Kandy Kritique -- Werther's Original CaraMelts

I have returned with a new candy review! The candy I am reviewing is a new item called Werther's Original CaraMelts.
This is NOT a caramel candy as you may know it. These are NOT the chewy cubes that your mom or granny or auntie may have made caramel apples with, nor are they the sweet goo you pour over sundaes, nor are they the stretchy, sweet sticky stuff used in tens of thousands of chocolate bars and chocolate pieces. Rather, they are flattish, tannish domes of a buttery white-chocolate-type confection with a creamy caramel/butterscotch/dulce-de-leche taste. Think semi-hardened dollops of dulce-de-leche flavored cake frosting. These little domed disks melt in the mouth in a rich, satiny fantasy of flavor, encasing the tastebuds in a wrapper of the most mind-blowing yumminess said tastebuds ever had the pleasure of knowing. It was a major effort not to finish my bag in one sweep!

THIS CANDY HAS BEEN RATED D (DIVINE)
