Bali's Best Coffee Candy

May 20, 2008

gourmetretailer/photos/stylus/27219-20080501_hm_coffeecandy.jpg
This is a new candy with a nice, sophisticated flavor -- in fact, it doesn't really taste like candy. It has a natural coffee flavor which is pleasing for all the coffee lovers out there -- a candy for the adult palate. The first thing we noticed about this candy is that it is a product of Indonesia and the second is that cane sugar is the first ingredient -- not the usual high-fructose corn syrup. It would be really great to see how much caffeine content there is in a serving from the coffee extract which is giving the candy its rich coffee, instead of sugar, taste (which we love!). It would also be great to see this product in a resealable bag -- although each piece is individually wrapped, we think it would be a nice touch. Retails for $2.19–$2.95/5.3 oz.
