Tamarind Filling & Chili-Lime Seasoning

Tamarind Filling & Chili-Lime Seasoning

The star of Skwinkles Rellenos Tamarindo is the real tamarind pulp we pack into every straw. We source tamarind for its natural tangy sweetness, then blend it with our chili-lime seasoning to create the bold flavor Mexican candy fans crave.

The outer licorice shell is soft and pliable, designed to squeeze easily without tearing. Unlike hard candy tubes, our Rellenos let you control the flow — squeeze a little for a taste, or push the entire filling out in one satisfying burst. The chili powder coating on the wrapper adds an extra kick with every bite, balancing the sweetness of the tamarind and the chewiness of the licorice.


How to Enjoy Skwinkles Rellenos

How to Enjoy Skwinkles Rellenos

Squeeze & Slurp

Tear open the wrapper, hold the licorice tube upright, and squeeze from the bottom. The tamarind filling flows directly into your mouth for an instant flavor hit. This method is perfect for road trips, movie nights, or any moment you need a bold candy fix.

Bite & Chew

Prefer a slower experience? Bite off small sections of the licorice tube and let the tamarind filling coat your mouth as you chew. The combination of chewy licorice and tangy pulp creates a layered flavor that lasts longer than hard candies.


Storage & Shelf Life

Storage & Shelf Life

Store your Skwinkles Rellenos Tamarindo in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Heat can soften the licorice wrapper and cause the tamarind filling to become runny, so avoid leaving them in hot cars or near windows.

Each candy is individually wrapped to lock in freshness. Unopened, our Rellenos stay fresh for up to 12 months. Once opened, enjoy within a few days for the best texture and flavor. The chili-lime coating may settle over time — give the wrapper a gentle shake before opening to redistribute the seasoning.

The perfect balance of flavors
I grew up eating these and they still taste exactly how I remember. The tamarind is tangy without being too sour, and the chili-lime coating adds just enough spice. I keep a stash in my desk drawer for afternoon cravings.

Addictive and shareable
Bought a bag for a party and they disappeared in minutes. Everyone loved the squeeze format — it’s way more fun than regular candy. The tamarind flavor is bold and authentic, not like those watered-down versions at gas stations.

Great for road trips
These are my go-to snack for long drives. They don’t melt, they’re individually wrapped, and they last a while if you pace yourself. The tamarind flavor keeps me awake better than any boring snack.

Nostalgic and delicious
Brings back so many childhood memories. The flavor is spot-on, though I wish the wrapper was a little easier to tear open. Once you get it open, though, it’s pure nostalgia in candy form.

Introduced my friends to real Mexican candy
None of my coworkers had tried tamarind candy before, so I brought in a bag of Skwinkles. They were skeptical at first, but now they ask me to pick up more every time I go to the store. The sweet-sour-spicy combo is unbeatable.
