I have yearned for it ever since. Is it still available in it's original form? Does Donofrios still exist?

I am going to Arizona and I saw how they made them and I forgot what they look like and so I just want to know where I can find pictures on them. Does anyone know?

I first ordered the prickly pear candy online back in December 2004. Although the flavor was a bit interesting, the candy was otherwise generic (much like the Sunkist fruit gems). In December 2006, on a trip to the southwest, I bought the candy sampler. The orange and lemon candies were pretty generic as well, and the pomegranate candies did taste a bit like grape jelly. As for your review, it's very informative, and I enjoyed reading it. - Danny I’ve actually tried both of those products before, so i thought that I’d comment.

I don't remember specifically what the flavor was like, but I remember enjoying the jelly.

When I came here I bought a bunch of the candy to bring to my family back in Chicago and everyone was pretty lack-luster about them. All agreed that they did not want more than one. I just brought Maple Carmels from Montreal back and those went over much better. Happy Snacking! : ) Georgina Hello from Phoenix and I have to say I agree.

The ones they featured were shaped like a saguaro cactus, though. <strong>RESPONSE:</strong>They have the cactus-shaped ones on their website. --Brian Oh hey, I think I just saw those on an episode of Unwrapped recently!
