Glico Almond Caramel グリコアーモンドキャラメル
Last November I reviewed Glico Caramel Hearts and now I'm back with another version - Almond Caramel Hearts.
This is an 82 gram pack of 22 individually wrapped caramel hearts with small bits of almond embedded in them.
As I didn't really like the original Glico caramels I didn't hold up much hope for these.
I'm happy to say I was pleasantly surprised.
The caramel is the same shape and size as the original flavour. The difference with these is that they are very soft on the outside and start to melt immediately after I put it in my mouth. The original version was chewy but the almond caramel is less sticky and more pliable. It also has more of a caramel flavour and texture. While chewing the caramel I noticed quite a fudge-like texture too.
The almond is not overpowering, the bits are small enough so they give a hint of roasted almond without overshadowing the caramel experience. If you suck on the caramel rather than chewing it, you tend to get more of the almond flavour.
I'm pleased to note there is nothing that tastes like coconut or lemon peel in these!
I really enjoyed these and if I would definitely recommend them! :)
