Marabou Crunchy Corn



This flavour is new in Sweden for the 2012 autum.
Crunchy Corn could be a thanksgiving flavour?
maybe it is more of a halloween flavour, but halloween is over.
So we will have to make do with this flavour for thanksgiving.

This is a milk chocolate based bar filled with roasted crunchy corn.
Marabou used to have a chocolate bar called Amigo.
It was a milk chocolate bar filled with crunched corn chips.
I really liked that one. Will this live up to its predecessor?

Now, I do not really like roasted corn.
I think it builds up in your mouth and the aftertaste is weird.
But combined with chocolate?



It has a regular smell of Marabou chocolate.
By which I mean, it smells like chocolate, but sweeter.
There is also a secondary smell of corn.
The smell is, well, not that pleasing.

Maybey the flavour will take home the price?
Or maybe not...
I was completely sold when it comes to the Amigo version.
But here? The flavours does not mix, but then again they do.
It is like eating something good and bad at the same time.
The chocolate is good.
And the corn is good (well kinda, sometimes).
And the chocolate and the corn together is bad (but sometimes good).
You can tell I am not really clear what I think about it.

Have a great thanksgiving!

  1. Hej !!
    I live in France but after a trip to Sweden we discovered Crunchy Corn AND it was so good. But unfortunately we didn't try it right away (we could have buy more), but after, when we were in France. Do you know where we can buy some online ? We tried to look on some website but it seems like it is a special product not on sale everywhere.
    Thanks for helping us !!
    Tack

  3. Hej!
    Great that you liked your trip to Sweden.
    Crunchy Corn is, like you speculated, a special product.
    The only non-Swedish online shop I found was this, but I do not know if it ships to France:

    I also found these online shops that have other products from Marabou. Maybey you could ask them if they could start selling Crunchy Corn?
