"Life Savers"

Hey yoooo! I hope you are doing good. I started to create and search for presents for my friends & host-family. I also found some cute little things for my Russian family and friends. I am a sweet-tooth  and that's why I put in my package something tasty...

It is "Life Savers" hard candies! Let me explain something: they are actually in the shape of life savers, which you can see on the beach or on a boat. But these "Life Savers" are even better - they are yummy!!! Let's go to the store and buy a whole pack of these candies. You can find all kinds of them: fruit and fruit punch, mint and pina colada....You can also find a special holiday mix, which consists of cherry, apple and peppermint flavored candies. Great, rich taste combine with a fun shape! How cool, is it not?! Brand "Life Savers" also makes "Life Savers Gummies" for people, who like to treat their stomach!

This post is unusual. I do not want to describe to you how good or bad these candies are. I just want to say that I sent you some...So, you decide. My package to you also include some kinds of candies, which I have described before. I'm so excited! See you! (Photos are from the Internet)

"Caramel Apple Pops"

Hey everyone! Christmas is coming in America! But I do not want to take a break and I'm still searching for something tasty and interesting for you (and for me, of course!:). I really want to show you all kind of delicious candies and desserts, which I have tried yet, but... enough is a good as a feast. So, for this post I found something special for you, guys!

I think that most famous and popular dessert in the US (besides brawny & crispy bars) is caramel apple. This delicious dish is a paradise for your taste and stomach! And now this treat can be easily enjoyed, because we have the "Caramel Apple Pops"! It is a hard candy in real caramel coat! How adorable!!!

Let's unwrap it and look inside! You can enjoy a sweet smell of caramel and sour smell of green apple lollipop. After the caramel melts in your mouth and becomes soft, you can try to bite a piece of it. It is not easy - it stretches; it is amazing! The fantastic taste of caramel is replaced by the sour taste of apple lollipop. You know, it actually tastes like a green apple! Fresh and sour! The changing tastes leaves an unusual post taste in your mouth, this is funny! I noticed, that each "Caramel Apple Pop" could consist of different amount of caramel and hard candy; it means every time you have one it is different and it leaves a different post taste: more sweet or more sour. The one thing, which I do not like in this candy is one piece is enough for a day, I cannot eat more than one! :)

 P.S. I still have a problems with a flash-drive... Photo were taken form the Internet.

"Smarties" vs. "SweeTarts"

Hey! I hope you're doing good. The weather in MN is getting colder, but I'm still trying new candies and will show it to you!

Today I compare two (OMG, 2!!!) of the same kinds of candies but from different brands. Here are they: "Smarties" and "SweeTarts" by Wonka. First of all, they caught my attention with their unusual form. You think that it is a long candy. But no! There are small colored tablets in one pack! Awesome! Now I will talk about each one.

The "Smarties" pack consists of 15 light-colored tablets. When you put a couple of them in your mouth you cannot feel anything. But then, when it starts to melt, you taste a sweet flavor. After that it turns a little bit sour and you feel tiny particles of "Smarties" on your tongue. I do not have enough patience to wait for it all to melt, so, I just bite it. It is interesting, because I feel more sour taste.

"SweeTarts" by Wonka consist of 13 bright-colored hard tablets. As soon as you taste it you can feel sour and astringent flavor in one and the same time. Like in Chinese cuisine (just kidding!:).  And this taste lasts a long timje. Try to keep it in your mouth without biting and you will feel big particles and more sweet taste.

 I should say that "SweeTarts" are a little bit harder than "Smarties" but it does not make their taste worse. Enjoy it!

P.S. I'm sorry, I have a problems with my flash-drive. These photo are from Internet.

"Dubble Bubble" Gum

I have lived here since August; my gastronomical experiences were different. The thing, which I tried first was a gum. Yes, just gum. I said to my host-mom: "The Dubble Bubble is the best fruit gum I've ever tried".

"Dubble Bubble" looks like candy. When you unwrap it you can feel amazing smell of fruits: watermelon, grape, apple or "special" original. Whatever taste you like. Firts, it is kind a hard to chew it. But when the gum becomes soft, you can enjoy it's taste.

I remember great gums from my childhood with cute names "Love is..." I enjoyed different tastes of it and liked to make big bubbles from it. When I was 7 this thing disappeared. Yeah, sad... But now my child's memories can come back. With "Dubble Bubble" I can make the biggest bubbles ever! It is sad, that taste of gum does not remain for a long time, but you always can take another one!


"Bubble Dubble" brand also provide flavored gum-balls. They also have wide range of fruit tastes, but for my opinion it is really hard to chew it. You should wait for melting. That's why I prefer usual "Dubble Bubble" gum with original taste.
