Brach’s Indulge Cookie Nibbles
The new Indulge line is all about panned chocolate items. First up are the Indulge Cookie Nibbles. They’re described as Crispy, mini chocolate chip cookies covered in rich and creamy milk chocolate. While the description seems pretty simple, the ingredients list is ginormous ... I’m guessing because baked goods are often more complicated than candies (and the simple act of using flour means all those enrichment ingredients have to be included on the list). The pieces aren’t very large, just little mostly-round bits about the size of flat-sided garbanzo beans. The chocolate coating is shiny & rather thin. They smell like Chips Ahoy - sweet and a bit like cereal. The cookie centers are dry, a little sandy but not quite a crunchy crisp. They’re like a cross between a commercial cookie like Chips Ahoy and the cookie center of a Twix. They’re not always consistent either - some are more grainy and some more sandy. They’re much more textured than something like Chocolate Covered Cookie Dough Bites. It’s a milk chocolate coating that doesn’t really offer much of a cocoa punch, but a creamy sweet counterpoint. It’s a fun snack, and I did find myself munching on them ... but never quite craving them. It was more because I thought I had to eat some of them. The box holds 6 ounces and has a retail price of $3.29. They’re not exactly a premium product and the packaging is a little, well, not quite a spiffy and modern as I would have hoped for a new product launch but still serviceable. But unlike many of the products in the Brach’s line these days, these were made in the United States. Related Candies
