These are Hershey’s Peppermint Kisses from the first year they appeared in stores. Back then they were made with real chocolate as opposed to white mocklate that it is now. Regardless, they are still beautiful to look at.

So very colorful for the holidays! I love the new color schemes that break the traditional color palette. With such colors, I’m sure these candy canes are good for any time of year.

Jelly Belly has cute little boxes of “Christmas Mix” available this year. The flavors are Very Cherry, Green Apple, Coconut and Red Apple. Yummy!

Candy apples have gotten very intricate in recent years. A good macro can show all the new textures they come in.

This is an image of an old candy trade from June 2007 from a good Japanese friend of mine. It’s a great example of candy that’s been tapered to Japanese tastes. The flavors shown here are Red (Adzuki) bean, Green Tea and Black Sesame, all flavors which the Japanese people associate with sweets and have been used in confections for centuries. It’s cool to see how these flavors are now incorporated into modern candy.
