For those adults who have forgotten the taste of breast milk and are curious to know what it tastes like, an Austin-based candy company takes this curiosity a little further by allowing the inquisitive adults to recapture their infancy with the launch of new breast milk-flavored lollipops.
Austin-based candy company Lollyphile has announced the launch of a range of breast milk-flavored lollipops for children as well as adults. These lollipops are vegan and do not contain any breast milk, rather they are a candified version of the original breast milk flavor.
"I don't know if it's because I'm getting older, but it seems like all of my friends are having babies these days. Sure, the kids are all crazy cute, but what slowly dawned on me was that my friends were actually producing milk so delicious it could turn a screaming, furious child into a docile, contented one. I knew I had to capture that flavor," Jason Darling, the owner of the firm, was quoted as saying in Fox News.
The company was able to produce the candified version of the lollipops with the help of mothers who shared their breast milk with flavor specialists, who in turn successfully managed to mimic the flavor and recreate a breast milk lollipop.
Lollyphile takes complete pride in introducing various new lollipop flavors that don't exist anywhere else. The new breast milk lollipop is made of sugar, corn syrup and different natural flavors, and is completely vegan.
Unlike the breast milk ice cream that was a huge hit two years ago in London, these soft beige color lollipops with no real breast milk can be purchased online for $2.50 each, or a case of 36 for $58.
Lollyphile also produces lollipops in other unique flavors such as maple bacon, Sriracha, habanero tequila, chocolate bacon and absinthe.
Food lovers with a taste for the unusual and quirky will surely have something unique to feast their tastebuds on.
