Review: Kookamunga Dippers Milk Chocolate Covered Red Licorice

Taste: This resealable bag contained thick, stubby pieces of licorice fully coated in milk chocolate. The coating was so thorough that there was no external sign that the licorice was even red. I bit into my first piece and was surprised that I could barely taste any chocolate at all. Despite the presence of a generous chocolate coating, the red licorice taste dominated. As time went on, the licorice taste actually got even more intense, with even less chocolate to taste, maybe close to none. I did notice a nice hint of milk chocolate in the aftertaste. But I'm not sure the two tastes would go well together anyway. If you really like red licorice a lot, you might think these are pretty good, but it seemed a bit pointless to coat it in chocolate when we could barely taste it anyway.

Aroma: Strong fruity licorice smell.

Review: Kookamunga Dippers Milk Chocolate Covered Potato Chips

Taste: This bag contained wide-rippled potato chips partially coated in a fairly light-colored milk chocolate. Melting chocolate and stuck-togeteher chips is often a risk for chocolate-covered potato chips. We didn't go out of our way to test temperature-test these chips, but it still became an issue. It was clear that NutHeads Chocolate knew about the heat issues, as they included a cooling pack in the shipping box for these. By the time we got it, nearly all of the chips were stuck together. (The box had been delivered to a shaded area on a day with temperatures in the low 80's.) Even stuck together, we were able to pull chips off and eat them. Most chips seemed to be fully coated on one side, with the flip side large consisting of exposed potato chip, with some chocolate around the edge and in other spots. The taste was pretty good, but the chocolate had a very melty feel, and it ended up being fairly messy to eat. Still, the mix of sweet milk chocolate and salty potato was quite nice, and the partial coating helped to make the salty potato more accessible to the taste buds. Even with the half-coating, there was still plenty of chocolate, and it was good milk chocolate. But the melt/messiness factor did take away from the overall experience. The marketing copy on the bag emphasized the resealable bag and called this an "on-the-go snack" but it seems the intended uses might be bound by some temperature restrictions.

Aroma: Very sweet milk chocolate smell.

Review: Unreal41 Candy Covered Chocolates Unjunked

Home Subscribe Buy Snacks Chipworld Snacking Video News Gallery Yum About Us

Taste: This knockoff of M&M's came in a color assortment similar to M&M's, with yellow, orange, red, blue, brown and green. But when I poured them onto a plate, they sure didn't resemble M&M's ??and not just for the lack of an "M" on each piece. Each color was very different than the corresponding M&M's color. The orange and yellow were less bright, and the green and blue were much less bright. The red was darker, and the brown ones were nearly black. I poured a bunch into my hand and popped them into my mouth to find that they tasted quite good. As with the other Unreal products, they didn't exactly remind me of the corresponding popular brand-name candy, but they weren't necessarily any worse, just different. I've had some other knockoff M&M's that were clearly inferior, but these were on par with M&M's with their own take on milk chocolate.

Aroma: Good chocolate smell. Could easily be mistaken for M&M's.
