Who hasn't dreamed of being Charlie Bucket in Wonka's chocolate factory at one time or another? Or, maybe you enjoy imagining what it would be like to find yourself in a real that delightful sugary rush. Chocolate, nuts and caramels, in various combinations, are of course favorites amongst children and adults alike. So go ahead, indulge that sweet tooth! Just remember, everything in moderation.
Different Varieties
Chocolate, nuts, and caramels come in an endless number of combinations and varieties. Chocolate covered almonds and peanuts are a popular choice, especially when combined with a colorful candy coating, like M&M's. Or what about a mixed nut variety - always a classic, available in both milk and dark, depending on your preference. Candy bars with nuts, from makers like Cadbury and Hershey's, are also top picks amongst sweet tooths, as well as varieties of almond bark. As for caramels, you can go with gooey, like Rolo or Caramilk, chewy, like Riesen, or hard and crunchy (closer to a toffee) like Werther's or Skor. Or what about combining all three components? Try chocolate covered caramels dusted with nuts, or Turtles, for a delightful mix of tastes and textures.
Make Your Own
Chocolates make a great gift because they can be enjoyed together. Try a heartcovered cookie sheet. Put the sheet in the refrigerator for a few hours to harden and you're done!
