My brother brought back these guava and passionfruit chocolates from his recent vacation to Costa Rica.

They're fruit gels. Nothing remarkable except I get to add Costa Rica to my list.

  3. O_O I've never had a fruit gel with chocolate before! The packaging looks very tempting with the large photos of the chocolate and each type of fruit.
