Sour Patch Kids were launched in the UK last year there, with at least one new variant; the Soda Popz (review HERE), being released this year already. Now there is also a rather macabre Halloween Limited Edition in the form of these gruesome Sour Patch Kids Heads & Bodies!
Despite the fact that the sweets consist of severed heads and headless bodies, they still manage to look quite fun! There are only two flavours of sweets in the pack; blackcurrant and orange, but it's a very clever idea because it means that all the sweets are black & orange in color - which are obviously the perfect colours for Halloween. The flavours are very good too, nicely fruity, and with a mildly sour coating that soon gives way to a more sugary finish.
I was really impressed by these Limited Edition Heads & Bodies, they're just on the right side of gory for kids to enjoy at Halloween!
