Favorite Candy
« on: August 28, 2013, 03:34:00 PM »
What is everyone's favorite candy at SDC?

Example: Peanut Brittle? walnut brittle? fudge? hot cinnamon fireballs? taffy?
 
I didn't want to make it a poll, cause I'm sure I'd leave out somebody's favorite and then they'd hate me forever, but I was just curious what y'all think.

FYI Funnel Cake doesn't count

I love the peanut brittle! I take home at least a bag or two every year.  When I was a kid my favorite was a rock candy sucker on a wooden stick (pure sugar!), and my brother's was the giant jaw breaker.

Ok...cashew brittle. Peanut brittle next. Taffy, any flavor next. I remember during some fall crafts festivals in the early 80s a family that made fresh candy...it was excellent English toffee. That beat the cashew brittle.

Y'all are making me hungry.

@Junior,  :o bad junior, no candy for you  ;)

If funnel cakes aren't allowed, the judges have to disallow kettle corn and pork rinds also. I would say it has to be for sale in the candy store.

I was gonna ask if Chocolate covered strawberry's counted....but you answered that here....yes they sell them in the candy shop....it would be a tossup between those and the rocky road fudge :p

My wife and I always grab a couple chocolate covered strawberries in the spring & summer.
My grandmothers favorite was always the divinity.
You have a great past just ahead of you.
