean Kit Kats. Breakfast time!

What are they? Oh just little fun boxes filled with yr favorite sweet cereals covered in chocolate. Any kid under 10 will rid their DVRs of Hannah Montana for a year straight to get a fix of this stuff.

Vosges continues to make chocolate based candy treats that are insta-classics. This time is no exception.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard a dude say, “Man, I sure could use a smooth chocolate truffle right now.” Still – when the experts at Gail Ambrosius Chocolatier sent us a note asking if we wanted to try their wares, I of course said yes since – well, it IS candy, and well, I AM a pushover and I’ll try anything once espesh if it’s free.

If you’re gonna make a fu&*@ing jalapeno lollipop, MAYBE you should put some jalapenos in it? Just an idea.

Matty reviews the latest from Trolli. They look like green men, taste fruity, and are simply craptastic!

Dammit if the Dutch aren’t just super right on. They make great licorice. They aren’t afraid of really pushing anise. They don’t pretend to cater to children. They play to adults. And they use salt. Like all good cooks.

Really? ANOTHER great candy that we can’t get in America???

After 6 days of literally ingesting nothing but lemon juice, syrup, water and cayenne, I’m back eating candy – and maybe a week off from candy curdles the brain but when I opened this Trolli package – I was yummed over.

Solid candies from a family company. Word!

They’re called güdfüd and they’re American. Read the review, but I warn you, though the candy is good, this review sucks.

Oral fixation never had it so bad…

The world needed gummy shot glasses. Now they’re here.
