These were very good, but not spectacular. The caramel really stuck (with or without wax paper) and was quite chewy the first night. They were easier to eat the next day and held up well for the week they lasted. We enjoyed them, but ultimately didn't find the caramel to be much of an enhancement, though we are caramel lovers.
