Since I've never turned down a bougie brunch in my GD life and candy corn is one of my top Halloween treats*, I knew I had to get a bag (or two, oops) ASAP.
When I first opened the bag, I was slapped in the face with the most saccharine maple syrup smell that — hours later — I still cannot shake.
Inside these bad boys are lil' candy corns in three brunchy flavors: chocolate chip pancakes, waffles and strawberry, and French toast and maple syrup.
I tried the chocolate chip pancakes first because, well, hi/duh/obvs. Upon first bite, I was hit with the traditional candy corn taste, but then the pancake batter and "chocolate" (it's artificial as hell) started to take over in an almost offensive way.
The waffles and strawberry were up next, and whew, this one put me over the edge. It tasted like a lame-ass version of strawberry milk. But, like, solid. And like it was having a mid-life crisis in my mouth because it didn't know what the hell it wanted to be.
Finally, it was French toast time. IDK if I was just on a sugar high, but I LOVED THIS ONE. It's literally just sugar with a maple syrup taste. That's it. Nothing else. *kisses fingertips* Perfection.
All in all, these suckers are hella intense, and you can probably only withstand a small handful before you're like, "I feel like a disgusting gross freak, goodbye."
They're worth buying if you fuck with candy corn and want to try something new and sort-of-not-that shitty. But, um, next season can we have some mimosa-flavored candy? Thanksss.
