It’s almost Christmas! Still doesn’t feel like it, though. But maybe that’s because we’re not eating enough homemade seasonal candy, y’know? Let’s fix that. One step at a time, as they say.

I gained two pounds just looking at those pictures. Thanks a lot.
Gimme! *grabbyhands*
These all look so delicious annnnnd of course all the fancy ingredients are American! Damnit, why are our shops so useless!
Technical note but the link for Microwave Hot Chocolate Fudge goes to CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY STICKS again!
All of this candy looks amazing, thanks for helping me figure out what to make for my church bake sale and my work holiday party!
Traditional favourite in our family is Rum Balls. My brother has a particularly potent recipe that I’m sure is more rum than chocolate.
Want it all!!! =P
Thank you, great candy recipes, I love all kinds of sweets. But now I’m trying to switch to more useful ones, such as these for example, serve as a great snack for me.
