Surprisingly Delicious
These are such a delicious surprise. I am a texture girlie, who loves a sweet snack. These were perfect. They pack a good crunch and are light and airy. Grab these, you won't regret it.

So fun and crunchy!
In my opinion these are even better than the orginal. The crunch on each candy is perfect, and these are so fun to eat! They do break apart very easily, and if you don’t properly seal the bag, they might get stale and slightly chewy, so to maximize your shelf life make sure you store them properly.

Tasty but painful
Flavor is on point! These are super light and appear to have a cotton candy like texture. But they're more like lava rocks look. They're sharp and painful on the roof of the mouth. There are also not many per package. I won't buy them again for this reason. But the flavor profile is sooooo good.

More than half of the bag was crushed powder at the bottom of the bag.

I had a disappointing experience with my recent Drive Up order. I selected driver-side delivery, but the associate came to the passenger side instead. When I attempted to clarify the order, the associate tried to hand me dog food, which I did not purchase. My actual order was six bags of freeze-dried Jolly Ranchers, not pet food. This caused confusion and delayed my pickup. While I understand mistakes can happen, this felt like a lack of attention to the order details.. The associate provided me no further information. I’m actually still sitting in drive up parking spot 8 as I type . No one is answering the phone in any department and I’m about to walk into the store now .

My favorite...this has definitely been in heavy rotation. They have the same flavor as the Jolly Rancher Hard Candy...but these just melt in your mouth! 😍

The best freeze dried candy
These are incredible! They're better than any other freeze tried candy I've tried. Not only do we love jolly ranchers anyways. This enhanced flavor is everything. The perfect freeze dried candy. They're not hard like some other brands. They got the air treat down to a 10! They come in a seal tight container which is a plus. The flavors are everything and you can't go wrong trying these. They're a pretty big size as well.

To sweet and sour

Delicious candy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This freeze dried candy is amazing. It tastes so good and is packed with full Jolly Rancher flavors. It is very light weight and melts in your mouth almost like cotton candy. My children loved it so much. The bag was completely empty within 3 minutes!

Delicious spin off on the original
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was skeptical at first, but freeze dried Jolly Ranchers are actually really good! They keep the same fun flavor as the originals, just with a completely different texture. Instead of being hard and sticky, they’re light and crunchy, almost like little fruity puffs. They dissolve quickly and don’t get stuck in your teeth, which makes them even better. It’s a fun new way to enjoy a classic candy and definitely worth trying.

It was okay
I personally thought they were okay. My friend hated them. She didn’t like how the flavor was stronger. The texture throws me off Tho.

Sweet Treat 💕🍬
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These candies have the same taste as the original Jolly Ranchers. They just have a weird texture similar to Cheese Puffs. I'm not sure if they'll be my favorite but they were fun to try!

Crunchy alternative to the originals
Delicious, but pricey for a bag of 20 candies…especially since many were broken into small pieces. I ration myself to one of each flavor to make them last longer.
