See's Candies

One of my favorite things about See’s Candies would have to be the free samples. Ok, I admit that sometimes I walk by more than once just to get another one! See’s Candies are truly delicious. For a long time I thought they were made in St. Louis because they always open locations in St. Louis before Christmas. But, actually they are a California company that has locations in many states. My favorites are too numerous to name them all, but for starters I love the Gourmet Lollypops. They are delicious and rich tasting. Of course it goes without saying that I love the chocolates as well. The toffee is amazing, buttery and fresh with a delicious chocolate covering. I generally buy the 2 lb. Fancy Gold assortment to have on hand during the holiday season. It has the best mix of creams, nuts, brittles, truffles and fruits that I have found anywhere. They mail order and would be perfect for gifts and stocking stuffers. http://www.sees.com/home.cfm more

Yum! Who can resist a box of chocolates? Not me, and what I love about Sees Candies is that they have a ton of different boxes to choose from. What I love even more is that they offer a great 15% discount to employees from certain corporations- so tell them who you work for and bring proof and get a nice discount on your treat. They have boxed packages that go over great with out of area friends and offer you a sample while you wait in line- how awesome is that? more
