Maple Sugar Candies by L.B. Maple Treat

1/2/2014

Comments

 
Throughout December our International Snack blog was dedicated to reviewing British Snacks in anticipation of the launch of our online store.  Now the store is open, we will continue our search for the best snacks in the world.  Today we are heading north, to Canada to review a snack by L.B. Maple Treat Company. 
The L.B. Maple Treat Company is based out of Grandby, in the outskirts of Montreal Canada.  As a producer of a variety of high-quality Maple syrups, spreads, cookies, candies, and gift packages, L.B. Maple has grown from a 52-acre farm in 1975 to a 100,000 square foot facility and is now a leader in the Maple industry.  They currently produce a range of products under the L.B. Maple Treat Brand, Uncle Luke’s Maple Syrup, and an assortment of private label offerings.  Our Canadian snack under review today is Maple Sugar Candies by L.B. Maple Treat.

Our snack came in a cardboard rectangular sleeve with a transparent window to highlight the candies. The surrounding graphics appear to be maple trees and the overall presentation has a very autumn feel to it.  The Maple Sugar Candies themselves are placed into dark red cups and appear rather high-end and appetizing without even having to open the box.  Well, how do Maple Sugar Candies by L.B. Maple Treat taste?

To be honest we were excited to be reviewing something other than a British Snack.  We love snacks from England, but being this is World of Snacks, we need variety!  That being said, the excitement did not linger through the tasting of these Maple Sugar Candies.  We do have to admit upfront all tasters are familiar with Maple Syrup, but not with candy made from maple.  The candy itself is very hard and nearly rock like.  The taste, well its pretty much solid sugar with a maple hint.  Overall the sweetness was too powerful and the texture did not help.  It led one tester to doing some research of their own to make sure this snack wasn’t intended to be dropped into a cup of hot tea.  Overall, no one really appreciated this snack for what it is.
Will World of Snacks add Maple Sugar Candies by L.B. Maple Treat to the international snack store?  We are not so sure that we will.  We do want to explore other snack items offered by L.B. Maple Treat but this one didn’t do it for us.  So far our store only offers British Snacks, but each month this year we will add a new country and their best cookies, cakes, candies, and chips to our inventory.  In February we are expanding to include American Snacks.  For March, we haven’t decided yet.  Help us choose which snacks to offer by voting for your favorites.  Also to stay up-to-date and receive special offers be sure to leave your details to the right.  Keep on snacking world!
