Sweet Treats with a Few Hiccups Review

Sweet Treats with a Few Hiccups

summarizeEditor's Summary

These sweet treats were a mixed bag for me. The price was a steal at 59 rubles for 90 grams, but the aroma wasn't quite what I expected. The packaging is straightforward and easy to use, but the ingredients list could be more detailed. The candies themselves are tasty, if a bit too sweet. Worth every penny if you're craving something sweet, but not a game changer for me.

Sticking to my diet this summer was no easy feat. I craved all the usual suspects: ice cream, cakes, and BBQs. But with fall rolling in, I'm back on track. To prepare myself, I started with some sweet treats. I found these candies online, and the price was surprisingly affordable - 59 rubles for 90 grams.

The packaging is straightforward and no-frills, which I like. It's just the essentials.

On the back, there's all the necessary info, thanks to the seller's thoughtful touch. That's a nice detail. Let's take a closer look at the ingredients.

dates, cornstarch, dried prunes, glaze (sugar, lauric type cocoa butter substitute, cocoa powder, soy lecithin, flavorings), acidity regulator (citric acid), thickener (carboxymethylcellulose), preservative (sodium sorbate), flavoring.

Notice the flavoring - it's listed as 'Conjak' on the manufacturer's website. I'm not sure what kind of vibe they're going for with that unusual name.

Inside the pack, you'll find 7 candies. When I opened the package, the strong smell of conjak hit me right in the face. It was a bit jarring at first, but the aroma faded away after a few hours.

The candy itself is small, weighing 13 grams, which translates to 48 calories, 0.26 grams of protein, 0.78 grams of fat, and 9.75 grams of carbs.

When you unwrap the individual wrapper, you'll catch the scent of prunes and a hint of alcohol. The candy is coated with a thin layer of milk chocolate, which has a slightly soapy taste. The filling is a prune-date paste. The combination is sweet, but if you don't have anything to drink with it, it can be overpowering. On the plus side, one candy is enough to satisfy your sweet tooth. There are no unpleasant aftertastes or mouthfeel. This dessert left me with mixed feelings. I can nitpick the ingredients, the aroma, and the taste, but somehow, it still tastes edible. I probably won't be buying these again, and I wouldn't recommend them as a must-try.
