Candy Review: Mirror Mints - Purse pleasing tins and tasty mints

Tuesday, December 4, 2007 - by Brian

Recently we reviewed a mint that is completely made and marketed for men: Wrench Mints. Today, we bring you the exact opposite - Mirror Mints from Little i. What makes these so appealing to women? Cute pink packaging screams girlie-cute, but the one thing that puts these over the top is the mirror. Each tin has a built-in mirror so you can check your look while popping a mint.

The mints come in variety of flavors like chocolate and citrus, but the review samples I got were all peppermint. The mints are sweetened with sorbitol and Splenda and are as good as any other peppermint you’ll find. Realistically though, you buy these for the packaging. I thought it was a cute idea and when I showed them to my wife she said it was an awesome idea and immediately claimed the review samples for herself.

They even have a tin that is specifically made to be reused as a business card holder. It fits business cards, has a built-in mirror, and comes with mints! Who could ask for more?

Little i also makes gum that come in similar mirror tins. The gum is sweetened with Xylitol and comes in original peppermint flavor. They also make an “energy” gum containing taurine and B vitamins. The gum containers also have mirrors in them and have the same “flip” dispenser.

If you’re looking for a great gift for a woman in your life, you can’t possibly go wrong with a tin of gum or mints from Little i. You can find them in more than 4,000 specialty retailers selling the line in the U.S. including salons, gift stores, stationary stores, spas, gourmet food stores - pretty much anywhere that women shop. All Target stores carry the Mirror Mints also. They can also be purchased online (links below).
