1. 110 Essential Candies for the "Candivore" -- Found this list while researching this post, actually. I love candy- its no secret. I want to try it all! Here is a great list of everything. I think I've made a new life goal. :)
2. Necco Sweethearts are terrible this year. I hope that the change isn't permanent, but I fear it is. Instead of the faint, familiar flavors these traditional Valentine's confections are nasty. They taste like cough syrup and perfume when you accidentally spray in your mouth. I disapprove. However, we at the Candy Counter have the traditional Necco variety in bulk. I've had many a happy customer discover that someone still has the classic!
3. Coconut M&Ms are back in stores. I tried these last year, and they were great. I've also got it on good authority that sometime this summer Pretzel M&Ms will be available? Sounds pretty good -- I like chocolate covered pretzels.
4. Monster Malted Milkies have been discontinued at work. While I don't really care for these myself, we have some very loyal customers who come in every week and get their pound bags. i unfortunately, had the privilege of letting these gentlemen know their favorite was being axed. I felt so bad! Probably the saddest thing I've ever had to tell someone at work. Apparently the company that manufactures these malt balls is moving to be Gluten-Free and these sadly, are not making the cut.
5. Mars bars are back! My mom loves Mars bars, and we were sad when they were discontinued for Snickers Almond back a few years ago. A Mars bar is way better than a Snickers Almond, just so you know. Dan and I were at Wal-Mart and there was a box of Mars bars right at the checkout. I was so happy I called my mom to tell her and woke her up (I sometimes forget about the time-zone thing)
Anyway, those are all the notable updates in the world of Candy.
Love,
Candace
