I received these to try for free from Influenster.com. Now I have to admit, I only shared on of these with my fiance. I ate the rest of the bag myself. Oops! So in the middle of the night, I went out to the pharmacy and bought another bag of these to share with my daughter. They were so good! She’s almost 3 and handled these so well! No problems with the texture, no gagging or choking, she just gobbled them up. She is on the spectrum and does have issues with some foods, so I was pleasantly surprised that she took so well to them. We also melted some and coated some apples for a nice caramel apple dessert. I always have an issue with caramels sticking to my teeth and taking forever to dissolve. That was not the case with these. They became melty and gooey and dissolved in my mouth!
I have not had Werther’s caramels in any form since my Mere-mere passed away. That was always a special thing between us and I was just never interested. Getting that little bag in the pumpkin voxbox brought back so many fond memories. It’s silly to disregard something like that because of fear or sadness, but that is not what occurred. I may have teared up a bit, but it was more joyful tears than they were sad. I get to share this experience with my daughter and that means the world to me–just like I’m sure my Mere-mere felt sharing these with me.
