Cheri's Desert Harvest Prickly Pear Cactus Jelly Candies, 12 Pieces, 8.5 Ounces

I love the taste.

My son’s fiancés sister traveled all the way from Australia, where the girls grew up, to Tucson, Az USA where I live. We are always giving each other gifts that represent our two countries and the state/city which we live. I decided to give your Prickly Pear Jelly and Prickly Pear Candy which represents Tucson, Az perfectly. The gift was perfect, she Loved it and thought the gift was a true represents Tucson and Arizona. She passed the box of the Prickly Pear Candy around at Christmas and Everyone loved the taste of the candy. It was a hit for our Christmas. I think it would be a perfect gift for any occasion, or if you just like Prickly Pear Cactus. I highly recommend this product, it’s real good you wont be disappointed.😋

These are some of the best prickly pear jellies I have ever tasted! Having lived in the Tucson area for fourteen years, I am quite familiar with the prickly pear fruits. These jellies are very similar in taste to the fresh fruit, with perhaps a wee bit more lemon or citrus taste, due to the cooking process. These are truly unadulterated, natural candies, suitable for children as well as adults. They are coated with granulated sugar (unlike Turkish jellies which are coated with icing sugar), so they may be a bit sweet for some people. These are a very nice change from the usual sweet. W. H.

I bought these for the health benefits of prickly cactus, not the taste. I had never eaten anything with this before. First off these gummies are huge so I had to cut them into quarters, not a bad thing since there is actually 48 servings versus 12. I don't think anyone has a large enough mouth to eat one full gummy or even half of one. They taste pretty good plus they really do soothe the throat and esophagus which is why I bought them. I would give 5 stars if they didn't contain corn syrup (no matter what companies say, corn syrup is manufactured garbage that doesn't belong in the food supply) and if they came cut into quarters. It would be beneficial to the company as well since they could mention 48 servings instead of just 12. I will most likely re-order them in the future unless I can find one without corn syrup.

I grew up on this stuff. It’s my FAVORITE. Unfortunately the box I received was rock hard and inedible. Very disappointed—I was looking forward to delighting in the memories these candies bring to me. Can’t return and there doesn’t seem to be a refund options so I’m sitting here double bummed…

Have been craving the cactus flavor recently after not having any for over 30 years. Am thrilled to have found this organic brand. This candy is fresh and so delicious. I also highly recommend Cheri’s prickly pear syrup and jam. Amazing to discover this on Amazon and just found many other items to try on her website!!! Thanks to Cheri for sharing these amazing delights with us.

I had "cactus candy" years ago and remember it having a jelly like taste and texture. These did not. I don't know if I received a stale box or if this was how they are; either way I was disappointed. The date on the box stated they were still good. The candies were hard and had no flavor except the sugar coating. Would not recommend to anyone.

These are so delicious. We had them while we were vacationing in Arizona and fell in love with them. They are the perfect sweet treat!
