Hands down Chocolate coconut haystacks followed my marzipan (spelling? lol) and I must add Turkish Delight! TD is rare in america but its fantastic. It is like a fruit jelly like a gummy but very smooth and melts when you bite into it and covered in powdered sugar

Turkish Delight was my mom's favorite, she could eat an entire box so she would tell my dad and I to take it away and hide it after she'd had a few pieces. Smile It is yummy stuff and always reminds me of her when I see it.

I received Godiva, See's and Waggoners for Christmas. I'll take Waggoners over the others.

This is going to sound really obscure by I LOVE Botan rice candy. Whenever I go to our local Asian markets I pick some up.


I love these, too, and have been eating them since I was a child. These days I always make a trip to Cost+ before Christmas to purchase sufficient as stocking stuffers. (They used to come with a "real" toy inside, like a plastic car.)

Yes! There used to be a real toy inside when I was a kid. Alas...

Ghiradelli Squares -- Dark Chocolate with Raspberry and Brookside dark chocolate pomegranate are my current loves. I do love Godiva, but I haven't had it for years due to the price. Of course, I like lots of other candies, both chocolate and not. Lucky I can limit myself to one or two pieces a day.

There is a company here in WA state that makes a candy that sounds like this. It's called Aplets and Cotlets. The company is called Liberty Orchards and the original founders were Armenian.

I love nonpareils...the ones that are the size of a quarter, not the Sno-Caps, but I'll eat those at the movies. I also lhave a weakness for ike sugar free Strawherry Twizzlers.
