We all know and love Love Hearts sweets, so spotting these fab large Squashies versions definitely caught my eye. Each piece still comes stamped with a little word or picture, which keeps that classic charm. Inside the bag you get six different flavours to try.
Is it just me, or does the picture on the bag make the white sweet in the top right look pale blue?
Also, a small gripe. The ingredients are printed in white on a pale background, which is not exactly the easiest to read when you are standing in a service station with dodgy lighting.
Moving on to the sweets themselves. Each one is nicely chewy with a soft texture that slowly dissolves as you keep nibbling. There is a proper little flavour burst from each colour too. Here is how they stack up.
- Green - Lime. Quite citrusy and fairly strong. A fresh, zingy taste that wakes your taste buds up.
- White - Pineapple. Soft and fruity. Definitely pineapple, but on the delicate side.
- Dark red - Blackcurrant. So yummy. Very fruity and nicely strong. We absolutely need more blackcurrant sweets in the world.
- Yellow - Lemon. Sweet and fruity lemon. Thankfully more pleasant and mellow rather than sharp.
- Orange - Orange. Mellow and sweet with a nice orange flavour that is easy to enjoy.
- Pink - Cherry. Not overly cherry, but there is a nice acidic burst of fruity flavour that keeps things interesting.
I definitely preferred the stronger flavours. Honestly, I would happily demolish a whole bag of just the blackcurrant ones.
