Andy Anand Spanish Soft Nougat with Candied Orange Peel & Roasted Almonds - 7 oz Wildflower Honey Turron, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Soy-Free Gourmet Gift

Expensive, but worth every penny if you are looking for a delicious torrone. If a fiend or family member asked me where to get a nice torrone, I would absolutely recommend. I have actually proactively told people about it now that I think about it. I said "Bro have you ever heard of torrone? It's super good and it was about 7 bucks for a king size sized bar. Do yourself a favor bro." Really though, it is visually appealing and just writing this review made me decide to order a box when I get home. It would make the perfect gift for someone who likes candy or even just for someone you care about or Christmas present.

First compare this photo with the photo of the product on the advertisement. Enough said. There is very little orange taste because of the sweetness. Did not find any orange peel or other fruit. At $2 plus per ounce, more than good steak. The produce leaves an after taste like that of the freeze dried astronaut ice cream you buy at the Kennedy Space Center Gift shop. It says the product is wrapped in eatable rice paper. There was a thin strip if rice paper along one edge the 1/2 thickness of the product. I am writing this review because I don't want people to make the same mistake $14 mistake I made. Keep you money and spend it on a nice steak. My comments are honest.

They are delicious

I had this item in my cart and, I accidentally purchased it before really looking into it. This review is based off of my experience which seems to be much better than some others, their reviews indicate a quality control issue. I have never purchased from this company nor have I ever had this flavor of candy before so I had no preconceived expectations. See pictures for better visual of my descriptions. The candy slice was packed in a box and the slice itself was in a cellophane bag. It is 200g and about 7”x2”x.75” , light tan color, not excessively soft or hard. Like most true nougats it had a firm, smooth texture that softens from the warmth of your mouth as you chew it. There is rice paper on the bottom of the slice and until I realized what it was, I was very upset I could not peel it off. For me, the orange flavor was lacking, I tasted the sweetness first, then the honey flavor came out, followed by almond, then the slight orange essence. It is made in small batches with just a few simple ingredients and reminds me of the little candy shops you would find in quaint downtown areas, coastal shops, or open markets. If I had read the reviews, I probably wouldn’t have ordered it and I would have missed out on a nice treat.

the nougat was soft and fresh, orange & honey flavors excellent, the almonds were crunchy love this Turin nougat. However, there were some rancid hazelnuts on the candy, hazelnuts are not listed as an ingredient so why are those on there? we removed the nasty hazelnuts and enjoyed the candy !!

So you get one bar for $12 I expect for that price for it to be beautifully packaged in a box, this thing came in Saran Wrap, so smashed that I’m sitting picking the Saran Wrap out of the food, I tried to take a bite and got plastic in my mouth even after I though I finally got it all off, my nails are imbedded with this thing as I had to pick out the plastic from it, forget about getting it as a gift and even for yourself it will not be pleasant, I will say that it’s very very soft and nice, I would have loved to actually enjoy it, if it came packaged properly, I bought a bunch of these in Lithuania for about $1 each and they were amazing and thought I’ll try this one for $12 🤣 I could have gotten 12 of them got $12 and packaged nice and not smashed. It’s def a rip off for what you get.

I see that my review from last year was included and it was very genuinely meant and I look forward to this frankly since last year and it arrived today hard as a rock clearly not fresh and for $16 it was just inappropriate. I feel like I should be given a fresh product or my money back I’m not a wealthy person and that was $16 and change out of $50 that my little brother who’s not wealthy either gave me as a Christmas present so I love Andy and Ann‘s work when it’s at its best and I’ve mentioned his products to many people so please read this and really respond to me. I’m very very loyal member of your Prime family. (I’ve reposted or allowed to you to repost from last year my review which sadly does not stand this year.) I grew up loving Italian torrone, and, because I really love orange zest, combined with wildflower honey and fresh roasted almonds , this turrón has already become my favorite after one small taste! I will buy this again, and share with friends and family. Thank you, Andy Anand, for such a fine quality confection!

I could have sat and eaten the whole thing at one sitting. It really tasted great and was very fresh when it arrived. I haven't had this since I was a child, so it was nice to see it for sale. I am in my 60's so that is a long time ago. I shared it with mom, she loved it too. It was expensive, but a little bit goes a long way, so it lasted a long time. I would buy this again.
