Name: Tootsie Pop Drops
Brand: Tootsie
Description: Fruit flavored hard candies with a Tootsie Roll center
Release Date: Early 2008
Notes: Tootsie Pop Drops will return next year after a long absence from store shelves. This is good news, because it was especially sad that the Blow Pop Minis were on the market (blech) and the obviously superior Tootsie Pop Drops were nowhere to be found.
UPDATE 3/22/2008: They are pretty much like the original, a little smaller but a very good return. Here’s the review with photos.
Name: Reese’s Select Clusters Candy
Brand: Hershey’s
Description: Peanut clusters made with premium ingredients
Release Date: August 2008
Notes: I have no idea how these will be different from regular Reese’s products ... except maybe they’ll improve the quality.
Name: Werther’s Original Caramel Chocolate (Milk & Dark)
Brand: Storck
Description: Rich milk chocolate marbled with smooth, creamy caramel in fine European tradition
Release Date: November 2007
Notes: I actually tried these ... I was hoping for something as rich and satisfying as Storck Chocolate Riesen. Until I can get a hold of the real packaging so I can read the label, I’m not able to do a full review.

Commenting is not available in this channel entry.Oooo! I’m excited to try the Tootsie drops!
I wasn’t a fan of the Werther’s. Just tasted like chocolate… but it WAS pretty.
I want Tootsie Pop Drops! Is there a way I can be one of the first to get them? do you know who I would contact about this? Great site by the way!
Alright! Just as I was really wondering where my Tootsie Drops went…. they’re coming back! I’ve also gotten recently stoked on Jell-O Pudding Pops coming back (under the Popsicle brand… but still the same!). Now I just need my Jello Gelatin Pops to return and I’ll be a happy camper.
