Nova Maple Candy - Pure Maple Syrup Sugar Leaf Candy (16 Ounces (1 Pound))

Very good maple sugar candy. It must have been made from this year's maple tree sap run. The season starts when the winter weather ends, the temperatures start rising and the sap starts running. They then tap the tree, collect the sap and boil it down to make the syrup and candy.It came packaged in a vacuum-tight sealed bag. The candy was very soft and started hardening after a few days of being open. I was worried about ordering any maple sugar candy from any company, due to all of the review comments about dried-out, hard candy. The way Nova packaged it prevented it from drying out before it arrived. There are flyers in the packaging to let you know to consume the product soon after opening, with about a 3-month expiration date. I am not sure if this way of packaging works longer than the 3-month expiration date, or if they make the candy fresh throughout the year and package it this way. I sure hope so, as I want to be able to order it all year long and not just after the sugar run.Thanks Nova, for packing your candy to keep it fresh and soft. It's the way soft maple sugar candy should be.

These are so delicious! Crystallized maple syrup has a texture and way of melting in your mouth that nothing else does. Absolutely with the money! They are a bit expensive for being candy, but totally worth it. Nice quality! Kind of buttery. Very maple-y! You won’t regret it except for the indulgent guilt you’ll get for enjoying something so extraordinary.

Absolutely delicious! If you get this when it’s summer or just hot you should expect a bit of melting. When I get it I throw it in the fridge and that fixes the issue.

Stale, non-returnable. I just received these today. I consider myself a maple candy connoisseur. The best maple candies are tender, melt in your mouth delicacies with a thin maple sugar crunch on the perimeter. Also, some of the candies appear pale along the edge as if they have been freezer burned. This experience is more like eating maple butter that was smeared into molds then left out to harden and get stale. Not at all what I expect for this kind of money. If I wanted maple butter, I would have bought a jar for half the price.

I’ve tried several brands of pure maple sugar candy, and this is by far the best. It literally melts in your mouth…they’re so fresh and good! I love them, and just one or two is enough sweetness to be satisfying.

It's too creamy. Not the sugary candy I remember as a kid. Good flavor but I wanted that gritty texture.

I get these every year for Christmas. Love them.

Good, but not a whole lot of maple flavor.
