Recently, I was given the opportunity to taste Wolfgang Candies.  These were sweet dark chocolate candies filled with a light fruit syrup.  They’re individually wrapped and come in blueberry, raspberry and cranberry.  The berries are listed as ingredients which is a big plus, no artificial flavoring.  The ingredients include dark chocolate (sugar, chocolate (processed with alkali), cocoa butter, soy lecithin (an emulsifier) vanilla), sugar, berries, vegetable oil. I enjoyed the dark chocolate outer shell.  It wasn’t too sweet, and is a good contrast to the fruit syrup inside.

While the berries are listed as an ingredient, and it says they are dipped, I wasn’t able to find fruit inside the syrup. The sweet liquid inside the chocolate shell is light and more flowery than fruity tasting, but still pleasant.  While I’m not a huge fan of chocolate covered syrup, my husband and son felt similarly about the fruit and the syrup but gave the candies a little better rating. 

Would I buy these for myself?  Maybe not, I’m not a huge fan of fruit syrups, but I could get them for my husband or son because they liked  Wolfgang Candies.  It might make a nice Christmas gift, Stocking stuffer, or Host gift too.

My grade for Wolfgang Candies Chocolate Dipped Berry Candies  is C+, but to be fair my husband and son gave it a B.
