The Cool Candy Thread - Page 6

MerryPrankster · 01-23-2005, 09:11 PM

I've been craving candy all day because of this thread. I have a ton of chocolate left over from the holidays, but that isn't what I want.

I'm a chewy, gummi, "tooth breaking" candy person. I don't like to keep much of it on hand either. I can easily polish off a big box in one sitting.

My faves:

*Dots, regular and cinnamon
*Black Crows
*Hot Tamales
*Mike & Ikes
*Jelly Beans
*Milk Duds
*Gummi Smurfs (blue), I can't find these anymore...whaaa!

*Gummi Frogs, the ones with the marshmallow underneath.
*Licorice -- I prefer black over red, but either will do. My all time favorite is grape. I haven't seen the purple licorice in a long time either, whaaa again!
*Sour Punch Straws
*Ferrera Pan candy -- Lemonheads, Red Hots, Jawbreakers, Atomic Fire Balls
*Salt Water Taffy -- This stuff is awesome...I'm so tempted to order a box.

I do love See's Candy too. Their toffee is fabulous!

Hey, I own one, but I haven't used it yet. No jury on Earth would convict me for that!

Perhaps it doesn't count if it were a gift. Then again, you didn't return it...

I don't get them all the time. There's only so much I can handle with those. They can make you feel a little ill. But they have the little bite size ones now, so that can help the craving!

Blasphemy!

But I like the Cadbury eggs, too. So I guess it's alright.

Cadbury eggs are gross. Now, Robin's Eggs.....those are good.

Henrys Market sells licorice of various flavors: grape, root beer, cherry, strawberry, apple etc...

Target now sells the Aussie licorice that you could previously obtain from Trader Jos.

But... admittedly, its not the same as new ones from the store.

I admit - I've made and eaten ALL of mine... hehehehehehe. BEAUT present, Ponine !!

It was favoured by all ! Better than the store bought ones because they were made by US ourselves ! And they were Soooooo cute - we got a special snowman mold that we couldn't bring ourse;ves to colour no matter what !

I love the Lindt dark chocolate bar with little bits of orange in it. DL Candy Palace English toffee also totally rocks.
