Live from the Chocolate Kingdom!

When your friend tell you that she's sending a pile of chocolate from the US, you pretty well believe it's going to be a big pile of candy from the US.

Big enough to justify a photo!





THANK YOU SO MUCH, slwatson! This is too awesome!

In there is, uh, a lot of candy. There's a massive Symphony with almonds and toffee, a massive Mr. Goodbar (massive is the only word for these, since they're bigger than a king sized bar), 65% cacao Cacao Reserve bar, 2 Take 5 bars (once again, OMGTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU! After some research, I now believe Max 5 is no longer made here), a king sized Hershey's Special Dark, a king sized and a normal sized Hershey's with Almonds (my favorite American candy bar and YES, the Canadian versions don't taste the same), 2 regular Hershey's, a Hershey's Cookies n' Creme, 2 Whatchamacallits, a York Pepperment Pattie and one each of the American versions of KitKat, Rolo and Reeses.

Whatchamacallits are SO DARN GOOD.

My apartment smells like childhood and US road trips. It's amazing.

Oh! Speaking of rare Canadian candy, any interest in Pal-o-Mine? It's a very old fashioned bar from out east; peanut fudge dipped in dark chocolate. A bit hard to track down, but I might be able to call in a favor from the company owner at work.

Why not?

It might take a bit of store searching. ;) The bar itself is a bit interesting. It's made by Ganong, which is a company that otherwise makes mostly fancy boxed chocolates. It's also one of the first, if not the original, candy bars. So, yes, very old school.
