Trolli Sour Brite Blasts

I find it hard to write an inspired review for any Trolli candy. They have been making consistently good candy for a long time, but just nothing that ever blows me away. Their famous Worms are good enough, but they don’t crack my list of favorite candies and they aren’t something I often seek out. All that being said, Sour Brite Blasts  are the closest I’ve come to being genuinely impressed with a Trolli candy

The pack doesn’t have too much substance (meaning they skimp a little on the number of pieces), but that is right around where my complaints end. I suppose I should start by explaining the name. The candy is a cube-shaped gummy with insides are filled with a different flavored “juice”. So when you bite into the candy the juices/gel blasts out – get it? The juices are where the candy gets a lot of its sour from, as the sugar coating falls off pretty easily and it’s pretty thin to begin with. The ratio of blast to gummy is reasonable too. They aren’t overfilled but some pieces could definitely use a little more juice.

The flavors are as follows:

• Strawberry-Mango
• Apple-Watermelon
• Cherry-Lime
• Raspberry-Lemon

All of them are amazing. Credit to Trolli for finding some good and unique pairings here, especially Apple Watermelon. That one is a stand out! The color of the candies really pop too. The fact that they are bright cubes makes them look like Legos; I’m going to try and build a sour house with them next time.

Give them a try and let me know what you think. I don’t imagine this will be anyone’s favorite candy, but it will certainly make a good road trip snack for sour lovers. They are not too messy and the flavors are amazing. If you see them, swoop them up!
