How about a Cigar?

I thought the title may intrigue you or make you think I was crazy. Hopefully you chose the first option. For as long as I can remember, I have always loved black licorice. Every now and again I buy these black licorice cigars with a little crystallized sugar top.

These candy cigars are soft, chewy and simply amazing. Best of all – Mama zesty bought me a whole case of these babies. As I walked up to the kitchen counter and noticed these out of the corner of my eye…. a large zesty smile appeared. I had to crack into these right after dinner and of course share them with you.

Now don’t get me wrong – I am not affiliated with Hershey but I would love to receive some extra samples… hint hint.

Question of the Day

Have you ever had a licorice Cigar? If so tell me what you think?

What's your favorite Candy?

Lately I have been craving candy like no other. We were at a wedding last weekend and one of the party favors was an all you can eat “Candy Bar”. It was a great idea, as there was a lot of selection and nice little take out boxes to take your goodies. It was definitely the highlight of the night.

When it comes to candy, we always seem to have a few Swedish berries on hand as we are addicted to them. My favorite candy would have to be “black babies”. I tend not to eat them very often but when I get the craving… oh boy look out.

In addition to the traditional sugar candies I do love a hint of chocolate every now and again. I do not drink any coffee, tea or pop/soda, so I look for a shot of chocolate every now and again as a treat.

So with that being said,

I want to know your “FAVORITE CANDY”.

Tell me in the comments because I am sure there are tonnes of candy I have not even heard of. I look forward to hearing everyone’s response.

Have a great Friday and I will see you all on Monday.
