Jujubes Candy Theatre Box, 5.5 Ounce (Pack of 12)

I see a few reviews saying that the glue wasn’t very strong on the box and so it dried out the candy and they are stale. That tells me one thing: you are not the target market for this candy. Please stop ordering it. And definitely stop complaining to Amazon. They are SUPPOSED to be hard and a little stale feeling. That is their defacto. If you don’t like it, then don’t order them. If you want something slightly softer and squishier, I recommend trying jujyfrutes. If those are still too hard for you, just order Dots. These are not small Dots. They are harder and taste different. Please stop leaving bad reviews for a product you simply don’t understand. (Stepping off soap box)

I have loved Jujubes for probably 50 years now and this is the only place I can find them anymore. I like them best when they are a little stale: Hard, but chewy when you suck on them for a while. I have had trouble with ordering them on Amazon in the past when they were crunchy and brittle (?!?) but I finally tried again and this time they are soft and chewy and flavorful. Way too fresh for me, but my husband now loves them and I'm not sure if I'll be able to keep them hidden until they harden up so I can enjoy them the way I remember! Amazon's got a good batch right now!!! (March 2023)

Jujubes are by far my favorite candy (and have been for long time). Taste wise they are similar to the much more common Jujyfruit candy's except they are smaller, a bit more firm, and have in my opinion have a much bolder flavor.Cost wise, this product on Amazon is a bit more expensive than the price I can find in stores (which for Jujubes is becoming more difficult to find in store).Quality wise, the cases that I have gotten from Amazon have been significantly fresher than boxes that can be bought at a local store. The ones in local stores tend to be extremely hard from age (sometimes to the point where they cannot be eaten), However every box I have gotten from Amazon has been fresh (i.e firm but not teeth shattering hard) which is why I buy Jujubes almost exclusively from here (even though its a 30% markup of the price in my local store).One small negative I will add is that they no longer offer Jujubes shirts for sale on the back of the boxes =(.Overall amazing candy, you cannot go wrong buying from here.

I love jujubes and it is getting harder and harder to find these in stores. These are exactly as I remember them from when I was a kid. They are fairly firm unless they happen to be on the warmer side, but I like this because it means they last longer. It does give me a bit of a jaw ache if I eat too many from trying to chew them but I find them strangely addictive event considering how mild they are in taste. Interestingly, my kids were not big fans. Jujube lovers will be very happy with this.

I’ve loved these since I was a kid. They are the real thing, but unfortunately they are harder than they are supposed to be. Jujubes are not a chewy candy like Jujyfruit. They are harder to chew. These, however are almost crunchy. If that doesn’t bother you and you let them soften in your mouth like I do, then I recommend them.

I love Jujubes, and this set is great! They're fresh (still a bit soft - not hard and dried-out like they eventually get), and obviously tasty. Highly recommend if you happen to need a ton of Jujubes like I apparently did.

Jujubes are my childhood favorite candy. It used to be that you could find them in nearly every supermarket, drugstore, gas station or minimart. I think that was when they were manufactured by Heide. A few years ago, they began to disappear from all the usual stores, even though they are still made. Although the Heide sub-brand still exists, the company was bought in 2012 by Ferrara, and the candy is now manufactured in Mexico and much harder to find. Along with Jujyfruits, Heide's other gummy candy, which is a bit easier to find. I love the texture and the flavor of these very simple candies, and have fond memories of eating large boxfuls in the theater as a little girl. Nothing special, but if you love them like I do, this is a great place to find them as they seem to have all but disappeared in retail stores in the US where I've looked.

OLD SCHOOL CANDY, HARD TO FIND NOWADAYS. FRESHNESS IS NEVER GUARANTEED DESPITE EXP DATE. THESE WERE FAIR, BUT IV'E HAD FRESHER.
