(Part 2) Reddit mentions: The best hard candy, suckers & lollipops

I would love to gift this to my best friend's daughter! She's a super smart kid and I think she would really enjoy it. :) (I also get to see them in a few days!!!)

I found These around Christmas time. I think they're pretty peculiar. I still want to try one. lol

I "Pinky-swear" that, if chosen, I will pass the book on to a great new home! :D

Chili mango suckers:

Same thing but watermelon (both are delicious):

These are a Mexican candy staple, tamarind chili pulp:

These are almost like a spicy Mexican fruit roll up:

These are candy sticks, the container is full of spicy/sour powder that you dip the stick in. These are cucumber flavor (sounds weird, but try it). They have other flavors too, watermelon is good.

Lucas is probably the biggest Mexican candy brand, and most of what they make is good. From these items you can view recommendations for more ideas to find something you like. There are a few variety packs as well, maybe you can try one of those to see what you like before you order a 40 pack of them. Good luck!

I got mine yesterday. So far, I'm a fan. (It was a little perfumey at first, so I left it to air overnight and that seems to have cured it.) I'm not sure I get kiwi specifically, but there is definitely a sweet, fruit flavor with a bit of creamy finish. Like a variant on Creme Savers candy.

I might need to put in an order when my vape-money bucket refills. :)

Thanks again!

So my 'perfect night in' is pretty simple. And I'm bored so I'm throwing out a bunch of random things on the WL that would be involved. Oh, and 'me time'.

SO. First off, we would start with a relaxing bath with some good smelling soaps and soaks. This inevitably involved a cat or two standing guard because they're weirdos. Then I settle into my super comfortable pajama pants paired with a comfortable shirt. Set up the PS3 or BluRay player with a good movie to watch, then retreat to the couch and settle in with a nice pillow, blanket, and something to snuggle with (cause the cats are assholes and don't like snuggles). Of course there will be snacks too, lots of snacks. Ideally, there would also be a lack of assholes texting my phone during this time period. And though I will not put the title of 'asshole' on my mother (she'd find out somehow), sometimes I really don't want to see LOLCat pics or Some ECards that she's texting me.

If you're not telling anyone you could always have the servers bring you sparkling apple cider, generally it's also fun for the kids/non alcohol drinkers in your reception.

As for the morning sickness it's different with each woman, saltine crackers help and they have these new lolly pops and hard candies out that are supposed to also be awesome.

Congrats on both your upcoming wedding and the new baby!

• Need - Desk Light for my office/work area. It is in the same room as our bedroom - the only light is right next to my hubby's head. I sometimes get insomnia and it would be great to be able to have light to work by. A small desk light that only lights up my small area would be wonderful - it wouldn't shine in his eyes/head at all.
  
  
• Want - Banana Runts - I have a giant sweettooth and would love these in my life.

  I need you to see this Asshole Cat
  
  I want you to see this Animals Can be Jerks

Congratulations! We also had a Lego-themed wedding :)

You may know about these already, but we gave out these candies as party favors and they were a huge hit!

My friend found this candy called Super Lemon at an Asian grocery store. They're pretty similar to Warheads and very sour. I'd say the initial sourness is slightly less than Warheads, but it's close, and it lasts much longer.

Also, their packaging used to say "OH! Powerful Candy!" which is hilarious.

Smarties!!!

Smarties are probably the first candy I fell in love with. I eat them by stacking them between my middle finger and my thumb and taking the top one with my tongue like a frog.

Why should you gift these to me? Because ill take a picture to show you how weird i am when i eat them

omg... i freakin love lemon heads! omnomnom!! they are sweet but have some sour to them tooo. i kinda prefer the smaller ones vs the big ones in the link, but either way they are fantastic if you haven't had them yet?

If he likes coffee there's a good mug.

in case he needs a hug there's a friend to love.

Goodies always sweeten up a wishlist. If Robert isn't a Harry Potter fan, there's always Galaxy suckers to suck the life out of the universe or a nice display of suckers that are too pretty/awesome to eat.

If those don't have you sold, I've got nothing and here's a few organic bananas

I'm Canadian with family in Australia and Walmart shipping even sucks for me! I have great luck using Amazon.com, NOT .ca or .au and have no problem getting it to myself in Canada or my family in Australia. Try this link and best of luck! https://www.amazon.com/Campino-Yogurt-Fruit-Hard-Candies/dp/B006TL923A . This should work! If not, consider doing the "my po box" thing where you pay fifteen bucks and get a temporary American address. Then, that person ships it for you. I've done that before too. Have a great day!

Found you some! As an example ofc. My favorite are anything sour

Jolly Rancher Candy Canes in Bold Fruit Smoothie Flavors, 6.3-Ounce Boxes, 12-Count Packages (Pack of 2) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B1FR70Y/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_7x31BbS71WGTH

Oh the guy doesn't buy bullshit from etsy that's super overpriced and already opened... So more like $25 bucks for the jar.

If you can find candy bones, you could bake chocolate cupcakes with them inside (something like this or this). Then use green frosting to make it look like grass. You could make white chocolate dinosaurs (colored of course) to put on top as well. There are molds if you want to put a limit on the sugar intake for the bones.

You could also decorate them with easter candy eggs, and pretend that they are baby dinosaurs.

Turn that frown Upsidedown

I hope someone else hasn't already used this.

I hope you feel better o:

Chocolate orange chocolate chip cheesecake.

Take 4 boxes of cream cheese, open them and float the foil packs in a sink full of warm water for 15 minutes.

Open the foil and dump the cream cheese in a large bowl with 5 eggs and a cup and a half of sugar.

Mix by hand or with an electric mixer until smooth and consistent.

Add 1 tablespoon of vanilla, 1 teaspoon of orange extract, 1/4 cup of Grand Marnier and 3/4 cup of dutch processed cocoa powder (check the bulk foods aisle for that MUCH cheaper from bulk foods).

Again, mix until smooth and consistent.

Add an entire bag of miniature chocolate chips. IMPORTANT - full size chips will NOT melt all the way. Use mini chips.

Mix well.

Now, take a 9 inch springform cheesecake pan. Spray with non-stick cooking spray. Add in 1/4 cup dutch processed cocoa powder and tilt the pan around so it covers the entire inside of the pan. This will bake into a dark chocolate crust for the cheesecake.

Pour in the batter and bake at 200° F for 8 hours. This is called a slow bake cheesecake.

After 8 hours, remove from oven and set on a wire rack to cool to room temperature.

Refrigerate for several hours.

Tilt the pan on edge and rotate it around so the edge of the cake can pull away from the pan.

Put a plate on top, flip the cake upside down and remove the springform pan.

Now the recipe calls to flip it back over for serving, but I think it looks a lot cooler this way. Your choice.

Refrigerate overnight before serving. I decorate the top with those little candy orange slices.

I'm hosting a bridal shower on Sunday with this exact same thing, lol! The whole thing is HP themed, I'm going to post pictures of it sometime next week. (The bride is even going to wear a sorting hat to open her presents!)

(NOTE: I don't take credit for all of these ideas, I read a crap-ton of articles before deciding on everything)

Candy table:

• For Acid Pops, I'm using Charms Blow Pops rolled in pop rocks, so it's still a lollypop, but gives that shock flavor
  
  
• Chocolate frogs are actually the main favor, so made 50 frog boxes and did 50 molds it was... TIME CONSUMING.
  
  
• Twizzlers for Licorice wands
  
  
• Candy Corn as "werewolf teeth"
  
  
• Sugar Mice from a mold like this !
  
  
• We're just using regular jelly beans for Bertie Botts Every Falvor Beans
  
  
• Candy Bones!!

Marzipan Candy


A chocolate covered version


Mango pops in chili powder

Watermelon pops in chili powder

Not sure what these are called, but they are chewy and delicious

Since you're talking candy, I'd go with pulparindo. The OG yellow is really good the xtra hot (red) is also good. And the mango flavored is the bees knees. And its on amazon

If you're looking for a gift that pertains to her pregnancy, get her some Preggie Pops for morning sickness & The Business of Being Born. If you're interested in getting her some books, I suggest Ina May's Guide to Childbirth and/or Pregnancy Childbirth & The Newborn. And maybe consider getting your brother(?) a copy of The Birth Partner. I think every dad-to-be should read that book.

Relevant!!!! So delicious.

Cotton Mouth Candies work some kind of magic that I can’t really explain... you just need to try them. I’ve suggested these for dry mouth caused by stimulants, r/trees, chemo, you name it. Some drug stores carry them too, they’re in plain packaging and labeled “dry mouth lozenges” but they tend to be a little more expensive even though it’s the same product from the same company. They WORK. And they are delicious.

Chinese Good Luck Candy

I saw these recently and thought they would be a great gag gift- may I present to you finger hands. Or, who doesn't want gravy flavored candy canes

If you are really looking to dazzle them, I think this weird nicolas cage sequin pillow is just the thing.

They did this a few times you'll get something pathetic around Christmas.
ACTUAL EXAMPLES:
A COOKIE
A CUP (one of the $2 reusable ones)
AND MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE UNDER VALUED GIFT... A bag of ORANGE SLICES that the entire stores shares from...

Omg these are the best. And look. You can still buy them!


Brach's Milk Maid Royals, 2 LB https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005VRNO3M/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_uxeSDbJERM3ZC

Not sure if they're the same, but I got these for a friend for Christmas.

Cotton Mouth Candies, they work great.

Ooh, I think those are Brach's Milk Maid Royals. Those were delicious!

Salt mill and a box of Nerds. So they can offer fresh cracked candy over desserts.

Amazon sells these. 300 pieces of candy for all of your nostalgia wants!

The bag may look different, but it's the actual Creme Savers, as show on the official Wrigley website:

Damn they are bad. I got some of these in the local grocery store. It’s been a while since I’ve had the original and I thought these were ok. But reading the reviews, these sound better and have higher star rating. I actually hadn’t read the reviews on Amazon.

Fun fact: I have bought my brother this as one of his birthday gifts for the past 5 years or so because as kids he would steal my Halloween candy and eat all the runts besides the bananas.

My local walmart has them. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FKIYKI/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_1?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B000NMG1WG&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0PAHP0ZB6JBYWX85J9DA

Just throw in some bacon ones and it will look more normal.

Also, you are missing the gravy, coal, and krampus ones
