Evan and I tested chocolate candies for our consumer project. We tested Take 5, M&Ms, Fifth Avenue, and Hershey’s with almonds. For each
candy we rated the following qualities to discover which candy is the best: softness, taste, taste combination, and creaminess. We based the scale from 1-5, 5 being the best.
Scale: 1 = bad 2= somewhat 3 = okay 4 = very good 5 = great
Take 5
A Take 5 is a chocolate candy bar with pretzels in it. It tastes crunchy because of the pretzels. A combination of chocolate and pretzels is not good to put together because the taste does not blend well. Evan and I figured that because of the poor candy combination it was the worst candy we ever tasted.
M&M
An M&M has the chocolate on the inside and the color coated candy shell on the outside. It weighs .8 oz. It costs 80 cents per oz. This was the most expensive candy we tested. Although it was the most expensive, it was the creamiest, tastiest, softest, and the best candy combination. The M&Ms have an added bonus: they taste sweet! With all the perfect combinations, Evan and I recommend M&M candies to every chocolate loving consumer.
Hershey w/ Almonds.
The Hershey w/ almonds was good. It had the right amount of softness. It was .68 cents per oz. When we scaled it’s creaminess it came out 2.5. Then taste which was 3, so was softness. The taste combination was a little too crunchy, so we gave it a 2.5. That measured up to 11.
Fifth Ave.
The fifth ave was really crunchy. The taste was 1.5. It was .66 cents per oz. The creaminess was 1.5 because of the crunchiness. The taste was a 3. It wasn’t soft so it was a 1. The taste combination was good so it was a 3. That measured to 8.5.
Frankie and I recommend the mnm’s because they’re sweet.
Its obvious which candy you guys like the best.

ReplyDeletei think .80 cents per ounce is a rip off. thts a lil too much. i mean they're good, but not worth the price. and i like the hersheys with almonds the most,out of all of them. the take five i never had, but i thnk i wunna try it. i like chocolate pretzels so i wld probably like it
