Pop Rocks Candy Cane

Sometimes you need a little explosion in your life.
And you can choose to make your own dynamite.
Which will probably land you in a padded cell.
And nobody wants that during the holidays.
Or you can turn to Pop Rocks.
I am gonna choose the latter.



And lo and behold, I found a Christmas themed version.
These are candy cane flavoured Pop Rocks.
And these are just what I need to get that Christmas jolt.
The packaging is perfect. It manages to be Pop Rocks and Christmas at the same time.
With a lovely red background and a nice green font.
With some Christmas trees and holly.
This packaging screams Christmas.



They have a faint smell of peppermint.
A little to faint for my tastes. I wanted more.
The taste is also somewhat dissapointing.
Theres is a very faint taste of peppermint.
Other than that, they just taste sweet.
The popping/explosion is the good part.
It is really powerfull and my mouth feels like an excavated cave.

Hershey's Candy Cane Bar

Here we have the latest Christmas chocolate bar from Hershey's.
This is a white mint chocolate bar with bits of candy cane.
And it is very holly and jolly.
The packaging is very nice.
A plain snow white color with candy cane trimmings.
Simple, but yet, so elegant.



Upon opening the package, you are greeted with a very nice scent.
It is like the scent you get from an actual candy cane.
But in turbo mode. It is very lovely.
I think you could almost use it as a scented candle.



The flavor is very minty and the white chocolate is rich.
While the bits of candy cane are crunchy and makes the whole thing so much better.
Forget about putting out some milk and cookies for Santa.
This chocolate bar is the thing this year.
Santa will thank you with bigger and better presents.

Christmas Soaps

Gunry makes soaps with lots of different scents.
This christmas, they have outdone themselves and given us three different christmas soaps!
They come in Candy Cane, Orange/Carnation and Gingerbread.

Candy Cane



This soap is white.
It would have been a lot nicer if it would have been striped white/red, but i do not know if that is even possible.
The art on the packaging is very nice.
Bells, some christmas tree branches, a candy cane and some candy cane caramels.
It has a nice minty candy cane scent.

Orange/Carnation



I do not know if the practice of putting carnation in oranges is very big outside of Sweden, but here it is.
When you are done, you hang the orange/carnation/abomination in a window and it gives of a pleasant scent.
The packaging on this soap is also nice.
With a orange/carnation/combination and some snowflakes.
The scent was unfortunately a letdown.
It smells like regular orange soap.

Gingerbread



Last but not least we have the gingerbread scented soap.
The box has some mistletoe and snowflakes.
And of course a gingerb... Wait, is that the Gingerbread man from Shrek?
It sure looks like it.
That is kind o weird, but he is a gingerbread man so lets roll with it.
The soap itself is a nice shade of brown.
It has a smell of baked goods.
Not so much of gingerbread, maybey a little.

I can not decide which soap is the winner.
The Candy Cane has the best scent but the gingerbread has the best colour and packaging.
I guess it is a tie.

Hershey's Kisses Candy Cane

Hershey's Kisses are individually wrapped chocolate candy with different flavours and fillings.
This christmas, the good folks at Nestlé has brought us candy cane flavoured kisses.
I think everything should be candy cane flavoured...



First of all, the packaging.
It is great. It is christmasy.
It is read and white... The official candy cane colours as well as christmas colours.
There is a light snowfall soon to cover the giant kisses on the packaging.



And that takes me to the kisses.
The foil wrapping is lovely.
Silver, with red candy canes.
And the little text message that is included with every kiss says candy cane.



On to the candy, that is also nice, with its red and white stripes.
I do not know if it is just me, but i think the inside of the bag smells a lot more of candy cane than the candy.
The candy has a nice minty candy cane taste which is just right.
It also has small clusters of candy cane inside making it a somwehat crunchy experience to eat them.
All in all this raised my christmas spirit a lot.

Oreos Candy Cane [Limited Edition]

A christmas version of the famous Oreo? Limited Edition? Rad!
Like in many christmas versions, the box is just awesome.
Theres so much christmas going on.
If you look at the cake itself, there's an imprint of a snowflake.
And the cream inside is red and white.
They really put some effort into making this as christmasy as possible.





Smells a lot lika minty candy cane. Like it should, of course.
They taste like you crushed a candy cane between two Oreo cakes.
In other wors, really good. It's nice and crispy too.
