Sarah's Candy FactoryThe Nutty Fruit House Fruit Slice Jelly Wedge Gummy Candy (Assorted, 5 Pound, Pack of 1)

Truly delicious, and a great deal for the price I paid at the time. I have adored Fruit Slices since I was a kid, but I hadn't had them in years. My local grocery was out for almost a month, and Sarah's Candy Factory came to the rescue!I might have to order another bag to keep on hand ;)

I purchased a competitor recently and was deeply disappointed. So stale and hard to chew. But not these!! So fresh and fruity they melt in your mouth! I recommend Sarah's Candy Factory Fruit Slices to everyone with a sweet tooth like mine.

Have you ever eaten Brach’s fruit slices? Do you remember it tasting pretty artificial, but it was candy so it was still good?Somehow, this brand manages to destroy whatever affinity and nostalgia you might’ve had with their crappy bulk candy. Bulk candy that really isn’t much of a deal. Your typical 10oz bag of fruit slices at your local grocer is $2. That’s $4 for 20oz. This 5lb bag (80oz) is $23. So buying 8 of those 10oz bags will not only save you money, but you’ll have a decent tasting product with you as well!Let’s break down the flavors in this bag:Grape - bitter, horrible grape flavor. Like the really cheap grape drink powder except not water-downed in any way and no dissolved sugar to mask the bitterness. The rock sugar on top is hard, does nothing for the flavor since it isn’t dissolved, and gets all over your hands.Orange - Not bad. Least worst of the bunch. Rock sugar still sucks though.Lemon/lime or yellow and green - Cheap citrus flavor, with an extra bitterness for the lime. I genuinely enjoy lime flavored things, and this has to be the worst lime-flavored anything I’ve eaten. I guarantee you they exclusively used the rind to make that flavor concentrate. The lemon is OK. Again, same issue with the rock sugar.Cherry or red - the worst of them all. Cheap flavoring and its got that mediciney flavor too. Like cherry cough syrup in candy form. Horrible. While the grape is horrid, it, at least, doesn’t make me feel physically ill and send shivers down my spine like the cherry. Maybe it’s that cough syrup trauma I have that’s triggering my reaction to this. I’d rather lick the rock sugar off this one than eat it.Save your money. Buy something higher quality or go to the grocer and buy those 10oz bags.

If I was to close my eyes, reach into the bag, grab a fruit slice and put it in my mouth, I would rate a 5. The freshness and taste is good. My issue, some of the candy was smashed/deformed and about 15% were only partial pieces(not a full wedge).

It was a great value compared to what is offered in stores and taste just like the candy I remembered as a child. The only drawback is I tend to eat more than I should at a time.

I’ve ordered these several time through various sellers. I enjoyed these very much and at such a great bargain. Variety was good, though I was lacking in the yellow and greens. Of course, my favorite. If anything, they were very sugary. More than other sellers. I know, but it’s candy. Found myself scraping the sugar off to get to the fruity taste. But they were really good!!!

Flavors are good, pleased with freshness. I’d buy again…. But not too soon. If only sugar was good for you…..

First order great, second shipment fair, third (and last) shipment hard and dried out.
