The holidays are when many people get together with their friends and family to celebrate beloved traditions and festive rituals. You may have a few dinners and get-togethers planned with loved ones, and you may even be planning a couple of celebrations and dinner parties yourself. While the festivities of seeing the people you love,…
In honor of Halloween, I will be writing about the most famous seasonal treat of them all: candy corn. For those who have been living under a rock, candy corn is a layered, 3-colored candy in the shape of a witch’s hat/cone. Typically, the top is white, the middle is orange and the bottom is…
*Careful Peeps Oreo has been known to turn your tongue hot pink! Eat at your own risk.* Let’s be honest, no one really likes Peeps. I’m confident that no one on Earth would qualify it as their favorite candy. But if anyone could get people to like Peeps, it would be Oreo. Oreo is coming…
Easter candy with a sour twist Easter is a great holiday because its candy selection is topnotch– fact. Every Easter, you have your Cadbury Cream Eggs, your Reese’s Eggs, and of course, your fair share of jelly beans around the supermarket. All are great choices, but if you’re a sweet tooth like me, you always…
A holiday classic from Queen Anne. Here, I’ve reviewed the Queen Anne Cordial Cherries MILK CHOCOLATE flavor. I’ve never had the dark chocolate, but it is out there. I’ve even seen new cordial blueberries in stores lately. I haven’t had those either, but if you have some extra boxes of anything laying around the house after…
I love gingerbread and gingerbread cookies. When The Impulsive Buy posted photos of Gingerbread M&M’s and Gingerbread Twix, I went hunting for them both at my local Walmart. Alas, I was only able to find the Gingerbread M&M’s; no Twix. Though the Gingerbread M&M’s?were?not explicitly packaged with a “limited edition” tag, Red is wearing a…
I’m not sure if these Jelly Belly?Peas & Carrots mellocreme candies are a seasonal Easter treat or not. My little bag was bought at the dollar store, where it was shelved with other Jelly Belly treats. Still, peas and carrots nicely fit in with springtime and bunnies, so it would make a good Easter candy….
These Iddy Biddy Bunnies were a seasonal Easter treat from Russell Stover. My 1.7 oz bag advertised 60 pieces and noted that the bunnies on the wrapper were “Actual Size!” The bag of chocolate smelled sweetly chocolatey, like Hershey’s chocolate syrup. The molded bunnies were, as promised, Iddy Biddy indeed – just under an inch…
Hi readers! Sorry I was AWOL on reviews last week – I was road-tripping and out of the town the previous weekend and fell behind on life. I’m back now with some drug store buys from my pre-road trip snack shopping. First up, Black Forest’s Juicy Oozers Gummy Cracked Eggs. These were a seasonal Easter…
Usually companies (or their PR firms) contact me to get my address and ask about my review policy before sending me free samples. This Peterbrooke Chocolatier Wonder Egg arrived without warning. It was a nice surprise and made waves at lab due to its impressive size. This chocolate egg was ginormous (shown below with jelly…
