Treasure Box Collection: 16-Piece Multi-Flavor Assortment – Handcrafted Edible Jewelry & ASMR Crystal Candy – Vegan, Gluten-Free Gourmet Gift

These candies are so unique and really delicious. It's a new concept. The edges and exterior are delightfully crunchy, and the inside is soft. The flavor is subtle, but you can tell which it is. I see people complaining about cost, but these products are made by hand by a team of people. Packaged in the most beautiful way I've ever seen candy packaged. Dare I say this packaging is even better than an engagement ring is. This company will continue to have my business, and I hope others will try it despite their opinion on the high price.

I was so excited to order these from Silky Gem especially when I watched many videos advertising from them. They made the candies look and taste so extravagant. How they look in the box-perfect with nice colors, how they taste-pretty much like soap 🧼! They have a crunch with the outer layer but when you get to the filling it’s like eating hardened old jello. Very disappointed. Please do not waste your money or time trying these! You would expect a powerful flavor but there’s nothing but a light taste of soap from grandma’s bathroom.

Let me start by saying that if you are used to eating candies and other “treats” that are synthetically flavored and heavily sweetened, you are probably not going to like these much. I feel like my family eats less junk food than the average American family, so our preferences are just a little different. We have been wanting to try these since seeing them on instagram and TikTok. We had a special family celebration so I ordered some. I got the smallest sampling option and it still came with lots of different flavors as each “cubby” in the box had more than one crystal candy in it. I do wish there was a little guide letting us know what was what, but we still had fun guessing. We enjoyed the light fruity flavors but the funnest part about these is the crunchy exterior paired with the jelly interior. It’s such a great texture. We couldn’t stop munching on them mostly for that reason. We really truly enjoyed it. The inside jelly part is like a firm jell-o type texture, and not like gummy or squishy if that makes sense. It reminds me of those gummies you could get when I was a kid that were shaped like orange wedges and had the granulated sugar on the outside? Quite similar to that. I would also say, getting the sour powder is a must. It elevates the flavor for sure and makes it even more like a delightful confection. Again my family really enjoyed these, and I would gift them but only if I knew for sure that the receiver liked this sort of thing. It’s definitely more about the exciting texture than the flavor per se.

I had this a very long time ago and really enjoyed them. But now it’s just… gross. I highly don’t recommend them because there is so much jelly filling it just ruins it. Biting into it, thin hard crunchy exterior then after that just jelly filling that doesn’t taste good at all and the after taste is worse. I spent 30 bucks expecting it to be really good since I had them long ago and enjoyed them but.. yeah I do not like them at all. I have had a good amount and don’t enjoy the taste of them at all so I’m just going to give them away and hopefully someone I know likes them, but the taste overall is very niche, texture sucks and after taste icks me out. Overall 2.6/10, hard to like, harder to enjoy. Appearance is nice Taste is just weird and I’m not a fan of the aftertaste Texture is super weird, thin crunchy exterior and the inside is a jelly filling, throws me off. I’m very dissatisfied and disappointed was really hyped for this but my nostalgia was wrong. These ick me out with the texture and taste. Overpriced for a let down and I already ate one so I can’t return them :/ Definitely don’t recommend them, if you want to try some, do a smaller batch to see if you even like them.

They’re pretty and i loveeee the texture on the outside but the taste and texture on the inside is not good. The texture is like chewing on chunky boogers, and the taste just isn’t a lot or good. If it could just all be crunchy like the outside i’d give it 4 stars but i just can’t get past the texture. Looks delicious on tiktok but just isn’t. Not worth the money.

I actually love these candies but the last 16 pack i ordered didnt have 16 peices in it so I was very disappointed as these are expensive Qty should be as advertised.

Firstly, they are exactly as expected and as seen on Tiktok. The texture was how I expected it to be and I'm impressed by the variety I was given. I was given three versions of the Lychee flavor, which I was the most excited for, but was unfortunately disappointed. I will say that other reviews with 1-3 stars complaining of texture or taste aren't the most accurate, especially if you don't know what you're getting before you get it. While I probably won't order these again simply because they aren't to my tastes, the brand is worth buying from if you're curious. About 50% of them tasted like the flavor they depicted, but all had a similar taste (probably from the agar agar/gelatin). There is also no ingredients list on the box, so please check the description before buying if you have allergies. They are crunchy/hard on the outside and a sort of harder jello on the inside, with the exception of one which was hard all the way through. The following flavors I received that tasted like the flavors they depicted were: Mixed Berry, Strawberry, Pineapple, Guava, Banana, Honeydew, Coconut Pandan, and Blood Orange (with a special mention of the Passion Fruit Mango, which didn't taste like that flavor but was good). The flavors I received that tasted different or like nothing but sugar and gelatin were: Pickle (I was super excited about this one and was very disappointed), Dragon Fruit, Peach, Pear (tasted like soap), Grapefruit, & Lychee (all 3). While some tasted similar to the flavor, they were all diluted and not very strong, which is disappointing. They'd be better to me if the flavors were stronger and "in your face". Especially the pickle! Don't be afraid of that vinegar flavor! Otherwise, they were all very pretty in appearance.

Yummy as always! It is best to open the box and let them dry a little more for a couple days. Makes them even crunchier. I like buying off Amazon because of the free shipping.
