Growing up in the Midwest, I ate many Fanny May and Dutch Mill chocolates. After moving to Southern California I was introduced to See's Candies and their chocolates are delectable and affordable too.
Dutch Mill is no longer in business, Fanny May is now part of a very big company, and lucky for us See's is still going strong.
From the first bite of the first caramel I swooned and saw my happy future with the rest of the box. Since I took this picture I've eaten a few more and there are more to be eaten but I'm savoring them one (or two) at a time. Seriously, this box of chocolate is a little bit of chewy, chocolate heaven. Thanks again May for bringing Russell over.

Love this phrase: "and saw my happy future with the rest of the box."
ReplyDeleteI'll think of you if I happen to taste some of these chocolates.
Do you have a favorite Sees candy? Mine is almonds in dark chocolate.
I love the dark chocolate walnut squares, with dc caramels a close second. Good chocolates are really wonderful - even just one brings so much enjoyment. I think I'll go have one now!
