Which Should You Buy?
This is a love-it-or-hate-it gourmand vanilla, absolutely bursting with candy-sweetness. It's divisive, but fans rave about its elevated, 'grown-up' take on bubblegum and marshmallow, whilst detractors find it cloying and juvenile. If you crave intense sugar, this serves it up by the bucketload.
A candied, bubblegum-forward take on Kayali's Vanilla Candy Rock Sugar - louder and sweeter out of the gate than the original, but noticeably lighter and shorter-lived through the drydown.
