De La Rosa Pulparindo Mango, 0.5 oz. - Buy a 20 piece box for $4.00

I have received one of these gummies in all of my Bocandy boxes so far! My husband is obsessed with this snack because it is very spicy. The main ingredients are pulp of a tamarind fruit and chili peppers. With each bite, you get some of the pulp which makes the gummy taste a bit grainy and then that super chili spice. This really is a unique candy!

Kinder Country, 23.5 g - Buy a box of 3 for $23.95

I received this little bar of chocolate in my last Bocandy box and was obsessed with it! I gobbled this bar down quickly, no time to share! The milk cream filling mixed with the rice puffs is this rich fluffy goodness. The outer chocolate layer is so sweet, it just melts together perfectly with the filling. Keep sending these little bars of goodness Bocandy!

Bananko, 1.05 oz. - Buy a 36-pc box for $19.99

This little banana shaped treat was so good and full of banana flavors! The outer chocolate shell was hallow and crumbles in your mouth. The inside was a little tricky to pinpoint what exactly it was made of. I thought it would be a banana flavored cake, but it tasted more like a marshmallow fluff. It was very sweet and you could really taste the crunch of sugar. You really can't go wrong with banana, chocolate, and a lot of sugar!

Elitesse de Luxe, 20 g - Retail Value $0.16 USD

I think this was my favorite treat of the month! Unlike other wafer cookies that I have tried before, this was filled with a rich creamy center. Normally you get more of the wafer taste, but this cookie really packed this incredible creaminess. The wafer was just that added crunchy bonus.

Draze Korsarz Kokosowe, 20 g. - Retail Value $0.38 USD

This little candy is a chocolate covered ball of coconut. When you first bite into the treat it seems to be a hallow shell, but you quickly see that it is a coconut center! I really wish I liked coconut, but I am still struggling to love it - even when it is covered in chocolate. My Mom loves coconut though so she was happy to take this little bag chocolate and coconut yumminess.

Milka Oreo, 100 g - Retail Value $1.99 (found on sale here for $1.49)

This chocolate bar was gigantic, plenty to share with friends and family. The outer layer is this delicious chocolate, but when you get to the center, Oreo explosion! You basically have a deconstructed Oreo in the middle, the creamy filling with the chocolate cookie bites throughout. So much chocolate! Safe to say that this was my second favorite treat of the month, and so good I might be buying more of these to put in my families stockings this holiday!

Miguelito Chamoy Powder - Buy a 100-pc box for $5.49

I received this treat in my last Bocandy box. This really is more for cooking with rather than snacking on. It is very spicy with mild hints of sugar. You could add it as a spice to chicken or even put it over some cheese. The more research that I have done on this little treat, I noticed that a lot of reviewers said it reminded them of summer. So maybe you could even add a sprinkle on some ice cream for a little bit of sweet and spicy. This really is such a unique item that you can do so much with!

Verdict: Bocandy is the perfect box for anyone with a sweet tooth like myself! Anything chocolate is my favorite so I love that Bocandy has been sending more and more chocolate treats. This is my third time receiving a Bocandy box, and I have noticed that I get some of the same items each month. I would love to see a bit more variety and newer items next month that will challenge my tastebuds. The great thing about snack boxes is that you can really learn and discover about snacks from around the world.

To Wrap Up:

Can I still get this box if I sign up today? As of today, 11/12, you will start receiving the November box.

Value Breakdown: The monthly cost of this box is $9.99 + shipping. I received a total of seven treats in this box, which averages out $1.42 per snack. Most of the treats I received this month seem to be smaller items with a lower price point. Overall, I don't think the value per item met the monthly cost this month. I would love to see a few bigger items like the Milka Oreo bar or maybe a few more treats in each box to bring that overall value up a bit more.

Hallow means holy, so unless the banana treat has been blessed by The Pope – I think you mean hollow.
