Calabasas Candy Co. Review and Giveaway

I love a great piece of candy once in while.  Some of my favorites are caramels, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, and Hershey's Kisses in their variety of flavors.  Easter is such a great time of year to get your candy fix.  They have some great candies to munch on such as jelly beans, marshmallow eggs, and those yummy candies that we all love:Peeps.  I am so excited that they make Peeps almost all year around now for all different holidays.  My grandmother just loved Peeps, my mother and I bought her several of the bunnies and chicks for Easter every year.  There is a great little Etsy shop by the name of Calabasas Candy Co., that not only has some delicious Easter candy but other great selections of candy as well.  I was sent a variety of caramels, a heart-shaped sucker, a Cinnamon flavored marshmallow, and a four piece box of heart shaped truffles.  I gave the heart shaped sucker to my oldest daughter, because she not only loves candy of course, but her favorites are suckers.  Of course little one wanted it too, so being the great big sister that she is, she shared it with little one.  All I could hear from little one was "MMMM".  This sucker was so cute, it was hard to give it to them to eat.  They both enjoyed it, so I guess that's all that matters.  I ate the Cinnamon Marshmallow though.  This was SOOO good!  It was soft, fresh and had a really yummy cinnamon flavor and I absolutely love that this was handmade.  The truffles were out of this world.  They were so smooth and velvety and the chocolate was absolutely creamy and just so delicious.  There are just not enough words to say about these truffles.  I don't get truffles very often, so when I do they are definitely a treat and these were by far the BEST truffles that I have ever tasted.  I absolutely love that Calabasas Candy Co. makes all of their candies fresh and homemade and the quality of work that goes into each and every piece.  The caramels were also exquisite, buttery and soft.  I was sent regular and chocolate caramels and they were both very yummy!  They just absolutely melt in your mouth. I just can't say enough about this great little shop, there's a lot of love and dedication that goes into each piece of candy and you can definitely taste it.

All of the candies from Calabasas Candy Co. are made fresh to order ensuring the highest level of freshness and quality.  They are located near the California coast and famous for a relaxed, health conscious attitude.  They work closely with a local chocolatier who selects the finest exotic cocoa beans from around the world.  Their cocoa beans are all organic and ethically traded.  Calabasas Candy Co.'s caramels are made from their own exclusive recipe using only the finest, freshest ingredients.  They are always adding new and exciting flavors, so keep checking back, you never know what you'll find.
