Candy Blog Talk

I have a bunch of candies scribbled down on little lists here and there.

But here you go, here’s one place to suggest stuff for me to cover.

Or it could be something that you’re curious about and want me to try and let you know how it is first.

- Kasugai Super Juicy Gummies
  (I know you mentioned them, but I think that they deserve a more complete review.)
- Any Choxie products

I’d be really interested in your take on Teaberry gum!

Ditto on the Teabury gum, I have heard about it in literature since I was a kid but have never even seen the stuff, never mind tried it. also, I would be interested in a review of various chocolate covered pretzels since, I cannot seem to find a good brand. :/ Either the pretzel is stale, or just plain gross or the chocolate covering is fake chocolate, too sweet, tastes like nothing or is bloomed from being old and poorly stored and chalky. I made some fro ma recipe once that were pretty good, though they got chewy fast from the humidity.

My vote goes for the Dolfin bars.

I’d love to see the Wunderbar reviewed. I did a search and it was mentioned, no review found. Sourced from Canada.

Here’s a youtube item, a young man in the US gets a little shipment of them from Quebec. Watch up to 2:30 to see his reaction. G rating, the word sexy from the song ‘Hot Chocolate’, & the word spank near the end.

There is a ‘African’ candy/chocolate store in California. I just discovered the website and I need to place an order! I think they ship to Canada. Many candy and chocolate products that I have not seen before - majority from South Africa & the UK.

I’d love to see the Sally Williams nougat. I just had some different African nougat that was utterly disgusting, and I’ve been really wanting to try Sally Williams, but I’m too cheap to pony up the money. I wouldn’t want to see LA Burdick, because they make the world’s best chocolate. I’ve had almost every single chocolate they make, save for the cigars and pave glace. If they got reviewed I probably wouldn’t read it, unless their pastries were reviewed, which I’ve never had, so now I’ll need to buy some. ^_^
