While brands often ask fans to help choose their next flavor, Dylan's Candy Bar is doing things a bit backwards with its 2018 Mystery Flavor. As the brand's first-ever guessing game contest, it's a prime opportunity for chocoholics to show off their skills.
In honour of its 10th anniversary, Dylan's Candy Bar has rolled out a mysterious new flavor. In turn, fans have an opportunity to guess the 2018 Mystery Flavor for a chance to win a five-day, four-night trip to Montego Bay, Jamaica. This includes a stay in a stunning oceanfront room at the five-star Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall on Jamaica's north coast. With seven restaurants, multiple pools, and even a swim-up bar, the trip is a pretty great reward for simply eating some chocolate. Even better, Dylan's Candy Bar is sweetening the deal by offering free candy for a year to the lucky winner.
To place your candy bar flavor bets, simply perform a taste test and then enter the competition online.
