Lovely Candy Company - Review and Giveaway

I received products for review from Lovely Candy Company.  The opinions within this post are of my own and I was not influenced in any way.  Please do your own research before purchasing products or using services.  Your opinions and results may differ.

Sometimes I get excited when I find out about new brands or companies that I hadn't known about before.  One of those times was recently with Lovely Candy Company.  

The Lovely Candy Company was founded in 2013, making it fairly new.  It started out with just licorice but has since expanded with other treats.  The candies contain no high fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, flavors or Trans fats.  In addition, they are natural and/or non-GMO, gluten-free.  

I know that a lot of people have adverse reactions to gluten and are cutting it from their diet. There's also those that have food allergies.  That's not the case with anyone in my family. With that said, we are not against consuming gluten-free or natural foods if we like the taste of them. 

The holidays are a time of sharing love, sometimes by the gifting or enjoying of sweets. The experts at The Lovely Candy Company are helping to spread the “Love-ly” and mark the arrival of the season with their line of delicious Consciously Crafted® candies – both at retail and online. The company has lately included two products to their rapidly growing line - Honey Gummy Bears™ and Dark Chocolate Honey Patties.

The new Honey Gummies are the first gummy candy that lists honey as its primary ingredient. They contain no gelatin and are peanut free. The gummies are available in assorted fruit and sour berry flavors and come in six ounce packages that retail for $4.99.  Each bag of Honey Gummies is resealable.  I always consider that an added perk.  The Honey Gummy Fruit Bears come in assorted flavors of cherry, lemon, apple, and orange to a bag and the Honey Gummy Sour Bears are cherry, strawberry, and blue raspberry flavors with a sugar coating.  Although they had a sour taste to them, it wasn't so extreme that my face would pucker up each time I ate one.  My teens and I have been eating them by the handfuls.  The bears are chewy and taste fresh.  Don't let the fact that they're made with honey hold you back.  I've never had gummies with honey before but I sure do like these!

The new Dark Chocolate Honey Patties are sweetened with, well, honey and contain only a few ingredients.  The three available flavors are:
§ Dark Chocolate Honey Truffles
§ Dark Chocolate Honey Truffles with Mint
§ Dark Chocolate Honey Truffles with Raspberry

Although I haven't tried the mint flavor, I did try the other two.  I'm not quite sure the what's or why's of each bag being different, but the Dark Chocolate Honey Truffles with Raspberry were individually wrapped and placed loosely in the bag.  The Dark Chocolate Honey Truffles were packaged up like a candy bar, with individually wrapped patties inside.  I personally liked the latter way of packaging better but it honestly doesn't make much of a difference to me as long as what's inside tastes good.  And, they sure did!   The dark chocolate coating with the thin, creamy middle is quite tasteful.

Food allergies shouldn’t limit your meal choices, no matter the season.  And that's why you should consider Lovely Candy Company to satisfy your sweet tooth.
