Haribo Gold Bears & The History of Gummy Bears!
The History of Haribo Gold Bears The timeless classic: gummy bears. One of the most popular candies in the world, it’s kind of odd when you really start thinking about it. Why do we eat bears in the first place? Even something like Swedish Fish makes more sense because humans DO eat fish. We certainly…
Maoam Pinballs: A Great Cheap Treat? [Review]
For today’s review, I will be taking a look at a candy I see all around Ireland: Maoam Pinballs. Apparently, they are just as common around the UK as well, though these are definitely not as popular as their Stripes. At first, I was a bit nervous about this candy, as the Stripes were out…
New Haribo Gold Bears: Apple, Watermelon and Cherry
Haribo Gummy Bears may have just got a whole lot more interesting… Haribo Gummy Bears are already some of the best out there. The only thing that could make them better is adding a new flavor, which is seemingly what they are hinting at with a new contest. Starting at the beginning of the New Year, Haribo –…

Google translate tells me that?B?rchen-P?rchen means Bear Couple….
Haribo – Orangina Pik [Review]
Today and Friday, I’ll review some Haribo gummies that I bought while in Switzerland. First up is Orangina P!k. I know Orangina is a fizzy orange drink that’s available in Europe. No idea what the P!k means (and why it’s not a Pik). Haribo, of course, is a candy brand that is found all over…
Haribo Smurfs [Review]
I once bought Haribo Smurfs waaay back in 2009, when I was on vacation in France. There, they were Haribo Schtroumpfs, which was fun to say. I’m pretty sure I drove my boyfriend crazy going, “Schtroumpfs schtroumpfs schtroumpfs” for a good chunk of that trip. While they’ve been popular in Europe for a while, Haribo…
