If you're anything like me, chocolate is an addiction that I deal with everyday! When See's Candies asked me to do a review on their chocolate, I almost said no. I had just started a self proclaimed healthy eating campaign. It ended almost as soon as it began!
How could I say no to See's Candies? I'm very familiar with See's. Not only their chocolates but their lollypops and peanut brittle. Every holiday, my aunt brings a big box of peanut brittle that we just can't wait to devour. See the picture below and you'll understand why...yum!
The other day, I received my cute little package of chocolate and my boys and I literally ripped the plastic from the outside of the box! We immediately started checking out all of the pieces, trying to identify the flavors. I was kind of surprised because I thought for sure a flavor guide would be in the box. It made me think of that famous movie quote..."Life is like a box of chocolates..." You know the rest. I do not like to be surprised when I bite into chocolate!
Then, I noticed a little insert from the box. You can go online HERE and discover exactly what flavors you have so you won't be caught off guard!
