Chocolate Filled Chupa Chups Hard Candy

// February 3rd, 2010 // No Comments » // Candy Video Review, chocolate candy, hard candy



I know, I know… It’s not Tuesday!! But I’m back again. I hope you enjoy this “Candy Tuesday” review!

So close to the end of eating the Chupa Chup hard candy, the chocolate didn’t ooze out like picture on the box. But it was good and you wouldn’t even notice that it was sugar free. I purchased these in Spain, so I’m not sure of the availability in the USA. Chupa Chup is originally from Spain so perhaps this may not be available yet. However, I did mention a website in a previous post where you can purchase candy directly from Spain at: www.confitelia.com

Best Valentine Day Chocolate

// January 21st, 2010 // No Comments » // chocolate candy, valentines candy

There comes that special day of the year which requires you to provide your soul mate with a box of delight, a box of the Best Valentine Day Chocolate. There is a slight issue though. You step into a shop and it hits you. There are too many types of chocolate and the difficulty of choosing the best arises immediately. I am here to provide you with some information and tips in order to solve the problem swiftly.

First of all, the box has to say “Valentine’s Day” on it or it just won’t do. If you narrow the search down to the specifically designed boxes you can start looking for the best of them.

Remember a few things though. Your partner will not eat them all in one go (since the box contains a lot of chocolate) so it would be better to purchase pralines (individually rapped if possible, so they stay fresh for a longer time). You could also go for a cake that you and your closest friends could enjoy. Either way, chocolate needs to be the main ingredient.

You have to think about what your soul mate likes exactly and focus on that sort of products. Maybe your soul mate enjoys chocolate with a bit of rum inside, or maybe he or she loves some strawberries dipped in the finest and tastiest chocolate. In any case, keep in mind that different people enjoy different things, so the best Valentine Day Chocolate for someone might not be as good for some body else.

Another important aspect would be the price. There are cheap boxes of chocolate, but if you really want to give him or her an impressive gift you could spend more than you expected on sweets alone. Settle on a budget and go find the best Valentine Day Chocolate for the one you love.

Some other Valentines Day offers going around that I’ve collected

  1. Godiva Chocolate – Free 70 Piece Gold Ballotin (Survey)
  2. CreateMyChocolate$10 Off if you become a fan of their Facebook Page
  3. Jelly Belly – Spend $35 or more & get a free box of conversation beans (Coupon: CRUSH) : Until January 25th
  4. zChocolat – Very nice customizations of chocolates
  5. Hallmark – Send Flowers Via Hallmart With $100 Gold Crown Gift Card (Survey)

Muddy Bears Review

// January 20th, 2010 // No Comments » // Candy Video Review, chocolate candy, Gummy

Back again, smarter and wiser!!! Check out this muddy edition of Candy Tuesdays!!!

I was really looking forward to eating these Muddy Bears but I was really disappointed with the taste. Thats not to say that you won’t enjoy it! However, I’m very very picky when it comes to gummi bears and I prefer those which are very juicy and have lots of flavor. These Muddy Gummi Bears didn’t have very good flavor and the milk chocolate taste was not very good. I bought these from the Dollar Tree so you should check out your local Dollar Tree just to give it a try and report back!

However, after checking the website I did notice one of my favorite sweets: Cotton Candy. The have announced a new type of cotton candy to their collection and its Mike & Ike’s. I love Mike & Ike’s and Hot Tamales!!! I wish I could have reviewed those! In due time I’m sure.Check out CandyAsap.com for other great tasting candy! They do have tons of good candy and you can order directly from the website which is nice

Creating Your Own Chocolate Even More Popular

// January 14th, 2010 // No Comments » // Candy News, chocolate candy, valentines candy

If you’ve been following my blog, then you know the popularity of creating your own chocolate candy bars at two websites that I have reviewed: Chocri and Chocomize. Chocri originated in Germany and due to its popularity decided to try the U.S. markets and with their recent launch it has been successful and popular. Chocomize company which is based in the U.S. has had great success as well. This is not just a fade but very much “in style” and a growing trend. However, I would LOVE to see non-chocolate “create my own gummy candy” for example!

So yesterday I saw in the news that the Hershey Chocolate World visiting center will offer visitors a chance to make their own chocolate as well. How cool is that? If you check out the Chocri video demo that I did you saw my excitement creating the candy bar but imagine in the chocolate factory creating your own chocolate! Well its possible if you visit the Hershey Chocolate world during this Summer 2010.

Valentines Day is right around the corner, so I would highly recommend using any of those create my own chocolate websites, because it adds a special touch as a Valentines Candy gift!
