Halloween is seriously right around the corner, and fall already feels
like it is in the air. With the season comes all of my favorite flavors
and scents, from dead leaves to pumpkin pie. I live for the fall season.
Mass merchandise stores have already managed to put me in an early
fall mood with their Halloween set ups, displays, and best of all their
collections of Halloween candy.
One particular candy that caught my eye this weekend goes to Hershey
Kisses new limited edition fall flavors. One flavor being Pumpkin Spice,
and the other Candy Corn.
Todays focus is on Pumpkin Spice.
Packaging:
Finding Hershey Kisses Pumpkin Spice was pretty easy, it is located
right next to the other Hershey Kiss bags, only this bag has a burnt
brown coloring to it, with a cartoon drawing of a pumpkin. The bag also
clearly reads Pumpkin Spice.
Appearance:
Pumpkin Spice unwrapped from it's mini orange and black foil packaging
looks like its actually a peanut butter Hershey Kiss. It has a light
burnt orange color to it. When you bite into it, you come to an ultra
creamy white center.
Taste:
Immediately after unwrapping the candy from its foil you can smell a
very subtle cinnamon scent coming off of it. I popped the kiss into my
mouth and was surprised at how smooth this particular kiss was. Other
Hershey Kisses usually have a 'bite' me texture to it. Pumpkin Spice
though seriously melts in your mouth, and holy heaven it tastes just
like a little slice of pumpkin pie. The smooth texture adds to that
whole feeling that you are eating a slice of pumpkin pie.
It truly is delicious, more like a baked gourmet good, than a piece of
candy. There is no other way to describe it, but to call it a speck of
pumpkin pie.
Fat:
The Candy Corn Hershey Kisses I reviewed earlier were quite high in
fat, at 12 grams in just 9 kisses. Pumpkin Spice is also no exception.
The way I see it though, so long as you are not oinking out on the whole
bag, you should be alright.
Pumpkin Spice though, does contain 13 grams of fat in just 9 kisses. So limit yourself.
Overall:
New Limited Edition Pumpkin Spice Hershey Kisses are delicious, they
are more like eating small splices of the delicious warm baked pumpkin
pie, than they are a candy treat.
Recommended?
Hershey Kisses Pumpkin Spice is a must have treat for those who love
pumpkin pie. You will not be disappointed in this one. At only $2.49 a
bag you can't beat it!
You can find them just about anywhere candy is being sold.
