• When you go to the "edit personal details" look at the Email preferences category, and there is a bold headline that says "Free stuff from our sponsors" check the box next to that. Then CM sometimes will randomly choose you to participate... Theres a learn more link in that section that explains it in further detail.

  Thanks again for the candy CM, I plan on playing a game using the candy with my sons today. I will get pics to share this afternoon when they are home from school. I'll also post what we think of all the treats! :)

• Okay I am back... We just used the gummies to play some math games. My boys are in first grade, and math is not one of their favorites using candy for addition/subtraction practice really got them excited! Now to what we thought of these candies...

  Kazoozles: I LOVED the kazoozles. I would definitely get them again. I liked both flavors especially the cherry punch.  I didn't mind the sugary coating on the pink lemonade flavor, but I preferred that the cherry punch didn't have that.

  Laffy Taffy: I love laffy taffy, and I liked the sparkles too. My sons really liked the sparkles they were excited to see something new in the candy so they enjoyed that surprise.

  Nerd Rope: Personally I don't like nerd rope - I'm not sure why, but I just don't like them. I think its the sticky rope part I don't like. However they are one of my hubby's favorites so he was happy to eat that one.

  Nerds: DH, and our boys really like these so they shared the box. They were a hit, I also like nerds. I remember them being around from when I was a kid, and I always like a good throw back.

  The gummies... Both my sons favorite were the Puckerooms. I didn't mind the shape they look like mushrooms to me, and my sons didn't say anything "funny" about the shape either. I do however personally wish they were a lot more sour... I love super sour candy, and they didn't taste sour to me. The Sploshberries were also a hit. I liked the fruity taste, but they were gummier than I expected. My boys liked the juice inside the berries. One of my sons said they tasted like fruit punch. Sluggles My boys really liked the sluggles especially that they were bug shaped. To me they just tasted like fruit snack, or really chewy gummy bears. They weren't really my favorite, but they were still good.

  I think I covered them all thanks Wonka, and CM... The candies were a hit, and with Halloween coming up we will probably pick up some more wonka treats. yum!

• Tonight my girls tried the Kazoozles and the sluggles. They feel their favorite of all the candies is the Kazoozles. They have asked me to buy some more when I goto the store. What surprised me the most is, they even said they would do extra chores to earn them. Tomorrow, I will let them try the classics.

• My children were beyond excited to be picked for the Wonka influencer program. The excitement in our house the day we received the candy was palpable! I was pleasantly surprised to see all the candy we received!

  Our favorite Wonka candy was definitely the Splooshberries and the Puckerooms. I LOVED that both of these candies were colored using natural colors instead of dyes. My kids loved the fruit filling in the Splooshberries and thought the different fruit shapes were really cool. Although the Puckerooms are sour gummies, I didn’t find them to be very sour at all, which was actually a plus for me as I’m really not a big fan of sour candy and again the kids thought the mushroom shapes were really neat although I kind of thought they looked like a little gummy penis.

  Another candy we received that was a big hit were the Kazoozles, which were very similar to licorice with a creamy filling. We got Cherry Punch and Pink Lemonade flavors. I really liked the Pink Lemonade flavor as it had a great tangy/sweet combination. The Cherry Punch was okay, but we didn’t find it nearly as tasty as the Pink Lemonade.

  We also received a Nerds Rope, which was a long gummy rope with multi-colored Nerds “stuck” to it. It was really different and had a really cool appearance and feel, but I honestly prefer my Nerds straight up. Speaking of Nerds, the grape/strawberry Nerds were a big hit and the kids had fun making Nerds pictures and letters and playing with them before eating them.

  

  

  The candy we liked the least was the Laffy Taffy. We got the cherry flavor and the sprinkles on top really didn’t do much to counteract the tanginess. My kids managed to choke it down though :)

  As always, I truly appreciate CafeMom giving us the opportunity to try products and tell others about them!! Thank you!

• Ethan loved all the gummies.  He is 4 so those are his favorite types of candy.  My soon to be stepson loved the Nurds and the Taffy.  I ate the nurd rope and loved it. Brought me back to my own childhood.  LOL.  Thanks Wonka we will be getting the gummies again... 

  I checked with my son's preschool and none of this kids in his class this year have allergies so I plan on getting them for a party for Thanksgiving.

• Even though when I opened the box and was amazed at the amount of candy, it went all in one day!

  I live with 5 big pigaroos! lol We didn't think the gushers were very good, but the cherry thing, can't remember the name now, oh my was that good and sour!

  My kids all loved the nerds and classic candies, but the gummies sort of tasted vitaminy, so my kiddos weren't crazy about that.

  Thank you Cafemom and Wonka!!! Sorry it took me this long to respond.
