CaffeMallows

Caffeinated marshmallows? Oh, yeah!!!!

Packaging
The CaffeMallows are packaged in sets of 3 or 4. The three I am reviewing come in a rectangle plastic box, frosted on the sides and clear on the top and bottom. It gives it quite a nice minimalist look. Each mallow is individually wrapped and labelled inside. The labels are in red/orange tones, the Mocha label being the darkest and the coffee label the lightest. Each label sports the name of the mallow and a lip print logo, as if the packages have been kissed.

Taste
Java: Java Mallows have a great strong coffee flavor, like a double shot espresso (because that's what it has in it!). There is a strong cinnamon and vanilla and caramel combination in the flavor as well, which I really enjoyed. It is sweet, but not syrupy sweet. It has a really good texture, kind of dense, more so than a normal jet puffed marshmallow. I think this gives it a unique quality that you don't get in every day marshmallows.

Coffee: The Coffee Mallow is quite a bit more subtle in flavor than the Java Mallow. It is "Double Coffee". It almost tastes like a normal coffee with creme and sugar. The vanilla, cinnamon, caramel flavor is not as strong in this one as in the Java Mallow. However it is still quite delicious.

Mocha:The Mocha Mallow has a good coffee flavor as well as a rich chocolate flavor. It also adds a different twist to the texture with little bits of chocolate in it as well, or cocoa nibs as in the ingredients.

Energy
Right away I can tell my energy is up quite a bit and I'm feeling more awake after eating one of these. Although I like to cut them into thirds, that way I can have a bit of each one instead of having to wait until I eat another flavor! Each mallow contains 200 mg of caffeine, except the Java Mallow, which contains 280 mg of caffeine. That's a real boost! They really work fast too. The energy keeps me going for about 4 hours or so.

Overall Impression
I really enjoyed CaffeMallows. They have a rich flavor that makes getting caffeinated far more enjoyable than some energy drinks make it! And the energy is fast and long lasting.

Review Blog

I would like to start reviewing products on this page. It may or may not go anywhere. I have wanted to do reviews for a while, and thought "Hey, why not just start a blog where I can post my reviews aside from my personal blog!" So I created this blog.

I would like to review energy drinks and tech stuff. I have done a review on a couple of energy drinks before. I posted one for RootJack on my personal blog. I will probably bring that one over here to this blog also, just so I can get it going. I don't have any new drinks or anything to review at the moment, but would like to post some reviews of some I have tried in the recent past. I did just get a Crush Lime a couple days ago for the first time, so I will put up my thoughts on it in the coming days. Let me know what you want to see reviewed! I enjoy trying new things. I have not done many tech reviews. Although I do have opinions about some of the tech things I do have.

I also get free samples of things to try every once in a while. So I may post some reviews about those things too. Like today, I just received a Republic Of Tea magazine with a sample of one of their teas in it. So we will see where this blog goes, if it gets off the ground, and I get my fingers busy typing! I hope to get responses from people. Whether you stumble on the site from somewhere else or you know me in person, let me know what you would like to see here!
