Had a bad experience with another sweet…

Had a bad experience with another sweet company advertised on Facebook but ordered from coalaSasta and was pleasantly surprised. The sweets came within two days of ordering, and nice to see the packaging is good for the environment. All the sweets I bought tasted great I ordered again

So handy !!

Was so easy to just go on to this site and order lots of sweets for a birthday party. Good value too. And the sweets were a big hit. Will definitely order again.

Loved my order of milo chocolate…

Loved my order of milo chocolate collection sweets. Really like the pick and mix you get at the cinema. Delicious taste. Hopefully when the larger bags are restocked will order more.

Good but dissapointing

Really fast shipping but the mix in each bag was really dissapointing. I bought the multipack to try out different ones but I felt like I ended up with the same sweets in each bag. For the price I don't think I'd be trying it again. The sustainable element to their packaging is really nice though.

Hello Jennifer, thank you for your review & for supporting our little business! Soo.. you ordered the multi buy mix of sweets which comes with an assortment of different sweet mix’s. I feel as though your review is quite harsh given that, your bundle included, Milos Bon Bon mix (1) Milos Chocolate Mix (2) Milos jelly mix (3) Milos sour mix (4) & Milo’s Dreamy Mix (5). To say the sweets were more less the same, has confused us quite a bit, as we have gotten some great feedback in regards to the variety of sweets in our bags. The only overlapping that I can see, would possibly be between the dreamy mix & jelly mix, but there wouldn’t be that much, as the dreamy mix has a lovely selection of American candy & the likes of malteasier & millions mixed fudge.

In response to the price point, I would heavily disagree as for €16 which included 1 free bag, you are getting over 1.5kg of sweets from the worlds biggest brands such as Haribo, Kingsway, Swizzels & so on so forth.

We also get charged near €8 for delivery, but charge you & other customers €5.95.

Thanks again for taking the time to write this review, as we are constantly looking to better our new small business.

Needs a bit of fine tuning

Delivery took longer than stated (even taking into account it was a bank holiday) I found the quality of some of the sweets quite poor, however, having compostable bags is a huge plus and I imagine these minor issues will be ironed out in time.

Thanks for the review Rebecca. In regards to the delivery, your order (07/08/23) was dispatched the next day (08/08/23) as your order was after 11am, which in our T&C’s, any orders after 11am are dispatched the next day. It should have been delivered the next day (09/08/23) via DPD, but unfortunately they didn’t and that is out of our control, as we did everything correct on our end.

About the ‘Quite Poor Sweets’ you picked two of our best sellers which are highly rated so we are sorry that they weren’t up to your standard.

As a new small business we are always trying to ‘Iron Out’ anything that may be wrong, to create a better quality product.

Thanks for taking the time to write this review & we will look into this!

Thanks,
Brendan

Placed a spur of the moment order after seeing a discount code on instagram- absolutely not disappointed in any way!! Each kg bag I received are delicious, probably the nicest mixed sweets I’ve tried and I’ve tried a lot 😂 Price point is also great! Customer service on instagram is fantastic. Service and delivery was so quick. Delighted to see an Irish company doing well! Keep it up ⭐️
