I was sent a Candy Club for review. All opinions are my own.
I was recently sent a Candy Club subscription box for review and the timing is perfect because a Candy Club subscription would make a great valentine’s day gift! Candy Club sends 2 to 3 pounds of candy to you each month. When you first sign up you answer a few questions about your candy preferences. When you sign up you get to share your candy likes and dislikes such as how sour, sweet, spicy or fruity you like your candy. Your survey results will recommend one of their three subscription box options for you. They have a Sours & More club (for sour lovers), a Classics club which includes sweet or classic candies like jelly beans and sweet fruit chews or the Favorites club which combines the top picks from the sours club and the classics club for people who like it all.
I am all about sour candy so the survey recommended the sours & more club for me and that is what I was sent. Instead of shipping on a specific date each month, your Candy Club will mail out within 2-3 days of you placing your order and shipping takes 3-5 business days. If you want to get your order by Valentine’s day you need to order no later than February 7th.
The Candy Club package comes in a cute box that is brightly colored and fun. The whole box sticks with the same bright blue/teal and pink color scheme including the box, tissue paper and informational cards that come on top of the box. My box had three circular containers of candy.
The first one was Dorval Wild Cherry Sour Power Belts. I have bought these in green apple and strawberry in the past but had never seen cherry. These were my favorite in the box because they are so sour.
The second container was Allan Tangy Wild Strawberries which are chewy candies that are sweet but are covered in a sour powder on the outside, so they’re both sweet and sour. I love strawberry flavored candy so these were great too.
The third container was a really unique candy, Nassau Candy Gummy Sour Octopus. Yes, these are shaped like octopus! They are multi-colored and super cute. They looked like they were covered in sour coating like the other candies, but Ryan & I both thought it was more of a sugar-coating than sour as these were fruity and sweet and not sour tasting at all. They had a really bold fruity flavor which Ryan enjoyed so they were still a winner for us.
In addition to the three containers of candy, the box was ‘decorated’ with Sweets Totally Taffy assorted salt water taffy mix. There were green apple ones which I loved and the others all tasted great too. I thought adding in the loose individually packaged candy was a fun way to fill in the gaps for the box.
The whole box was a fun way to try out new candies. I’d love to subscribe regularly to keep discovering new candies. You can sign up for a subscription as a Valentine’s day gift for one person or split the box between family members based on what each person likes. Use the code welcome10off to get $10 off your first box!

Looks like a fun subscription box. I’m trying to remove sugar from my diet so I won’t be getting this.

This looks like a fun idea for valentine’s day or for a kid’s birthday!

I love giving (and receiving) gift boxes. You’re right! Valentine’s Day is the perfect occasion for a candy box. These look like premium candies that you find in fancier candy stores. I love sour candies, too!

This is a nice subscription box! It would make a great gift, too!
I agree Valentine’s Day is a good time to send this gift box. So many start new diets at the first of the year that you have no clue what they’ve given up. I’d hate to sabotage someone’s meal plans! At 80, my dad would be a good one for this gift since he has never turned down candy yet!
