I bought some of the candy cane ones last year and they tasted like cough syrup. Has anyone one tried them this year?

Thanks for the review. I’ll pass. I was going to try them. 😓
I’m not a fan of the chocolate.

The candy cane ones were awful last year. I pretty much quit buying off brand candy of any kind.

The Palmers and Russel Stover chocolates are good but watch the ingredients if you have allergies bc literally two of the same product can vary depending depending on the plant they are made in but they usually taste pretty good. The candy canes etc and anything mass produced in China usually tastes awful and has no allergen control so I don’t like giving them to family bc we have some with allergies

I used the Russell Stover melt away Santas last year. I made our elf a shrinking machine. It was just a small box, gift wrapped, with a little ramp in and out, and a sign on it. The kids loved it, and I used it a couple of times. I put the big chocolate Santa’s going in and the mini ones onlineing out. You can do big and little marshmallows or the mini and big cookies (I did fudge stripes).
