Haribo World Mix from France 500 grams

Reading others' reviews on this product is a great reminder of how everyone's tastes and preferences are so different. I read a lot of texture and "soap tasting" complaints and it's so funny because the half of the mix they're complaining about are my favorite ones! My husband and I both prefer the candies with a bite-through texture (flowers, gumdrops, jelly babies, red piccolo, raspberries & blackberry gumdrops, yellow bricks) rather than the tougher gummy texture (bears, alligators, airplanes, cola bottles). The first seem to be the ones people are complaining about, but that's a style, not a mistake or quality issue! They are a more European-style candy (ahem, world mix?) so the some of the fruit flavors are less familiar and may have an almost floral hint, but I wouldn't call them soapy. We both personally love those flavors. For us it's the more familiar gummy ones that (while still delicious) we're reaching for last. If you know that you only like classic American textures and flavors, you may agree with the lower ratings, but if you're more open-minded you'll find this mix completely delicious. Also, this arrived while we were away so I was worried about it sitting outside for 2 days in the hot summer sun, but there was no melting or degradation whatsoever. *added pic of my second order laid out (after I ate a few)! This is a much different mix-up than my first order and some gummies are totally absent this time (strawberries, planes, colas) but I couldn't be happier. All the best candies are there in abundance!

I fell in love with this mix when I was living abroad in France. It's got all the best that European Harbio candies have to offer -- including the fact that they've got less sweetener and different types of gelatin. If you're looking for an American style gummy bear mix or CVS brand orange slices, this is not for you. But if you're looking for something a little tangy with a lot of fun textures - I would encourage you to try this! This is the only place I've been able to find this exact mix - so for me it's worth the $$.

I enjoy Haribo. It is a high quality product. My problem with this product is the lack of information about the ingredients IN ENGLISH. I bought this for my son’s birthday and we will be giving it away today. We are both severely allergic to mango and I am allergic to kiwi. What is the vegetable oil? Probably soy, oops, allergic too.

This was so good, so yummy. All great choices. Raspberries & blackberries, jelly babies, gummy cherries, gumdrops, and more.

Somehow they’re all wet and half melted into a large chunk. The expiration date is still 4 months away. Disgusting, straight in the trash.

The packaging and shipment were fine, but everything in the bag tasted like perfume or floral. It was very odd, not a taste I think most Americans are use too.

Good verity gummy’s

We are a Haribo household and try all sorts of their gummies from all over the world. This world mix gives us a fun variety that incorporates a many different bags. The price is a bit much, but can be worth it if you are a “gummy fan”.
