I am a big lover of sweets so when I was in Asda today I just couldn't stop myself from picking up these sweeties!
The packaging was calling out to me as it's very pretty and girly and I'm in a 'loving pink' kind of mood at the moment (sitting in pink PJs now!).
The laces are a little waxy and take a fair while to chew but the taste of strawberry is there and it's pretty strong, it does taste very nice but if I could improve the product it would be to make the laces less waxy.
I enjoyed mucking around with these, making bracelets with my niece and other various jewellery and just generally playing with our food before we ate it, it's nice to get to act like a child sometimes!
These sweets (as per most) should definitely be enjoyed in moderation as one 70g bag provided 242 calories & 34.3g sugars which is just not good for your teeth (or your waistline!) at all! But then that's why they're sweets and forbidden most of the time!
I would rate this product 4/5 as I think the price is very good and the taste is nice, however, the lace itself could do with being less chewy as I found that I got sick of chewing after a few laces and ended up giving the rest of the packet to my niece.
These strawberry laces can be purchased for 36p from Asda or as part of a long term 3 for £1.00 price offer in all Asda stores & online at asda.co.uk.
