I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I still liked these candies. The apricot flavor really shines through.

I was disappointed with these candies. They were too hard and chewy for my liking.

These candies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed them. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These candies are a great way to use up leftover dried apricots. I always have a bag of them in my pantry.

I'm alérgico a las nueces, así que sustituí las almendras por semillas de girasol. ¡Siguieron siendo deliciosos!
