 great honey candiesMay 17, 2009
By the original sweet tooth
"Tina"
these candies filled with real honey are not too sweet, a good dessert substitute and great for moistening the throat in low humidity days. I will definitely reorder. Tina, Irvine, CA

Lovely treatSep 14, 2010
By Gracie
These are perfect. They have a great honey taste and lots of liquid honey inside. If they were any bigger they would be too sweet.
 Cedrinca Miele Honey CandyJan 26, 2012
By Kristen Davis
I bought these for my wedding because I'm marrying into a Miele family and they really don't taste very good at all. I won't buy them again. They taste like nothing and everyone who tried them with me spit them back on. Take my word on it.
Good candy and better medicine!Aug 14, 2011
By E. Swope
I came back here to order more of these after my 13 year old tore through several bags. I want to stock up before he goes back to school , and inevitably, brings home the usual colds.
As candy goes, these are very nice and better for you than most. It is basically honey inside a sugar shell. I like that there are no weird unnatural ingredients (like high fructose corn syrup) and, honey being a natural antibiotic, makes these the ideal cough drop.... which is why I am writing this review. We somehow misplaced (that is, I put away) 5 of the 6 bags. I went to get one, having a sore throat from a bout of awful weather, and my son told me "There is only 1 left and I am saving it for when I have a cold," which is when I realized I ought to come back and order some more.
Now I should warn you, if you have not gathered as much, that these are highly addictive ;) Amazon sells these in 5 packs, which could be trouble for some.... so maybe hide them from yourself for when they are needed. For me this will be something of a challenge as I have to hide them from myself and my kids. If you like honey you should enjoy these as that is most of what is in here. It is however, more portable since it is wrapped in a candy shell and plastic. I plan to keep some in my purse for when I have a dry throat and keep some on hand for cold and flu season. Unlike the drops which are advertised for colds & flu these actually could speed your recovery as well as offer symptomatic relief.

Best honey-filled hard candies I've tasted!Apr 22, 2010
By Fair_weather_fan
I decided to try these Cedrinca candies mainly because they are eligible for free shipping (many of the "gourmet" products are not). They are REALLY GREAT, and have the most intense honey flavor of any filled or unfilled honey candies that I have tasted. The filling consists of quite a dollop of honey, so the candies are fairly large, and for a hard candy addict like myself, it's not practical to suck on them when I'm trying to carry on a conversation, or just have a hard candy discreetly in public. For those situations I would recommend the Go Naturally honey candies, which are much smaller, and also eligible for free shipping. In fact, the Cedrinca honey candies are so addictive that I keep them in an inconvenient drawer, so that I have time to think "do I really need another one?" before getting them out. On the downside, in addition to sugar and honey, the Cedrinca candies do contain "glucose syrup," which according to Wikipedia is the same as corn syrup (I don't know if it's high-fructose corn syrup or not). The Go Naturally products contain just "Organic Evaporated Cane Juice, Organic Brown Rice Syrup, & Organic Honey" - so they might be more suitable for people who are trying to avoid corn syrup.
