keep the candy coming!

How much do I love the Candyalong? Just take a look at the sweet treats MJ sent me!

She was very brave and included chocolate in the package (we are both in warm parts of California). YUMMY. I tore into that Ritter bar pretty quickly, but first I had a “pudding marshmallow.” It was so soft I had to rub it against my face!
All this candy love has inspired me to start a candy swap group. I probably won’t really get it going for a couple of months, but when I do, I’ll let you know. I have all sorts of ideas for it (random candy swaps, gourmet chocolate swaps, seasonal swaps, regional candy swaps).

    You are so funny! I can see you brainstorming the infinite candy swap permutations. How about a blue candy swap, hard candy swap, or a sour candy swap?

    Marshmallows are one of my basic food groups, I eat some every day…..so I am curious…what is a pudding marshmallow and where do you get them??? Sounds marvelous!!! The variety of your posts are so very entertaining!

    If you set up a candy swap group I would so definitely want to be in it!

    Me too! I want to be part of a candy swap group. But be forewarned, I have access to a lot of Middle Eastern candy, some of which is an acquired taste!

    How about homemade candy? (for the very very brave)
    I would love to participate in this whenever it gets going.

    I would LOVE to be a part of this! Maybe you could do a state or country of origin inspired swap! I would LOVE to try Middle Eastern candy! Hey, I have access to chocolate covered ants (I’m from New Orleans). Now THAT would be a swap to remember!

  12. Pamela says:

    I too am a candy-a-holic and would enjoy participating in a candy swap. Count me in!

  13. MJ says:

    Ooh, candy swap! I am SO part of that! There are 3-5 sorts of stuffed marshmallow flavors, surprisingly, so I’ll grab a bunch for candy swaps. I like the themes idea; should there also be a list of preferences for each person?

    Any permutation of a candy swap is great. International is always fun… I have access to a huge Japanese supermarket in NJ that has great candy. And maybe December people can make their own candy… I usually make nut brittles, caramels and english toffee. Yummy. Candy for breakfast anyone?

    I was just thinking that I make chocolate truffles and barley candy, so October would be a MUCH better month to start. No one likes homemade candy puddles! lol.

    I had thought about doing a candy swap too. I LOVE candy and would love to share my favorites with others. I hope you do get it up and running. Let me know if you would like any help with it.
