Barely better than a Kraft caramel

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Fleur de Sel Caramels:

Don't bother if you are a caramel fan and a salted caramel fan. The Trader Joe version was far superior to this one for a fraction of the price for more caramels. Salt caramels are a wonderful product to carry for foodies but this version was a really low-grade, dry-ish corn syrup caramel with barely any salt flavor.

Comments about Fleur de Sel Caramels:

These caramels were very tasty the first day. However, nothing on the smart little balsa wood box indicated they needed refridgeration. By the second day, after sitting in a snack cabinet, the caramels started to go bad! I didn't know such a thing could occur. The flavor turned sour and they started to smell rancid.

Comments about Fleur de Sel Caramels:

Box contained 12 TINY caramels, each about half the size of a Kraft's caramel. Taste was extremely ordinary, not buttery or rich. Fleur de sel was not evident. Better off buying Werther's originals and sprinkling on your own sea salt.
