As part of the much anticipated Spring Fever VoxBox from
Influenster, I received a complementary sample of Tastykake Kandy Bar Kake. There are several flavors and I received the S'mores style made with real Hershey's cocoa. Perfect for summer, I unwrapped that buddy and enjoyed it after dinner one night, sitting out under the stars in my backyard.
Here is the outside wrapper:
Now before I post the unwrapped photo, a little caveat that I do live in Florida and this VoxBox sat all day in the mailbox before I was able to pick it up and bring it home. I'm sure the ones from the grocery store will be much more appealing.
Unfortunately not a winner on presentation but the taste was sweet and cake-like. I wanted to love this Tastykake product but the taste of S'mores did not shine through for me. It was delicious and definitely satisfied my sweet tooth but I was disappointed that the flavor of marshmallow was not present in the creamy filling as stated in the wrapper and the chocolate was just 'ok'. I'm tempted to purchase these at my local Publix and give it another go as I reeeeallly wanted to like them. Maybe I got a bum kake? Who knows. If you had a different experience with your Tastykake Kandy Bar Kake product, please post and let me know!
