Haribo Milky Mix

I have to admit, that I was not fully aware of just how many varieties of Haribo sweets there are. Of course I knew about the star mix, and the fizzy Tangfastics, and indeed have reviewed these in the past, but it wasn't until very recently that I have seen the wider range that only seems to be available in relatively few places. This, though, opens up a whole new confectionary world to me, and it is a world I am very happy to visit from time to time. As a child, I loved my very occasional (and they really were occasional) visits to a sweet shop.....a proper sweet shop, where you either asked for "a quarter of....." or you were given a ...  Read the complete review

I'm not much of a sweet eater but if I see some of these Haribo Milky Mix sweets I can't resist them. Shaped like milk bottles they are a mixture of plain white bottles and half white half pink bottles and are just delicious! I buy my bags of Milky Mix at Heron where I get two bags that are 150g for £1. I think this is quite good but as we don't seem to have anywhere else locally that sells them now Woolies has gone I can't compare the price.

The sweets are ...  Read the complete review

I love the milk bottles in the Haribo Super Kiddies Mix but there never seem to be enough of them. There are generally about 5 in a bag and that is so not enough so when I read on here the other day that there is a Haribo Milk mix I was quite excited and decided to look for them in the store today, which, happily, I found! The milk bottles are sold in a bag called Haribo Milky Mix. Haribo is the biggest manufacturer of jelly and gummy sweets in the world! They were founded in 1920 in Germany by a gentleman called Hans Riegel. The name Haribo was devised by using the initials of his name with the initial of Bonn, the location in Germany where they ...  Read the complete review

Haribo Milky Mix is a 200g bag of a mixture of milk and strawberry milk flavour jelly gum sweets. These retail for around £1.50 a pack though prices vary between stockists. I bought these as an alternative to the Bassetts Milk Bottles I love but cannot seem to find anywhere to buy anymore (the milk bottles dusted in powder with a B on the front and a milky taste). I was more than disappointed with this Haribo offering. The Haribo milk gums are bland and chewy. They don't really know if they are supposed to be a jelly sweet like a jelly snake or a jelly ring or if they are supposed to be a Milk Gum and mixing the two in my opinion just does not ...  Read the complete review
