Candy Experience – January 2022 Box: Original Box

The Original Box includes 6 bags of candy as well as a few throw-in tootsie roll candies. The candy is packaged in reusable heat-sealed ziplock pouches that keep it fresh until you are ready to enjoy them!

Inside you will also receive a printed list with a detailed description of each candy in your box. You can also see the candies that are included in the other subscription boxes. The Personal Box inclusions are the first 4 candies, the Original Box inclusions are the first 6 candies, and the Large Box (Love of Candy Box) inclusions are all 9 candies listed! I love this environmentally friendly option to use one printout paper for all subscription boxes, however, seeing the Smooth Chillies candy sure made me wish those were in my box. 🙂

On the flip side of the paper are the Nutritional Facts for each of the corresponding candies. I love this idea, however, do I really want to know how many calories or sugar there is in my candy?!

Midnight Mints

Delicate layers of chocolate and mint make this indulgent candy a delicious treat that everyone will enjoy. These are the perfect late-night snack as the name suggests!

These are absolutely delicious! I couldn’t resist sampling a few and then that few turned into half the bag. Let’s just say no one else in my family even knew these came in the candy box other than the photographic evidence in this review. They had a subtle mint chocolate flavor. The perfect smooth combination that led me to keep wanting more, they were that good!!!

Grape Lunars 

The delicious grape sugar beads on the outside are packed with flavour, leading to a sweet and delightful grape jelly centre that will definitely leave you wanting more!

This was a huge hit for the kids! It started off with a rich grape smell, the taste not as grape flavoured. The sweet sugar beads combined with a jelly centre were a fun combination for the kids. In their words “it was like eating two candies in one!”

Pastel Licorices

These bright coloured candy-shelled licorice pieces are a blast from the past. The multicoloured shells cover a desirable sweet black licorice inside. With each bite, you’ll remember why you loved them so much before.

These are a great snacking candy that I had forgotten about since I was a child going to my neighbourhood corner store. Now I can share my childhood memories with my licorice-loving daughter. Thank you for a fun blast from the past!

Rainbow Delight

Known for their superior quality, these gummies, made in Spain are a unique mixture of sour and sweet. The sticks are covered in a tart sugar that leads into a bursting sweet and creamy centre that will excite your tastebuds! Who wouldn’t enjoy a colourful, bite-sized rainbow?

There were mixed reviews of these in our family. However, I’m sure the kid who didn’t enjoy them will happily take more in a heartbeat! I personally love the texture and flavour! They have just the right amount of chewy, but not gummy outside and a marshmallow-like centre with a sweet and slightly sour taste, one might even see similarities to bubble gum?! Once I started eating them, I can’t stop!

Tropical Punch Taffy Town

Taffy Town definitely doesn’t disappoint when it comes to creating the best Salt Water Taffy in the world! Their taffy is the perfect combination of soft and chewy. This tropical flavour will remind you of a day on the beach with the warm blue water at your side. 

Everyone agreed this is the best Salt Water Taffy we have ever had. I was soft and chewy with a mild sweet fruity taste.

White Chocolate Almond Bark (*Not the advertised: Marshmallow Foam Bananas)

White chocolate has always been a favorite of mine and this one did not disappoint! It was creamy and sweet with yummy whole almonds throughout. I had to stop myself from eating the whole bag.

Throw-in Candy –  Tootsie Rolls

Verdict:

This Candy Experience box won’t last too long in our house! If you are a huge candy fan, like me, then this is the box you need to get! Candy is delivered to your door each month from a Canadian company, it doesn’t get much better than that! Now, the only problem is that as my kids are getting older they also love their sweets, so I have to share (well…sometimes). With our Candy Experience box, I didn’t mind sharing a little as this box had 6 bags of candy and a great variety of different types of candies: Milk Chocolate, White Chocolate, Licorice, Taffy, and two fruity gummies varieties. It’s really hard to say which is the favorite amongst our family as everyone prefers something with a little different texture and taste. One loves the Rainbow Delight, another loves the Grape Lunar, another loves the Salty Water Taffy and I have enjoyed pretty much everyone depending on what sweets I’m craving, however, those Midnight Mints went down way too fast, I only wish there were more…
