Maynards Spooky Gums (Ocado) By @Cinabar

Maynards Spooky Gums


Here we have Maynards Spooky Gums, a Halloween twist on the more usual Wine Gums. These sweets come in Halloween shapes and darker colours, making them look suitably spooky. I could spot worms, a coffin and a gravestone, but there was also something rectangular that I couldn't quite identify. Feel free to leave a comment if you know what it is! The sweets look cool, though, and the packaging is lovely and perfectly themed for Halloween.

I gave them a try and was pleased to find that the flavours are lovely and fruity, with plenty of flavour. Raspberry and blackcurrant are my favourites, both having that lovely full-on fruity taste that makes Wine Gums such a good sweet. The texture is just like regular Wine Gums, with a firm, satisfying chew that thankfully isn't sticky.

These are a fun Halloween twist on a classic sweet, with the same fruity flavours and chewy texture that make Wine Gums so popular. They're perfect for sharing during a Halloween movie, although I might have to solve the mystery of that rectangular sweet before the credits roll!

  1. Is it a Which's spelling book?
    Or a Witches' book of spells?

  2. I think the rectangle is supposed to be a spell book - looks like a very faint design of the open pages in your photo.
