Heaven arrived in my mailbox! Inside the box was candy…lots of candy!

I am huge into candy…most particular gummy candies! And let me tell you…this box did not disappoint!

This is the first launch month for Candy.ca and I think they did a really great job kicking it off with a bang of amazing candy!

The packing looked very professional creating continuity throughout the box and even on candy.ca. I loved the special handwritten note inside the lid of the box. I understand how time consuming it is, that really makes me appreciate the note even more.

Each Candy Box comes with an information card outlining each candy in your box for that month, complete with nutritional facts and even some fun candy facts and trivia.

Jelly Belly Very Cherry

One of the candies I was most excited for… a bag full of only red jelly belly’s! No more sorting through to find the yummy jelly bellies only to get the popcorn jelly belly 🙁  These are so delicious, I can hardly stop eating!

Sour Power Berry/Blue Belts

My husband just discovered these sour sugar candies and he loves them! He has a lot more control than me and only eats one or two at a time.

Albanese Red Raspberry Gummi Bears

Yum! Another favorite! How did they know!? A whole bag of red gummi bears. These gummi bears are a bit bigger than normal gummi bears and so delicious! I may have only shared one or two in the whole bag.

Sour Pumpkins

A festive sour and soft gummy Halloween pumpkin candy! I love the fun Halloween spirit this candy brought to my box. These were not my favorite candies in the box, nevertheless, I appreciate the fun they bring and, of course, I will eat them all up…okay, maybe I can share a few with my daughters.

Hot Tamales

A classic, chewy cinnamon flavoured candy. If you are a hot cinnamon candy lover, I’m sure this was a hit for you. I do enjoy these occasionally…perhaps I associate them as a Valentine’s Day candy, and I didn’t really enjoy them in my box yet. Don’t get me wrong, I will eat them, just not until everything else is done.

Albanese Peach Rings

I’ve had peach rings similar to this before…but not nearly as soft and peachy! I love most gummi candies but as far as my favorite out of this box I would say these were somewhere in the middle. I love eating them but don’t mind sharing a few with my family and friends.

Taffy Town Salt Water Taffy Mix

Taffy Town as been in business for over 100 years…people must love their Salt Water Taffy! My husband and myself are not huge fans of salt water taffy, my kids, however, love eating these! Win-win for everyone! They love picking the fun colours and discovering the mystery of which flavour they got.

Verdict: As Candy.ca’s first launch month box, I thought the candies in this box were amazing and they did a great job with the packaging and branding! There was a good variety of flavours, including something for everyone, weather your favorite is soft, chewy, sweet, sour, or spicy. I was so surprised that some of my favorite candies were included in this box, it is hard for me to not eat them all in one sitting. It was a nice treat to get such delicious candy delivered to my door! I do hope that they manage to find a way to get the the price of the box down and the shipping included in the price. But for the true candy lover or gift giver the price may not be a concern. Either way it’s a great way to treat your sweet with a monthly box of candy to their door!

What did you think of Candy.ca’s first monthly candy box?
