Haribo Mice



Another Haribo product I couldn’t resist!  This time, it’s the turn of Haribo Mice.  Look how adorable these little guys are...
 

I originally picked these up as they looked rather ‘marshmallowy’ and I’d hoped that the white mice might taste like milk bottles or vanilla.  In actual fact I can’t actually tell you exactly what the flavour is supposed to be, only that they are very, very sweet.  The pink and white mice tasted rather similar and a little more artificial than I’d anticipated - great for kids I imagine but I felt a little let down.  To be fair, I partly blame myself as I had built them up in my own head. 
The consistency is a little hard to describe, they’re a hybrid of gum and mallow, they’re definitely chewy!
They’re a good fun, novelty snack and if you like really sweet treats you’re on to a winner!  Plus they’re really rather cute.
 
I picked this bag up in Poundland for – you’ve guessed it - £1.

Haribo Pandas

 
 
Seriously, how could I not pick up these little guys?  Too cute!
I admit I have never quite grown out of my Haribo addiction and have no intention in doing so either. 
I was drawn to these upon a recent trip to the supermarket and quickly opened them when I got home.  The gummy panda head is vanilla flavoured and the body is blueberry.  It's the perfect combo in my mind; the sweet and the sour balance each other out very well.  Whilst they might be too sweet for some I found them incredibly moreish, in fact I rather liked to eat the head and body separately, I love the vanilla flavouring and rather enjoyed the tang of the squishy body!
I'm sure they would be even more appealing to children, and I'm even more certain I'll be picking up some more of these adorable sweets when I next see them.
I found this pack in our local Asda for the bargain price of £1.
