A tad too sweet and artificial-tasting but still addictively good
Crap. I bought these because I was having a chocolate craving and don’t like plain chocolate, and now I’m addicted to these things. They remind me of chocolate covered cranberries I’ve had at Cape Cod. They’re sweet (a tad sweeter than I’d like, but not crazy sweet), tangy, and have great fruity centers. The cherry part is almost edging toward Sour Patch Kid territory, but in a good way. I mean, fruit is sweet but also tangy and sometimes tart, so it works. The texture and taste of the chocolate is a bit off for me. I wish it was a bit darker and more intense and a bit less waxy, but I imagine the waxiness is necessary to create the coating without them sticking to one another. I do wish they were a tad more real-cherry and less candy-cherry, but these “I wish it was a bit more…” didn’t stop me from polishing off the bag in three sittings (and that was using restraint) and I’ve already ordered two more bags.

Not real cherries!
I thought it had real cherries! The dark chocolate is good, but too sugary with the cherry flavored sugar pieces inside.

Not good flavor
I love the other Brookside chocolate flavors, but this one is disgusting. My entire family agrees that it tastes like cherry medicine.

Don't waste your money!
Brookside used to be good quality. Unfortunately, it is awful now. Fake junky ingredients. Into the garage it goes!

Fake cherry flavor
I accidentally ordered this instead of the pomegranate ones. I’m not sure if it’s supposed to taste so artificial but we were not fans of this chocolate.

New favorite candy
Love this! New favorite Candy hands down. I love fruit flavored chocolates, like orange and raspberry, chocolate covered cherries, this by far exceeds those. I recommend, you'll love it.
