Kandy Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 I buy the soft peppermint with the picture of the christmas tree in the middle of it. That's my favorite at christmas time. I also like the mixed tin of hard candy but one tin will last a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amystuff Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 We usually have a bowl of Reeses peanutbutter cups and Hershey's kisses. Somehow they just taste better in red & green! I recently found Ghirardelli peppermint bark at our local dollar store. It is delicious with coffee. Has anyone tried the eggnog? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest all2tired Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Each of my kids and my hubby all get a few big bags of their favorite candy. Hubby informed me this year not to get him peanut M&M's. He's moved on to Peanut Chews. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disneytati Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 When I go to the US on Christmas time, I try to buy all kinds of holiday stuff: M&M's, cookies, chocolate, cereal... We don't have anything of the kind here, so it's a cheap and nice gift for my friends and family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redoregano Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Chocolate covered cherries!! I buy those and lots of them I bought my first box yesterday.

gigit65 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 I have to buy dark chocolate kisses for DH and fill his stocking with them. The kids have to have those chocolate candy coins. I don't know why I just have to put them in thier stockings and they expect them every year now. Candy canes are a must. On the tree and in a bowl.

disneytati Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 I would really love to be able to hang chocolate decorations and candy canes on my tree... But it's so hot here, they melt. So now we just give them as little gifts to friends, and of course, I bring lots of them for myself, to get me in the spirit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biomajor Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Chocolate covered cherries!! I buy those and lots of them I bought my first box yesterday. I think they are available year round, but they are cheap and plentiful this time of year! I like the ones without the white stuff, and hate the ones with the white stuff, but my MIL sends me a box of the white stuff ones every year. None of us eat them. They are too sweet. I still have a box from last year that she sent us. YUCK!! My dog likes them though. We found out that when she got into a box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berry Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 Whitman's asst chocolate 1 lb. box- my father, a depression era kid thought Christmas was about getting chocolate, and fresh fruit. You were an adult when you graduated to the 1 lb box. 30 years later and I still have the first paper lb box. LOVE CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltorama Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 O.k. this is the stuff I like. Old fashioned sponge candy that's dipped in chocolate. It's also known as angel food candy or fairy food. Peppermint flavored christmas taffy, is is sweet and refreshing. Fudgie trees made by the Chocolate House, hard to find. Their brand of tinned fudge is good too. Turtles, dh loves these. I like to make fudge, divinity, caramel coated, chocolate covered pretels, peanut butter bon-bons, etc... Love the Christmas candies more than the cookies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
