Lindt Gold Bunnies

// March 31st, 2009 // No Comments » // Candy News, Candy Video Review, Easter Candy, Gummy, chocolate candy

Easter is right around the corner and today is Candy Tuesday! I hope you like the review!

The Lindt Easter Bunny has been around for many years! I did not realize the history behind the story until now. The first Lindt Gold Bunny was created in March 1952 and it has held a great tradition ever since. The bunny is made from soft milk Lindt chocolate and is wrapped with a gold color foil. The tradition is that the bunny is wrapped in gold with a red tie around the neck!

The month of March 2007 during the bunny’s 55 Aniversary was celebrated as Lindt Chocolate Day. Large gold bunny sculptures were made and decorations. All of which I had no idea! These bunnies are not so easy to find. Even after checking Ebay, I’ve only seen them in a couple of stores and especially from Europe!

Read more about the making of the gold bunny at the Lindt Gold Bunny Website. Also, if you’re interested you can send a Easter Card free from the site as well. They are very well designed, plus you can add your own photo. That normally at places like Hallmark is no less than $1.99 to send. So take advantage!!

Cadbury Creme Egg Robot

The Cadbury Creme Eggs are back again for the Easter Candy Season (after being recalled in 2008). The Goo Tube has released a pretty funny Youtube video of how the cadbury creme eggs will be eaten in the future. Its funny check it out.

If you visit the Cadbury Egg website you’ll find a contest where you can win a 3 pack of Cadbury Eggs. It’s not a lot and I’m not sure of the restrictions as it is not listed on the website.

Easter Chocolate Candy

Easter pralines

ZChocolat has a nice 48 piece chocolate Easter Chocolate gift box just in time for Easter. First of all, I love the design of the box and the use of the colors, yellow and purple. However, the goods inside are the most exciting. I’m not a big big chocolate fan, however this box contains so many different types. If I had to eat chocolate, I would choose white chocolate because it has a softer taste.

The Zchocolat Easter Box contains 48 pieces of chocolate with different Easter theme shapes such as:

  • Easter Eggs
  • Bunnys
  • Birds
  • Seashells
  • Bells

The types of chocolates include:

  • Milk Chocolate
  • Dark Chocolate
  • Orange Flavored Chocolate
  • Almond Pralines
  • Hazelnut fill Chocolate

The price is not bad considering the quality of the chocolate at: $58.80. Plus they ship worldwide!!  

Hit Candy Capsules

// March 24th, 2009 // 2 Comments » // Candy Video Review, International Candy

Candy Tuesday’s back yet again! Excuse my voice in this video today. I’m still a little hoarse from the flu. Enjoy the video!

As you can see the bulk box of strawberry candy drop capsules in the photo. The drops were soft and not like Tic Tacs which I compared them to in the video. The flavor was exactly fruity with a great strawberry twist.

Case of 18

The company that manufactures the Hit Candy is Nutrexpa out of Barcelona, Spain. I purchased them in a candy warehouse for about $5.00 for the bulk pack of 18. Anybody interested in getting the rest of the capsules?
