malt balls

Wasn't sure what topic to put this under...I want to get my daughter some malt balls for Christmas. She loves them. She loves them from Harry & David. However their only option is to purchase in some fancy jar that she would never use and the S&H charges are crazy.

I would like to get some special ones. I am not a fan of malt balls so I can't rally taste them to be a judge.

Are their any brands that you would suggest?? . I have seen that Vermont Country Store has some.

thanks a lot...

Are you referring to malted milk balls.

Whoppers are malt balls but they are covered in chocolate.

Nuts dot com has what they call "malt ball centers." They are just the malt with no chocolate covering

I love malted milk balls too. I've purchased them from Nuts.com. They were very tasty.

The price is $9.98 for a 1 lb bag. The only drawback is their shipping charges are very high. When I've purchased them I've also bought several other items so I had enough for free shipping.

Their nuts are excellent. They are always very fresh. I usually only purchase from them once a year as a special treat. I don't know if they still offer this but at one time they offered free shipping on your first order only.

I also see that Amazon has malted milk balls but some of the reviews are not favorable.

I like Brachs brand malted milk balls, but I cannot find them locally anymore. I find that the "gourmet" brands have too thick a chocolate coating for my taste.
