SILKY GEM - Gems Me Up - Edible Crystal Candy, 30 pieces, Random Flavors, Kohakutou, Edible Gems, Vegan, Gluten Free, ASMR

This variety pack of crystal candles offered 8 flavors to sample, along with a complimentary pouch of sour powder. They were, lemon( lychee, strawberry, raspberry, strawberry lemon,, mango blue raspberry and cinnamon. The lemon was the stand out. It was by far the most flavorful and paired really well with the sour powder. Lychee was top two, although it wasn't a close top two, comparing it to the lemon. However, it tasted like fruit. The rest of the fruit flavored ones were bland, tasting like sugar. Cinnamon has hints of spice, did not taste like cinnamon and was hands down my least favorite. Ultimately, they reminded me of tasteless rock candy. Which is less expensive and at least has some flavor. More than half of the candies were not even that crunchy, which was something I was hoping for to satisfy my sensory processing. Overall, I was disappointed by the product and a little insulted by the cost for such a mediocre novelty item. Do yourself a favor and skip them. They aren't worth the price!

Not as sweet as you might think but still delicious and you can’t beat the satisfying crunch.

I was really excited for this product from all the videos I saw online and the ASMR review of it lol. I ordered misaki tokyo's crystal candy before and it was very nice, healthy, and simple snack but more expensive than this. So I thought this brand would be similar and liked that it was more affordable, but their quality is just very very low in my opinion. Its like hardened jello, totally different than other ones I have tried. What I got with Misaki Tokyo's crystal candy was way more worth it than this. These are so gross I am not even too sure what to do with them. Packaging was more visually enjoyable than the actual candy. Very disappointed.

I got these because my kids are in to ASMR. They look amazing, but the taste left me wanting more flavor. The crunch to chewiness was not any of our cup of tea either. The gel on the inside felt dry.

I love love love these but, they are not for everyone. I wanted to outline some stuff nobody seems to really talk about with these.They are not Jolly Rancher strong, the flavor is light and sweet but not overly sugary. The crunch is good but they're not hard- its not like rock candy. The clusters are the "crunchiest" as they dont have the gummy/squishy inner textures as the others do.These are very easy to make yourself should you want to. You can find plenty of recipes by googling kohakutou. These are very expensive considering that you can make this for very cheap however the technique can have a learning curve. The plus side here is convenience and flavor variety but if you are even slightly skilled in candy making it's hard to justify this price 😅

These candies are beautiful. The presentation is beautiful. The creativity is beautiful and the concept is interesting. I like rock candy but this is not rock candy. It is not as hard as rock candy. It’s much softer to chew. The interesting thing is that there’s a jelly component Which I thought was going to be the equivalent of, say the inside of a jellybean or a Swedish fish, but the jelly component is not that firm (it’s not liquid either. I’m not exactly sure how to explain it. It’s like the glue that holds the rock crystals together). So for me, it ends up being a texture thing. The flavor is fine and I wonder if this is a candy That may be has its roots in a different culture and perhaps I’m just not accustomed to it but I wanted to try it and I have and I’m glad I did. I won’t buy it again but there are I’m sure many people that would like this. I did put mine in the freezer to see if it would firm up the jelly consistency, but it did not.

I was really excited to get these because of all the videos I saw. I was SO DISAPPOINTED. These have NO flavor. It's like putting a spoon full of sugar in your mouth. And the gummy is more like jello. So it's like crunchy jello. So bad. Please - save your money. These are GROSS. I think I'm going to have to throw them away.

People are definently hating on this product too much. The texture definently is a throw back since the inside breaks apart but I'm pretty sure it's supposed to do that. The taste is pretty sweet to me and the scent is pretty strong also which might be why people keep saying their getting headaches. I think it's good though. The crunch doesn't disappoint but I wouldn't get it again. It's pretty pricey and just tastes really sugary. Not bad though.
