I bought Florasense Candied Pear Scented Candle as a gift for a friend. The candle comes in a very nice looking light-green clay jar with a lid (I am sure my friend will keep it after the candle is gone and use it to store all kinds of little bits and pieces). The jar is tied with a ribbon that says Sweet things in life and Heartfelt wishes, the latter very appropriate for a gift item. A pictur...

Frango chocolates are distributed only by Macy's, so you know from the get-go that they aren't going to be a bargain.  The regular chocolate mints are available all year long, but the Candy Cane mints are available only during the winter holiday season: they make their first appearance on Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) and disappear by shortly after New Year's Day.&n...

Most all of us are familiar with Nabisco's 100 Calorie Packs treats, such as as Teddy Grahams, Lorna Doone Shortbread Cookies, Wheat Thins, Planter's Peanut Butter Cookies, Ritz Snack Mix, Cheese Nips, and so many more. It's sensible, low calorie snack eating, that you don't have to feel guilty about. Each pack is pre-measured to exactly 100 calories, so you won't be te...

What's better that Lemonheads? Chewy Lemonheads and Friends! Yes lemonhead and his pals are definitely a great combination of flavors all in one box, and I can't believe I had not tried them before now. I've always love the taste of lemon, and have loved Lemonhead candies by Ferrara Pan since I was a kid. Well when I saw a box of these in Walgreens for a buck, I couldn't pass i...

I’m not much of a fan of ginger candy. But when my mother gave me this Sunny Ville Golden Ginger herb candy, I knew my perception about ginger candy started to change dramatically. Now I adore ginger candy. The Sunny Ville Golden Ginger herb candy comes in a tin package, with a plastic lid and the picture of ginger at the front. It contains 150g or 5.3oz, with the extra 20% more. I think ...

I have always enjoyed licorice and the brand that I usually prefer is Twizzlers. I have found that not only are they inexpensive but their licorice is quite delicious. I generally buy Twizzlers Twists and one day I decided to try their Pull-N-Peel and I have been hooked ever since.The Pull-N-Peel is different from the Twists because it is alot softer which makes it chewier. Usually when you loo...

I love licorice and I always have for a very long time. My main preference of licorice is Twizzler's Pull ‘N Peel. I was at my Walmart a few months back and came across these Twizzlers Rainbow Twists which looked interesting. They were extremely colorful and came in a variety of colors. They were so eye catching that I decided to buy it. A 12.4 oz bag was close to $2.00.I brought them...

Like every other candy maker, Hershey's makes a special treat or two for each season. One of their best for Christmas is the Candy Cane Kiss, first seen in 2006.Unlike the original Hershey's Kisses, Candy Cane Kisses start with white chocolate, and swirl in bits of peppermint candy and some red coloring.  They are brightly wrapped in silvery foil with a red candy cane or ribbo...

Isle of Eden has always had an abundance of wonderful scents, and when the Candy Colada scent came out, I broke down and ordered it in a scrub.  I'd never bought an Isle of Eden scrub, so I wasn't sure how it would be.  First off, the turn around time is horrible.  It's over a month!  But, if you don't mind the wait, it's well worth it.  The scrub I ...

When planning for our family trip to Jamaica this past May I was looking for a lightwieght stroller that I'd be able to take on the plane but sturdy enough to handle the trip. I looked a Maclaren Volvo and Triumph (too expensive for my taste!) and Ingesia (the Urbe model was a definite contender because it also has a full recline but Inglesia isn't sold in Canada and going to Buffa...

Lip Smacker is the most convenient lip balm/lip gloss for me because it can keep my lips moisturized while still looking dressy enough to make me feel presentable. I don't like lipstick, not only because it's impossible to apply without a mirror but also because you have to constantly reapply it or the top glossy product that comes with it. This lip gloss makes me feel pulled together w...

I thought my hubby was joking when he offered me green tea - candy style! Not only that it weirded me out, it also taste weird. It's quite small and green but smells rather minty.The candy was a gift from his friend who came from China. So your guess is good as mine, the candy is from China too. Not exactly the mainland China but in Taiwan. The green tea candies are made of starch, green te...

I'm sure if you've been down any candy aisle in any grocery store, you've probably seen the large version of Mounds candy bars. Well, if you love those, you are really going to love the bite size versions. Not only are they great to hand out this coming Halloween, but they are great for snacking on when you are in the mood for a little something sweet. I personally am not a fan of j...

Christmas is my favorite time of year. Not just for the presents, or the gingerbread, or fudge, or even the decorations but because I know I can get all the candy canes I want to eat. I love candy canes. They taste so yummy and kind of settle my tummy when I am hungry and I don't have anything else to eat. I can remember my mom and dad would buy boxes of them and we would be able to eat one...

I bought this 2.12 oz, two pack of hand decorated jelly and marshmallow candy suckers for my grandson for a stocking stuffer.  The package name on the hang tag was Holiday Stackers. They were about six inches long with a stick to help keep the sticky marshmallow off the little ones hands. They were only a $1.00 at the Dollar Tree store.I thought they were really cute.  One of the suck...

 This beautiful silver singing candy dish was a delightful Valentine present. It plays the song, kiss On My lips! It is full of Hershy's kisses. It plays whenever you tilt it back. It came in a bright red box. It is great for home or office. I like the fact that it is refillable and made to last! I do recommend this fun, delicious gift for anyone. It is nice sized and very eye catching...

I bought this at Victoria Secret's Semi-Annual Sale. It's a beautiful pink solution that reminds me of water and oil. The pink liquid stays atop the clear fluid. It comes in a cylindrical container with a small nozzle on top for spraying.The bottle is quite sturdy. I brought it with me to school in a bag with a glass bottle and heavy items inside and the bottle didn't even get scrat...

I am a diabetic, but I have a sweet tooth, and am always looking for something "legal" to satisfy it.  I decided to try Creme Savers (yes, that's the way it's spelled) Sugar-Free hard candy. They were delicious.  Such a terrific strawberry flavor and so creamy! They describe it as the taste of "fresh strawberries swirled in rich cream."  They are actua...

I purchased Cotton Candy Fantasy as an impulse buy one day at K-Mart. I have worn it and loved it and bought more ever since. Body Fantasies makes many different fragrances, but Cotton Candy is one very true to its name. It's very sweet and powerful when you first put it on, so you have to watch you don't over-indulge yourself with it. It does not last quite as long as a regular perfume...
