El Almendro Turron Duro – Why create specific dates for happiness?

I have never quite had anything like it. The nougat really is great, crispy, crunchy, sweet with a touch of honey flavor. There is almost no tooth stick unlike what I was expecting and the fantastic almonds are muey plentiful and somehow sweet – I think – could be the nougat. They boast a 63% almond content. There is a weird paper on both sides of the bar – something like rice paper – but it didn’t really bother me.

Rock Band, Yogurt and Haribo Jogi Bussi

The crowd goes wild. Haribo Jogi Bussi is pretty darn good. Thick gummy texture. Haribo's signiture fruity flavors and a twist - these are actually filled with liquid yogurt. They also have that layer of foam on the bottom that seems perfect as an addition to Haribo's gummy's but too much when its the main course. This all worked perfectly for me.
