Is It Wrong I Like These More Than The Real Thing?

I really don't avoid fruit or only ever eat candy, but I must admit that I sometimes prefer fruit-flavoured treats to actual fruits. I love Jelly Tots and Fruit Pastilles, but have only seen them occasionally when visiting family in another province where there are enough British expats to make them worth importing. I am thrilled to find an online source because travel plans to my folks are on hold for the foreseeable future. This bag was exceptional for me because these two flavours would be the ones I'd pull side to eat after all the others in attempt to save best for last. There is an intensity to the fruitiness that presumably comes their use of real fruit puree. I think that when someone describes red wine as having a berry note to it, that's the essence of what you're tasting here - not too sweet, a tiny bit floral and almost boozy. Unfortunately, not a significant source of vitamins or antioxidants, which is a shame because they'd be an easy way to stock up on fruit - no need of refrigeration.

I'm so sad that these are sold out; they're fantastic! Not too sweet, not too strong. Just a lovely sort of essence that I could eat all day (and sort of did...)
