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.

    1. I totally agree! I've just picked up some Chamallows Minis, perfect for hot chocolate now the weather is getting colder!

    1. Thanks Erin! :) I'm sorry, I don't have the packet anymore, but I would guess they aren't judging by the texture?! I wouldn't stake my life on it though, so here's hoping! (a brief check online hasn't helped clear up the issue I'm afraid)
