Sticky Sweets

Sticky Sweets


Super old photo.


Eaten them long long ago.


Sticky is the Brand. Franchise from Australia, the candies got 'pulled' and the process is super duper long and it looks tiring. In Australia, they do show their skills in front of the crowd.


To do the centre with heart or xoxo, you would need to craft the shape and then embedded them in a think think log-looking candy. then it will be baked (i thinking) and when it is cooled, they will start chopping the candy (which the size has already bee reduced to the above circumference)


These hard candies tasted awesome, not overly sweet and the flavour are pleasant, not very chemically.

Hi all

Chocolate bar from Chocoelf


Rye Dark Chocolate

Sounds weird right? I was impressed that there where real wheat/rye looking thing in the chocolate. In my opinion, they tasted like those chocolate rice, except it is embedded inside a bar and the rye gives a soft taste. But as to Mey, she mentioned that it tasted weird, well, to each of its own. I liked the fact that it contains many many ryes, not just a few pieces for show, which their idea is their creavtity and inguenity, which equivalent to their price. This dark chocolate is only 65% or 75% max but I promised you it is not sweet. If I did not remember wrong, it use xylitol, well, this girl told me its sugar free because its uses a wheat based type of sweetner, and I was like : 'ya, carbohydrate-based sweetners are used a replacers' and she was like: 'what, you study biology?'. Humbly replied: 'no, just food science'

Price: $6.80 or $8.80 per bar
Taste:








Green Tea Dark Chocolate


My love for green tea is never explainable, so there is always this rush to grab green tea related stuff, and this is no exception. The green tea flavour was surprising not entirely overpowered by the dark chocolate. They both kinda compliment each other rather harmoniously, but no man will complain of being too rich- I would definately love to have a richer green tea flavour.

Price: $6.80 or $8.80 per bar

Taste:





I LIKED THE FACT THAT they thought through about the packaging design. Note that they have a zip-lock function, which is excellent then the usual aluminium packaging, because wite these zip-locks, the chocs is fresher, ,less exposed to air and even lets you keep in normal temp environment w/o inviting the ants and minute bits will not drop.
This company is impressive, because it has red wine filling dark choc, which they uses the word-resevertol, green tea-catechin, rye-fiber which seems like they are advetising, focusing on the food science terminology... they have flavours likegingseng and the first flavour that caught my attention was chilli, which is surpsing only hot at the end... innovative definately. They have green tea truffles, which I went back to ask for, however, rhey did not bring it to the exhibition. too bad, have to pop by their shop to taste it and hopefully, it aint disappointing.
