Fliptz

Sometimes, a girl just wants a sweet and salty snack to munch on.  When I passed by the Flipz fudge coated pretzels, I couldn't resist.  Why am I on such a snack food kick these days?

Update Review, January 2026

Milk Chocolate.
"The OG of snack time and the Flipz® squad. Rich milk chocolate combined with salty, crunchy pretzels makes Flipz® Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels a snacking staple and favorite for all occasions."

These are fine, basic, milk chocolate pretzels.  The chocolate is creamy and just a notch above mediocre, sorta Hershey quality.  The pretzels are crunchy and well salted.  All pieces are evenly coated, none broken in my bag.  Basically, absolutely fine, but not notable in any way.  3/5, higher side.

Original Review: March 2013

White Fudge Coated Pretzels.
"The darling of the Flipz® squad, the one who wears white after Labor Day (and makes it look good). Salty, crunchy pretzels layered in creamy white fudge are the perfect snack to celebrate a sweet victory over deadlines, traffic, or even a long day."

My initial review of these was not good: the pretzels were pretty generic, a bit of salt on them.  The white fudge coating was kinda waxy and uninteresting, just sweet.  They met my desire to have something munchy, but not really the sweet and salty combo I was looking for.  I would not get again.

But since I had a full bag, I tried to find interesting uses for them.  One that I came up with, in a stroke of pure randomness, was dunking them into my butterscotch Snack Pack.  I didn't really like the butterscotch pudding.   I didn't really like the Flipz.  I wanted to like them both far more than I did.  But ... they actually combined in a way that made them greater than the sum of their parts.  Not that I really would get either again, but, it really worked.  So uh, if you have mediocre pudding and strange sweet pretzels, I recommend trying to combine them.  If nothing else, it is fun to at least dunk the pretzels in the pudding, and eat with your hands :)
