You Have to Try August’s Top Ranked Candy!
August is wrapping up, and with it, a fresh batch of candies that have taken my taste buds on a wild, delicious ride! From mystery flavours to nostalgic favourites with a twist, this month’s top 10 candies are nothing short of extraordinary. I dove headfirst into these treats, and trust me, you’re going to want to grab a bag (or two) of each.
So, let’s break down the best candies for August!
1. What The Fanta Mystery Flavour (China)
Let’s kick things off with something that’s not quite candy, but just as thrilling—a mystery-flavoured Fanta soda! This Fanta drink had me guessing from the first sip. The flavour is a mix of fruity and tangy, but with a twist that’s hard to pin down.
Is it citrus? Is it berry? The mystery is half the fun! This drink is the perfect way to cool down during those humid August days while keeping your taste buds on their toes.
2. Candy Kitten Sour Watermelon (UK)
Next up, we have the Candy Kitten Sour Watermelon from the UK, a treat that’s as cute as it is tasty. These vegan gummies are bursting with juicy watermelon flavour, and just the right amount of sour to keep you coming back for more.
They’re pretty much the plant-based UK version of Swedish candy. The texture is soft and chewy, making them a delightful sour candy to munch on. And let’s not forget the packaging—these little kittens are almost too adorable to eat…almost.
3. Nestle Kit Kat Vegan (UK)
As someone who’s always on the lookout for vegan treats, the Nestle Kit Kat Vegan from the UK was a must-try. I was curious to see how it stacked up against the original, and I was not disappointed. The chocolate is rich and smooth, with that classic Kit Kat crunch that we all know and love. Honestly, if you didn’t tell me it was vegan chocolate, I probably wouldn’t have guessed!
Break off a piece during your afternoon coffee break. It’s the perfect guilt-free indulgence for vegans and non-vegans alike!
4. M&M Caramel Cold Brew
M&M’s have always been a favourite of mine, but when I saw the Caramel Cold Brew version, I knew I had to try them! These little milk chocolate candies are packed with caramel and a hint of coffee, making them the ultimate sweet treat for coffee lovers.
The caramel is gooey and satisfying, while the cold brew flavour adds a sophisticated twist.
5. Squashies Raspberry and Cream
Squashies have made quite the name for themselves, and the Raspberry and Cream flavour is a classic for a reason. These soft, squishy candies are a perfect blend of tangy raspberry and sweet cream, making them an irresistible treat. The texture is so satisfying—like biting into a little cloud of sweetness.
Squashies candy is perfect for a movie night snack or when you’re craving something sweet but not too heavy. Just be warned—they’re addictive!
6. Everlasting Gobstoppers
Everlasting Gobstoppers are a true blast from the past. These colourful jawbreakers change flavours as you suck on them, and they last forever—hence the name! I loved revisiting this classic, and the nostalgic candy flavours took me right back to my childhood. If you’ve got a sweet tooth that just won’t quit, these are your go-to candy.
Perfect for long road trips or whenever you need a candy that lasts. Just be sure to pace yourself—these aren’t for the faint of heart!
7. Squeeze Pop Assorted Flavours
Remember those fun, messy Squeeze Pops from back in the day? They’re back and just as fun as ever! I tried the assorted flavours and it was like being a kid again, squeezing out the tangy, fruity gel straight onto my tongue.
It’s a bit messy, but that’s all part of the charm. Plus, you get to control how much or how little you want, making it a customizable treat.
This old fashioned candy is great for those of you who love to revisit the good old days! It’s also a great treat to share with the kids in your life. Just have some napkins handy!
8. Koala Jumbo Sour Suckers Tub
If you’re a fan of sour candies, you’ll love the Koala Jumbo Sour Suckers. This jumbo-sized sour key candy comes in a variety of tangy flavours, and the tub means you’ll have plenty to share—or hoard for yourself! The sour coating is intense, but it gives way to a sweet, fruity center that’s totally worth it.
Keep a tub in your pantry for when those sour cravings hit. They’re also great for parties or as a fun addition to a candy buffet.
9. Harry Potter Hershey's Bar
Calling all Potterheads! The Harry Potter Hershey's Bar is a magical treat that brings a bit of the wizarding world into your snack time. It’s classic Hershey’s milk chocolate, but the packaging and design give it a special, collectible feel. Plus, who doesn’t love a little bit of magic with their Harry Potter candy?
Perfect for Harry Potter marathons or as a gift for the wizarding fan in your life. The chocolate is as creamy and delicious as you’d expect from Hershey’s.
10. Mountain Dew Freedom Fusion
Last but not least, we’ve got Mountain Dew Freedom Fusion—a bold, fruity drink that’s perfect for quenching your thirst during the final month of summer. The flavour is a mix of berry, citrus, and that classic Mountain Dew kick. It’s a refreshing, energizing drink that pairs perfectly with your favourite candy.
Chill it in the fridge and crack it open on a hot day. It’s the perfect companion for a bag of chips or some salty snacks.
