O! Canada!

Posted on May 8, 2004 by mariko

Opening this package and seeing all this glorious candy made me so, so happy:

Isn’t it beautiful? It’s all candy from Canada! Many thanks to Terri for sending these goodies. So far I’ve had the Aero bar (super fluffy!) and some Smarties. I can’t wait to try the rest, but I’m trying to pace myself.

    I love your website! You always makes me hungry for snacks & pastries. I always stop by at a pastry shop on my way to my BF’s with every intent on sharing — but I’m always wiping my mouth before I ring the doorbell, in case he notices any eclair stains 🙂

    Ahhhh!!! They sell Aero bars in Canada!?!? I had those while I was in London a couple of summers ago. They have a mint kind too – they are MARVELOUS. I see they also have the Cadbury Dairy Milk stuff up there… they sell it here too, but not on regular candy racks – you usually have to go hunting for it. I personally enjoyed the Cadbury Fruit and Nut bars. I also noticed in England that they had an orange-flavored Kit Kat. Wonder if we’ll ever get it? We’ve been getting some other variations lately, like the (truly bizarre) Big Kat and the white chocolate version.
    Ever had a Wispa bar? Those are kinda weird (also from England).

    Julie, we get Aero regular, chunky, w/caramel, “dark”, orange and mint. Kit Kats also come in regular, dark, chunky, orange … uh, I think that’s it. Julia, I think our (CDN) Kit Kats taste a bit different than the US ones – the chocolate is different, so that’s why I sent them. I am more of a pure chocolate fan – although I will eat any chocolate bar in a pinch! 🙂

    I had no idea Canadian candy was so exotic to our neighbours south of the border! Mint Aero bars are really good — the bubbly inside bit is bright green.

    Ahh….saw the aero bars too….my parents had to send/bring them by the case when I was pregnant. I even went as far as calling nestle canada and the rep sent me a case to keep me happy until I could get more…:) Thanks for the memories!

    Ooooo…I see some Kinder Bueno in that box! I love that stuff. I got totally hooked on it when I was living in Prague. And recently a friend of mine tracked some down for me when she was in Mexico.

    that’s so funny-I live in Canada and I’ve been craving payday bars but they don’t sell them here 🙁 In fact…I even had a dream about buying a bunch of them…yum
