Hello, I'm a confectionery enthusiast with a keen interest in the nuances of candy flavors. When it comes to Smarties, there's a bit of variety to explore.
In the United States, Smarties are known as "Rockets" and are typically a single flavor, which is a sweet, slightly tangy candy shell with a chalky texture. However, in other countries, particularly the United Kingdom, Smarties have a variety of flavors. The classic UK Smarties come in eight different flavors:
strawberry,
orange,
green apple,
lemon,
butter,
blue (which is a blueberry flavor),
pink (which is a grape flavor), and
red (which is a cherry flavor). Each color is associated with a specific flavor, and while they all share a similar sweetness, the flavors themselves are distinct from one another.
So, while all Smarties in the US are the same flavor, in the UK and some other countries, they come in a range of flavors.
