simply caramel milky way

welcome to the first and last blog you'll ever need to read about which candy is best. it's 11 months and 3 weeks until halloween, so it's time to start thinking about "WHICH CANDY IS BEST?"

i know what you're thinking: "most candy is best." well, you're right, but some candy is most definitely not best, and so this isn't going to be a blog about Almond Joy and/or Dots. instead, you'll get raw, IN-YOUR-FACE, extremely rad reviews of the ultimate candies; sweet, sour, savory, spicy, and bitter alike.

up first, the Simply Caramel Milky Way











now i know what you're thinking: "come on, what about the regular Milky Way? the nougat isn't bad." you're right. the nougat isn't bad. i'd go as far as to say that milky way brings the #1 S-tier nougat game. however, milky way also brings the #1 S-tier caramel game, and so you have to check this candy out! it is an exercise in minimalism from a design perspective, but this is truly a candy that knows how to play to its strong suits.

not really much to explain here. it's chocolate and caramel. the caramel is fairly dense, but it's not very gummy, so it's only a little more dense than your standard Milky Way. i see this more as a separate candy bar than a Milky Way without nougat, but for those who are extremely against nougat, this could be right in their... sweet spot.

i give it 91 radicals out of 100, and 4 hype out of 5, making it "super hype"
