Couple Wins Candy Contest With Covered Lighthouse

// February 5th, 2010 // 2 Comments » // Candy Art, Candy Contest

What a great idea! A candy covered light house. I recently read that back in January a couple entered a candy contest and decided to design and make a candy covered lighthouse. It is amazing and original.

Here is a link to the original contest and the news article.

Air Head Valentine Candy

// February 3rd, 2010 // 1 Comment » // Eating Right Now, valentines candy

Ohhhh! These are so good. I wanted to do a video review but they were calling my name. I love Air Heads and especially when they are small and individually wrapped. Inside the bag are: Strawberry, Cherry and White Mystery Flavors. I didn’t like the flavor of the White Mystery but the rest were great and juicy like always.

Valentine Candys are so nice these days because on each of these small packages are Valentine messages such as: “UR2COOL”, “Sweeeet!”, “Friends Forever“..and the list goes on. Even on the back, there is a place to write: To: and From: … if you have classes and would like to give these away. Ooohhh, I remember the days..

Chocolate Filled Chupa Chups 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.
