Review & Release History of 7UP Cherry, Mellowcreme Autumn Mix, & More

Review

This drink seems to try to do too many things. Does it taste like carbonated water or soda? Both. Is it sugary sweet? Sort of. The cherry? Spicy, but also sweet. Basically, it’s a unique combination that sports a sugary, sweet, spicy cherry with a backdrop of carbonated flavor while also retaining a soda element. Not a bad drink or soda, just unique.

Release Date

Found mid-October 2026 at Walmart.

Review

I’m immediately met with the thick, creamy foam that tastes exactly like banana bread. It’s mildly sweet, but the taste still comes through: banana bread and a hint of cinnamon. Unfortunately, I don’t think I got any explicit matcha from the foam; however, when you hit the green liquid portion, it becomes a mildly sweet blend of matcha and banana bread. Frankly, I’m not crazy about this unique combination; something about it just tastes off.

Overall, it’s a very pleasant, inoffensive drink, though I suggest adding some sugar if you want something a little sweeter.

Release Date

Released February 2026. Found mid-to-late October.

Review

They’re tan-colored and smell of sweet, sugary pumpkin. Biting in, I notice the entire marshmallow is uniformly tanned, not just the outside; however, the flavor doesn’t quite match its aroma. It tastes mostly like a regular marshmallow with just a hint of pumpkin. Same level of sweetness as a generic marshmallow, about the same flavor and texture, so unfortunately, nothing out of the ordinary or to write home about aside from them looking unappealing.

Release Date

Likely released in 2019, they’ve come back every fall since. Found on the Target website in late October 2026.

Review

These are all supposed to taste different, at least the two candy corns (Harvest Candy Corn vs. Candy Corn), while the pumpkins are supposed to simply be regular, larger candy corn. 

And I can confirm the pumpkins and the regular candy corn taste identical, sporting a very sweet, fondant, creamy, light honey-ish, vanilla flavor. The only difference is that the pumpkins taste and feel chunkier. The waxy-like and soft texture composition is also the same. I just love the pumpkins; they’re so addictive and thick!

The big distinction is the Candy Corn pieces with the brown top — Harvest Candy Corn. These have a noticeable milk cocoa-ish chocolate taste and don’t come across as sweet as regular candy corn. To me, it’s 70% chocolate and 30% regular candy corn–a tasty combination; though, to me, regular candy corn still takes the crown. Honestly, I wouldn’t have minded a bit more candy corn flavor in these to help balance the two competing flavor profiles.

I’m unsure of a release date. Found in late October 2026 at Target.

Review

Interestingly, these are about the quarter of a size of a regular filled wafer roll–theyre mini! Each one is a tan brown, has white swirls, and an absolutely packed looking white filling. Biting in, the shell provides a very light, wafer cookie crunch. It doesn’t break apart and reminds me of a very soft, thin, lightly crunchy cookie combined with a wafer. The inside side is incredibly soft and doesn’t provide much oomph as it feels on the thinner side despite the generous amount; think of a thin frosting. In terms of taste, it’s entirely a light buttery wafer flavor with an essence of cream that comes from the filling. It’s not very sweet, either. Overall, this is more bland than what it advtises itself as. Where is the sweetness, and where is the caramel or dulce de leche flavor?

Review

These look just like the package and have a sugar-coated Brown Mochi show with a white filling. The smell is quite strong; it’s a very clear and distinct sweet maple pancake smell. The texture and mouthfeel are standard: lightly chewy with a slightly softer filling. The taste, however, is unique. 

It’s clearly maple and syrup, with a slight buttery, almost doughy taste, though it’s dulled by the mochi itself. Basically, it’s not as strong as it should be, and the dull mochi-flavored background dials it down a bit too much. Interestingly, I found the powdered-sugar exterior a huge plus, as it reminded me of sugar-dusted pancakes or doughy treats.

Review

Interesting. So first off, these are canned, literally. You need to peel back the aluminum lid on top to reveal the wafers. They’re smooth and break apart a bit as you try to dig them out. The inside of these sports a light yellow filling encased in a yellow wafer. Biting in, I immediately notice the filling is fairly substantial, though it doesn’t feel very thick. The wafer itself is also very thin and crumbles somewhat as I bit through it. Not the best mouthfeel overall; more on the cheaper, generic side. 

The taste is a moderately sweet, mildly creamy, sugary lemon with a teeny-tiny tart note and a plain-ish-tasting wafer background. Not bad, though nothing strong enough for those who enjoy lemon or want a sweet-filled wafer roll.

Overall, these are a bit disappointing, though unique, specifically since they have a lemon flavor. I’d love to see them increase the filling’s thickness and ensure the wafer itself feels thicker, too.

Review

These nearly smell like a morning in Dunkin’ Donuts. Sweet, warm, and creamy vanilla with a light coffee and buttery-cookie background. Each piece has a very generous amount of large, colorful embedded sprinkles and a few white chocolate-looking pieces, and it actually seems like most of these mix-ins fill most of the spaces in some of these brittle pieces.

The taste is as it smells, but dampened down. It’s mostly a cookie taste, with a light, buttery vanilla flavor and mild to moderate sweetness. Unfortunately, no explicit coffee here. Overall, it’s pretty generic-tasting and reminds me of a sugar cookie, but with less vanilla and butter flavor. In terms of mouthfeel, it’s a reasonably thin, crunchy cookie. Not as crunchy as, say, Chips Ahoy, but close. They’re also fairly dry.

Review

These are broken into four chocolate-looking pieces with little embedded, crunchy, tanned bits throughout. The taste and texture mostly remind me of a Hershey’s bar, but it’s slightly different. It has the same level of sweetness and mostly tastes the same, though this bar has a slightly warmer chocolate note overall. I also like the tiny crunchy bits, which, while they don’t add a ton of crunch, you can at least tell that they’re there. Overall, imagine a Hershey bar that’s slightly crunchier with a warmer chocolate flavor.
