Eat with your Eyes: Rock Candy

If I’m going to eat straight sugar, I prefer the brown type, which has a wonderful molasses, vanilla and bourbon notes to it. But there’s no denying that the encrusted gems on a simple wooden stick are compelling.

Eat with your Eyes is a recurring feature where I just show you stuff I’ve photographed but probably won’t get around to reviewing, but feel free to share your reviews here of the candy if you’ve had it.

My DD always wants one of these when we travel through the Denver airport on the way to grandparents in California. The Rocky Mountain Chocolate company is all too tempting when in transit; they have all the rainbow colors of these rock candy sticks in the window. Illia usually chooses watermelon.

There are so many great vegan and socially responsible chocolates out there now, there’s little reason to compromise when picking up a treat. Sjaak’s Organic Chocolates does a great job of bringing together contemporary and classic flavors that fit into their philosophy. (more)

Eat with your Eyes: Easter Dots
Easter Dots are just about the same flavor set as the regular year-round Dots but far more vivid. Would that be reason enough to pick them up? (more)
