Perks: Apparently if you email them your favorites they will send you a complimentary box of them. Not 100% sure on this, but will try to see what happens.
How cool is this subscription? I love trying new things, and thought the concept of this is really neat. Obviously you are not getting $16 worth of product, but love love love this idea. So, they emailed me a list of all the products. I will say it took me a while to decipher what each thing was. If you watch the video, I was confused for the first 3 minutes. But I did end up getting it, and again, way cool! So I did receive the 15 pieces on the list. I've liked most everything so far. In general though, I've decided USA chocolate isn't as sweet as all this! Some of the sweetest is overpowering, but oh so good. So enough of me rambling, here is the box.
Isn't this so fun and exciting! 15 pieces of candy just wanting to be reviewed.
Popular Pear flavored hard candy (Received two)
Tasted a bit like bananas, which I do not like. They were okay, but I'm also not a big pear person. So between the banana bit, and the pear bit, they were weird to me. Also gave me instant heart burn...weird.
2. Miezanka Krakowksa, Poland
Chocolate coated sweet jelly candy
This so far, is the only one I couldn't finish. The taste was fine, I couldn't do the jelly consistency.
3. "Cup of Milk", Ukraine
Individually wrapped soft caramel with milk filling.
This was okay, I didn't bite through the middle because I was expecting a liquid. But the "milk" bit is frosting type. It is a very soft caramel.
4. Dobryanka, Turkey
Delicious chocolate dessert with cream filling hazelnut.
OMG!!! So good!!!! This was very sweet, but delicious. It reminds me of a giant Ferrero Rocher
Soft and delightful strawberry cream cake.
The cake was vanilla flavored and had a strawberry filling. I wouldn't say it was a creamy consistency, kind of a jelly consistency. Egh..
6. Roshen Mont Blanc, Ukraine
A tasty combination of two chocolates and chopped hazelnuts.
So good! Another example of extremely sweet chocolate, the top was white chocolate, and bottom milk.
7. Bon O Bon, Brazil
Peanut cream and wafer filled milk chocolate Bon Bon.
Just ate this actually. Really liked it. I like when candy has crumch to it.
Traditiomal sweet tiramisu caramel flavored truffle.
I'm not a huge fan of tiramisu, but this was delightful.. I first opened it and was nervous, there is I believe, coffee coated on the oatside, and it was hard. Then I bit into it and I can't really describe the taste but was really good. Nutty, chocolate crunch.
9. Squirrel Hard Candy, Ukraine
Hard Candy with a nut in the middle.
Very nutty, with chocolate on the outside. Yum!
10. Ptichye Moloko, Kazahstan
Chocolate covered Vanilla Souffle
This was decent. The chocolate was good, and the vanilla bit could have a been more flavorful.
11. Turron Supercoco, Colombia
All natural coconut hard candy from Colombia.
I really enjoyed this one. I love coconut. This is probably my favorite. Wasn't too sweet, just coconut.
12. Shipuchka Roshen, Ukraine
Hard candies with fizzy fruity flavors
I received lemon, it was really good. Reminds me of a non-sour war head.
13. Zephyr Souffle, Russia
French zephyr souffle covered in chocolate
I have decided this was my least favorite. I didn't like this one. I wasn't sure what a Zephyr souffle was, but under the chocolate, there was a jellied strawberry filling. It was nasty. I didn't like the consistency at all and it stuck to my teeth in a weird way. Russians can keep their Zephyr souffles.
14. Ulker Dankek, Turkey
Chocolate orange sauce filled cocoa vanilla flavored cake.
It said in the email, orange, but I received banana. Kind of a let down, sense I'm not a banana person. This was a larger piece. I thought it was very dry, and the filling was a weird consistency. Not my fav.
So overall I did receive 15 piece, (again received two pear candies). Really love this idea. I'd love to see if they switch it up every month, or if we'll see repeats. If you have food allergies, they cannot guarantee any of this are for dietary needs.
