I really like it myself, but I know people say it’s too sweet, which makes sense because I have a massive sweet tooth. I’m not really familiar with the cost of the ingredients in this chocolate (pistachio, knafeh (I think that’s what it’s called?)), but I kind of think it being a trend makes businesses price it pretty steeply for chocolate.

So disappointed, I’m afraid to try the Mars now

Are PREMIUM chocolate customers big enough?

Do you ‘prefer/will you buy’ premium chocolate bars?

Like a lot of Brits in the US, I regularly get cravings for the chocolate I grew up with such as Double Decker, Wispa, and Twirls (my favorite). Buying them online always felt harder than it should be, between high free-shipping minimums and sites that made it hard to see what I was actually getting.

I have basically zero retail experience, but I work in tech, so two months ago I set myself a challenge: build an online store from scratch. That meant sorting out importing and logistics, building the website, and designing and producing the packaging, all in eight weeks.

It’s live now at farthingandco.com. Full disclosure: it’s mine, so take my enthusiasm with a pinch of salt. The range is small for now and I’m adding more over the next few months.

I’d really appreciate feedback on the site, pricing and shipping costs. I’m also happy to answer questions about what it’s actually like to set up a small import business.

And which British bars do you miss most, or wish you could find here? That’ll shape what I stock next.

I moved to an area that has an international candy store a block away, bad news for my dentist.

I want to review all the new candies I will consume.

Lion bar- google says UK origin, the ingredients on the wrapper are in German.

Probably my favorite thus far.

The waffel wafers were not what I was expecting. I was expecting a much more brittle wafer akin to a kitkat. It was surprisingly soft.

The wrapper is misleading in the way of showing the puffed rice, there was way more than shown, it was a pleasant surprise.

The caramel is by far the best caramel I've tasted in a candy bar. Not sticky so it doesn't stick to your teeth as much as some other brands. Not overly sweet either, it complemented the chocolate well.

9/10- docked a point because it looks like a turd. Will be consuming again.

During my trip to the states I bought loads of different m&ms, including the standard milk chocolate.

I enjoyed the american version of the milk chocolate when I got back a lot, they were really good and a solid snack.

I then had the uk m&ms again, and my god its like night and day. The chocolate tastes a lot richer.

Have you guys had Bubs? The gummy candy from Sweden? I am obsessed with them. They’re all I think about. Normally, I like all kinds of sweets, but now, they’re all I want. I don’t know if it’s the texture, or the flavor, but I can’t stop eating them. I can’t buy them anymore because I’ll eat a whole bag in 2 days. I think I need an intervention.

I looove these but I find that other really likes them or hate them. I would like to find something similar, but I haven't really found any. It's the combo of crispy, sweet and salty. Any recommendations?
Do you love or hate Smash?

Got these at Dollar Tree 💵 🌳 I was super excited because I love banana flavored anything and most candies are chocolate. I’m not a fan of any chocolate unless it is with something else like caramel , nougat , toffee , etc .

When opening the candies , they were very poorly formed . Maybe mine was a bad batch ?¿ but compared to the chocolate tootsie rolls , they were messy, hard to unwrap and even grab since it was not properly formed …🫠

The banana taste was very plastic , I would definitely have preferred the banana taste from Laffy Taffy . I couldn’t even finish more than 3 pieces before I spit it out and tossed the entire bag 🥴

I would give it a 0 out of 10 🚫🤢

Has anyone else tried these ? What were your thoughts ? 💭

Something about the giant ones are just better. I’m addicted. The cookie pieces seem bigger and there’s more of them.

Snoopy Pez and Rock Candy on the other side

I wish they still made these. I remember when I was really young, like kindergarten and 1st grade Young I’d walk down to the corner store and they’d give me these for a penny.

I got inspired by the people here who like candy corn + salted peanuts, and ended up with this Halloween trail mix. What do you think?

A little while ago another redditor made a post about how so many of us were sleeping on this classic Mexican candy. I feel like I'm in an internal debt to this redditor. Made a trip down to the closest Mexican grocery store (about an hour drive from me) I don't regret it at all. I'll be eating these for the rest of my life! It's a perfect blend of great tarty mango a little bit of spice and general candy sweetness! If you haven't tried this yet do yourself a favor and pick up a bunch.

Apologize in advance for my candy folding.

Anybody tried these on for size? I’m pretty sure it’s the Swedish Fish chews but in the Canadian (and British maybe?) market.

I’d say they’re okay. Nothing to write home about, but I don’t find them chemically like people were saying about the Swedish Fish ones.

There’s Lemon, Red Raspberry, Blue Raspberry, and Lime. The blue ones are the best in the bag.

My local Casey's was the only place that has these but my father lived in a separate town and he found these. He got all of their avaliable stock, which was 7! I love that guy!
