YumEarth Organic Holiday Mini Candy Canes, 30 Count

Very yummy! I have purchased a few boxes for my holiday baking and decorating the tree! Quality is great and the size and color are your average size as any candy cane would be. I thoroughly enjoy them!

These candy canes are delicious and organic, which is why I buy them. However, of the three or four boxes I have bought over the years, none has arrived unbroken. In my recent box of 10, one of the 10 appears to be undamaged. The only reason I don't return them is because I don't know any place else to get organic candy canes. Why don't they just package them in a box instead of a paper bag?

They do have a xylitol flavor. You can definitely taste it, but it wasn't overwhelming to me. I was looking for sugar alternatives that aren't harmful, like aspartame. I've used xylitol before, not my favorite, especially since using it as a general sweetener, like for coffee, can give you diarrhea. But I figured having it in such a small amount, like a hard candy, would be fine. And it is. I usually take one little cane, break it up, and eat it throughout the day. So one candy cane a day and no issues. I can see how the xylitol flavor might turn some people off, though. It is pretty strong. I personally don't mind it with the stronger peppermint flavor. I kinda think they complement each other, but some people may not agree.

As a parent, I am so excited to have these as a safe and healthy option for my kids! I am thrilled that they are not only organic, but they are dye-free and still taste delicious. My kids love these! They are the perfect festive sweet treat, and we love to adorn our coffee and hot coca mugs with these adorable mini candy canes! These are a must buy if you’re looking for a healthy no dye option for your kids!

Update: I’m reading my old review. Ok, this is an ongoing issue. Ordered some more but this time needed then in tact for the particular use. Unfortunately both boxes the candy canes were broken and unusable for my project. Disappointed because I needed them whole. Went to Whole Foods and got thick organic dye free candy canes which were cheaper and not broken. Posted these to my Facebook buy nothing group for someone who has a use for broken canes for recipes etc. if you need them whole, look elsewhere. If you don’t mind crushed candy canes these are great. Upon arrival, my candy canes were broken, but this posed no problem as I planned to crush them for topping sweet treats. If intending to decorate your tree or use for other purposes, consider in-store purchases. Annually, I prepare keto-friendly fudge using sugar-free chocolate and almond butter, mixed with peppermint extract and topped with crushed candy canes. These candy canes avoided artificial dyes, provided the desired crunch, and tasted normal. Their hardness matched traditional candy canes. I'm satisfied and highly recommend, appreciating the beautiful colors without toxic red 40.

Inconsistent in shape and quality. Too many canes were broken as well

Great taste, no dye. Came well packaged. Had to come all the way to Alaska on several different planes and they weren't broken. A little spendy but for no dye I will pay the price.

The candy canes themselves were wonderful. Good peppermint flavor, has a good candy snap, cute size, and no artificial dyes (which was our main reason for purchase). Unfortunately, every single candy cane was broken in the box. Shipping issue obviously.

Completely useless. Product showed up in pieces and completely damaged. Non returnable so a complete waste. The description says 30 mini candy cane. There are only 10 that showed up crumbled into 30 pieces. Im livid!

Delicious

I bought this product some time ago. I did not look at it until today. I started packing the Christmas stockings today and notice that there were only 11 canes in a box that was supposed to have 30. Some of them were broken and leaky and sticky. I have had to discard them all. I also noticed that the return date was 9 December so I cannot return the box as it is now the 16th. I was very disappointed to say the least. I would give the product a rating of minus 10 if I could. I had to chose 1 as it was the only options for a poor product

the candy canes came all broken and shattered in pieces and worst is i cant even teturn them or ask for refund. Very disappointed.
