Bubblemint? Bubblemint? Oh yes, you read that right. Wrigley's have come up with quite the flavour combination here; classic bubblegum and fresh mint. It's a new one to me, and as someone who loves the flavour of Wrigley's Juicy Fruit gum but values her teeth too much to chew it, I was eager to give this gum a try. Wrigley's Extra is known as being a sugar free gum and that doesn't change here with this Bubblemint flavour.
But what would a hybrid of fruity bubblegum and mint actually taste like? At first there is a burst of traditional bubblegum Juicy Fruit type flavour, so far so good, but then it's followed by a quick burst of refreshing mint. Just as my taste buds were getting used to the strange combination, the mint flavour subsided and only the fruity bubblegum flavour was left. The result is very successful - a classic bubblegum but with a fresher edge to it. It's just a shame that they are not bright pink in colour like a real bubblegum!

ReplyDelete:) I saw something like this is Dallas. There's loads of different flavours out there!
ReplyDeleteYes, we've got nothing on the Americans when it comes to gum! Wrigley's do a great range of "dessert" inspired flavours over there.
DeleteBeing a chewing gum addict I really hope they will start selling this somewhere close to me!
ReplyDeleteOh and I wanted to tell you how much I love your blog! Or hate it whenever you write about delicious sounding products I will never be able to buy haha. But even then I love to read your lovingly written reviews :)
