Chewy Candy
Score: 7.25 / 10
What an interesting texture! It’s like a gummy and a soft candy had a kid. Basically, it’s more or less a gummy, but it’s softer, easier to bite through, and less hard overall. So, sure, the texture is different and, in my opinion, pretty neat; the flavor is very meh. Unfortunately, like most gummies, the flavor in these is rather dull. There’s a caramel, butterscotch-like taste, but it’s fairly light, and additionally, the lack of sweetness doesn’t help it either. Overall, these need some more sugar and/or bolder flavors. At least the shapes are kind of cool!
Released in the early months of 2025. Found at Five Below, April 2025.
Bar
Score: 7.25 / 10
I love the design! It’s a chocolate bar, and each piece resembles a small barrel. Breaking a piece off, the barrel reveals a thin layer of soft-solid frosting goo; it tastes like a creamy butterscotch, and with the sweet milk chocolate bar, it’s a great combination. The flavor profile, overall, is still milk chocolate, as that’s the bulk of it; in fact, the texture and taste resemble a Hershey’s bar with a background of butterscotch from the inner filling.
Released in October 2022 alongside other Butterbeer products. Found at Five Below, April 2025.
Kisses
Score: 7.25 / 10
These look like butterscotch: A pale, orangish yellow. Taste-wise, it’s exactly that: pure, creamy butterscotch. It lands on the sweeter side, which really brings out the bold butterscotch flavor. There’s a white, creamy center, but I didn’t notice it adding much, as the flavor of the butterscotch overpowers it.

Goldfish
Score: 6.25 / 10
These are perhaps the sweetest goldfish I’ve had. Don’t get me wrong, though; it’s not unbearably sweet; it’s just a lot sweeter than other goldfish. It has a biscuity crunch and a seasoning that coats your hands. The flavor is mostly sweet and tastes light, having a combination of butterscotch and caramel.
Officially released in early March 2025; however, reviewers have noted finding them in February. Found at Stop & Shop in March 2025.
Keebler Fudge Stripes
Score: 7 / 10
Opening these up, there is a noticeably sweet butterscotch and caramel-like smell. The taste is just that, too; it’s all quite light but sweet enough to enjoy for those who have a sweet tooth. The texture of these is a soft-crunch, and they are on the thinner side. As someone who doesn’t like crunchy cookies and prefers chewy ones, I found the composition of these to be good! It’s like they were trying to combine chewy and super crunchy, and in the end, they did a good job!
Released February 2025, limited edition. Found at Walmart in March 2025.
