All my black licorice lovers glad to see my package arrive. Black twirlers not in stores in Orlando!!
Nothing beats good black licorice! We are glad you were happy with your Licorice Lovers Gift box and are grateful to have you as a customer!
Very good product.
Thank you and we are glad your candy meets your expectations!
this 5lb. bag was not as good as our last two,,, the bag was not tied and jawbreakers spilled in the box, but not only that, some of them had a nasty taste to them ,,,we previously bought from grandpa joes but we were getting nasty ones ... after research we tried candy favorites and it was good, but this time they were not so great!
We greatly appreciate your feedback and are grateful you chose CandyFavorites.com! The Jawbrekers you got came directly from the manufacturer and were as fresh as could be. The original Jawbreakers were discontinued a year or so ago much to the sadness of candy lovers and the replacements which you received are good but they are different if only in terms of consistency. Please accept our apoliges about the bag becoming untied. All of our bulk candy is hand packed to ensure freshness and please let us know if this happens again.
I’m sorry, but these don’t even resemble Brach’s maple nut goodies! I expected this item to at least have a similar flavor and texture, but it’s not even close! It almost seems rude to even compare the two imo!! These are peanuts dipped in maple flavored syrup, or something like that!! They left the “goodie” part out I believe!! I was so hopeful that these were going to take me back to my childhood, but instead, I just hope I never have to eat one of these again!! I appreciate the effort, but no thank you!
Thanks for sharing your honest critique. Brachs Maple Nut Goodies, like so many other Brachs candies, were discontinued many years ago. We have searched extensively to find a suitable substitute but, with that said, it is not a Maple Nut Goodie and doesn't taste like one. It's a catch-22 as the candy still exists to remind us of our childhood favorites, but, alas, it is not the same product.
Why did you change the color of black Jack from being white, pink and black? They were more appealing to the eye than the yellow with black and red/orange spot.

I miss the lighter colors but the taste is the same and my babies , grand babies and great grand babies love this candy as much as I did and still do !!
I would like to know where this taffy is made. I actually have purchased and consumed the black jack daily for a long time. But recently I received a bag or 2 of 3lb black jack toffee that had the original bag broken and repackaged. I thought nothing of that until I opened the bag. There was a strong odor that was offensive that came from the bag but I assumed that the fragrance had something to do with the second bag. But the after tasting one piece I thought not. Smelling the other pieces I realized that it was from the taffy. On one site, the writer said their bag had 2 origins. One from a vendor in Chicago and below that it said made in China. What is the truth? Have they changed the formula?
I ordered from 2 more vendors and found this same aroma in each of the new bags. Please tell me about this because I loved the product.
