Laffy Taffy Bulk Candy

We all know that candy lovers can be a fickle lot and resistant to change especially when it affects a tried and true candy favorite

We  have been informed of the following , from the good folk’s at Nestles, makers of many of America’s favorite sweets that two of their best selling bulk candy items are changing their product mix.

Nerds Bulk will be changing their mix to include Strawberry which will be replacing Apple – Coated Watermelon.  The good news is that Lemonade Wild Cherry will continue

Laffy Taffy will also be changing their flavors. Grape and Strawberry didn’t make the cut and the new mix will consist exclusively of Apple, Banana and Cherry

We hope that this information will sweeten your day and, hopefully, allow you to rest easier…

As Bob Dylan once sang, “time’s they are a changin’….”

Brach's Malted Milk Balls aka Brach's Malts

Brach’s Malted Milk Balls aka Brach’s Malts have been a favorite of candy lovers for many years. The candy was made with delicious rich milk chocolate and had a crunchy malt center.

In recent months, the taste has changed and many think that it has not been for the better.

We contacted Customer Service at Brach’s Candy (a subsidiary of Farley’s & Sathers) and they graciously replied as follows:

“Farley’s & Sathers made an adjustment to this product formula. We will be evaluating consumer reactions and responses to the changes in this product on a weekly basis in an effort to determine consumer impact. Your feedback is important to us, and the information you provided will be considered as we review and evaluate the changes to this item…”

If sales are an indication, consumers do not like the new formula…

As the old saying goes, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it…”
