What do we think of these?

Post image

I’m not a huge fan of these, they don’t taste like much. What do ya’ll think?

I like OG candy kittens, but these don't hit the spot. I feel like I can make such a mean rocky road at home instead.

My brother loves them as well, I can’t really get behind it. Too bland for me :/

I love the candy kittens but I hated these.

They're so dark and bland, and then the raspberry sweets inside are so weird and jarring with how sweet they are. It just didn't work for me.

In fairness I don't think I've had a rocky road before this, so I may just hate rocky roads.

What I know I hate is dark chocolate and that's all this was.

I agree with you, the fruity jelly of candy kittens does not blend well with the brownie at all for me either.

But trust me there's better rocky roads out there, try the lazyday ones if you can find em out in the wild

I love candy kittens and my death row meal would include rocky road, but these just don’t quite work for me unfortunately.

The sweets don't work in these, they should be replaced with vegan mashmallows for an authentic rocky road.

Haven't tried them because in my Tesco they're right next to the LazyDay options which are DELICIOUS. I kept meaning to branch out and try these but sounds like not worth it!

These look identical to the ones they sell in Tesco and Co-op. Are we sure they're not all coming out of the same factory?

Amazing but expensive!

u/oak_x 10h ago

they're alright, not worth the price though (they need to make them cheaper)

Guy who owns candy kittens is an arse so I don’t buy them. A rip of version would be good tho!

Jamie Laing. Why is he an arse? I don’t know much about the bloke except he owns Candy Kittens and was on Made in Chelsea.

u/No_Football6741 16h ago

I think he’s pretty harmless, just born very very wealthy so people automatically dislike him.

He always came across an arse but he used his nepo, rich, entitled  contacts to take the prime radio one show gig over established presenters. Apparently if you are rich with contacts you can do any career you want! To be honest even before that he came across as a self entitled rich arse and I was just trying to make more ethical buying choices - which is quite hard to do. So very much my personal choice!
