Mommy's Favorite Things: A Candy Store Review & Giveaway

A Candy Store Review & Giveaway



So when I contacted this WONDERFUL Company, I was thinking I would get one or two items to sample. Oh BOY was I WRONG!!!! If I had known how much I was going to get, I probably would've never conttacted them. It's just so much!!
I'm of course talking about A Candy Store. They are a bulk candy store.

They sent me are you ready for it 28 pounds of candy! YES 28 POUNDS!!!!


Yes, that's a LOT of candy. My box of candy weighed as much as AVERY did!!!!
She let me choose everything I wanted. So I did. It had to be under a certain amount and I JUST made it!!

I got 5lb, 12 flavor Gummy Bears, 4.5lb Strawberry Banana Rings, 5lb of Jolly Ranchers, 48ct Charms Sweet Pops, 5lb Salt water Taffy, 10ct Swizzle Sticks, 48ct Fun Dip.

I wanted Caramel Apple Pops, but they were out so she sent the Sweet Pops instead. Avery likes them so that's good. I like everything else. Jon isn't a candy person, so this is all mine. It will probably go bad before it's all gone. The Strawberry banana rings are almost gone, but Avery and Jon have been eating these as well. Gummy bears are hardly touched. A couple swizzle sticks are gone, some jolly ranchers and some taffy. I have barely touched this stuff. 

I like candy, but I'm the kind of person to sit down and eat 1-2 pieces after dinner. So this will take a while to get through.

But I'm very happy with it all and with all my choices. I just know that it will take a while! I like that it's bulk and some of it is set up for a store as well. 

Most of my Jolly ranchers will be given out at Halloween this year!!!

Price: Everything was fairly priced I though. I won't go through everything, but 48 ct fun dip $10. 5lb of Gummy Bears $14.50. 5lb of Jolly Ranchers $17.50. I really think these are great prices. I mean 5lbs of candy doesn't go very fast!!

Overall: *****


 *Disclaimer* I received these products directly from the Company for Review. I was not paid to try out these products!*

My favorite candy is the Caramel Block; and, my favorite from the gummy/jelly section is the Haribo Gummi Grapefruit (Pink or White) or any SOUR candy (such as Sour Patch or Gummi Poppers). sorry, I know you asked for only one--but, it was kind of hard to narrow it down to just one.

I signed up for the newsletter. I love so many kinds of candy, it's hard to pick just one. In general, my favorite candy is red Swedish fish (any size will do). My favorite gummy candy is also the red Swedish fish; but I would be so excited to try the fruit slices, different cola bottles and multi-flavored gummy bears too!
