My Favorite Chocolates

I absolutely love See's Candies, it is a mini-addiction. When I'm working downtown, I tend to go there about once a week and pick up a few of my favorites, and maybe try a new piece here and there. I know a lot of people consider See's as a cheaper type of chocolate, but it's good enough for me! When I was young, my mom would treat us to one of their lollipops when we would be on a mall shopping trip. They had more flavors back then (I always wanted the now defunct peanut butter one), and I have moved on to the glorious chocolate case and will stick to that. My two favorite pieces that I have to get every time are:

Dark Nougat

This piece I just recently discovered. It has a honey flavored nougat with almonds, covered with dark chocolate. Health-wise, this would be a better selection since almonds are one of the better-for-you nuts and it's dark:)

Peanut Crunch

This is one of the first pieces I discovered. I told the lady at the counter I loved peanut butter crunchy so she gave me this and I've never looked back. It is just right, so much better than a Reese's could ever be. If you prefer creamy, they also have the Peanut Butter Cup, that is also a solid choice.

Some other pieces I like are the butterscotch square (very very sweet), apple pie truffle, dark almonds, light chocolate truffle and the Scotchmallow.

A few that I actually don't like are the pineapple truffle, walnut square, vanilla nut cream and divinity puff. I guess it's more that I don't like walnuts. But the pineapple one really is gross.

There's my See's wrap-up. Oh, and one more thing, you always get a smile, a "Come back soon" along with your receipt and the extra free sample!!
