There\u2019s a red, white, and blue theme going on. Not sure what the green is about, though. Maybe it represents the grass on the pitch? (Thanks for teaching me what a soccer field is called, Ted Lasso. Season 4 starts streaming on Apple TV+ on August 5, 2026. This is not an ad.) Or maybe the green represents the green on the Mexican flag, since the country is co-hosting the event with the US and Canada. Or maybe it\u2019s leftover candy from a Shrek promotion years ago.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/brftbolfirewksic2.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Popping candy does not pop.\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-78024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/brftbolfirewksic2.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/brftbolfirewksic2.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/brftbolfirewksic2.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/brftbolfirewksic2.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The popping candy is supposed to represent the fireworks, and much like the popping candy I\u2019ve had in ice cream from other brands and every custom player I\u2019ve created in EA\u2019s FIFA, they were all duds. There was no popping of any kind, and I even did the thing where you open your mouth to let in more oxygen to help trigger the candy, which only made me look like I was a hungry hatchling in the middle of a somewhat crowded Baskin-Robbins location. Instead, all they offered was a crunch similar to Nerds, which isn\u2019t a completely horrible thing since this scoop needed some texture. But on top of the lack of popping, the blue raspberry and green apple flavors the candies were supposed to provide were also absent.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/brftbolfirewksic3.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"If you love cherry, you&#039;ll love this.\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-78025\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/brftbolfirewksic3.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/brftbolfirewksic3.jpeg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/brftbolfirewksic3.jpeg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/brftbolfirewksic3.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The blue raspberry swirls added a slight grittiness and a strong tart berry flavor when I hit a big chunk of one. But most spoonfuls were dominated by the cherry sherbet, even when I managed to get some of the blue swirl.<\/p>\n<p>I was most curious about the sweet cream soda ice cream, but I couldn\u2019t identify it as sweet cream soda-flavored, even when tasting it on its own. What the ice cream base did offer was a way to temper the cherry sherbet somewhat, which made up the majority of my scoop. Without the ice cream, the whole scoop probably would\u2019ve been way too heavily cherry.<\/p>\n<p>For the most part, F\u00fatbol Fireworks is a cherry-flavored scoop with some crunchy candy mixed in. It\u2019s a bit ho-hum, but if cherry is your thing, you\u2019ll probably enjoy it.
