Hello there!

I'm pretty sure no kid from the 90s grew up without devouring Korovki candies.

When I recently received a New Year's candy gift from work, meant for my kid, I was surprised to find Korovki inside.

I haven't seen them in stores for a long time, but they still bring back memories.

As a kid, Rot Front candies were a rare treat for our table, but Korovki were more frequent visitors, right alongside Moskvichki or Romashki.

Nowadays, kids aren't surprised by these candies, and I always smile when I find them in sweet gifts from the past - they're way tastier than those unknown, trans-fat-filled imitations.

Korovki from the Rot Front factory immediately caught my eye because I remember them exactly like that.

There were also Korovki in paper wrappers, which were nice too, but I haven't seen them in stores for a long time.

Korovki were loved because they lasted so well - they had this gooey, thick, caramel-like filling that you could stretch like cheese on a freshly made pizza.

Who remembers these Korovki?...

And what happened to them......

Here's a modern Korovka from our gift.

They were piled high!

Here they are!

Ingredients:

Sugar, sweetened condensed milk, drinking water, corn syrup, butter, invertase stabilizer, antioxidant – ascorbic acid. Nutritional value per 100g of product, g: protein 3.0; fat 4.5; carbohydrates 82.0. Energy value: 360 kcal

Korovka Rott Front is available at a reasonable price - approximately 500 rubles per 1 kg.

You can buy it almost everywhere.

The wrapper brings back nostalgic memories, though not as much as the paper wrapper with an extra wrapper inside, which always stuck to the Korovka.

And what's inside?...

It looks the same as before.

It smells like sweetened condensed milk.

And what's inside?... The eternal intrigue was - would it be chewy or dry?

Oh...

Sadly, it's dry.

Why is that?

I'm genuinely stumped.

I haven't seen those old Korovkas that were soft and chewy for years...

It's a shame! I loved them.

Sadly, the dry ones are what I remember, and I didn't want to eat them. There's nothing interesting about them.

Like wafers.

And now, out of the whole gift, not a single chewy one. I guess I wasn't lucky!

These candies are pretty standard. The ingredients are decent, but they're a bit too sweet for my taste - they're better suited to having with tea.

I'd give them a four-star rating because they're definitely worth trying!

They're way more enjoyable than the dry ones.

I used to think these candies were a sign of luxury when I was a kid - after that, it was only Golden Fero! They were the first thing I devoured from my birthday gift.

I've never been so misled by a product in a long time - or maybe it's just the latest Asian import in Fix Price, which promised marshmallows but turned out to be something entirely different.

I found these candies for 250 rubles, and they're absolutely mind-blowing - they remind me of the Kinder and Lindor collaboration! They're the best I've come across in a long time!
