Like almost any girl, I simply adore chocolate and can never get enough. The chocolate overseas is so much better than it is in America. (I have a sneaking suspicion that it's because no country other than the U.S. is as obsessed with putting corn syrup in everything as we are.) When Palmetto Belle was stationed in Germany, she would periodically send me care packages of nothing but German chocolates. (I refuse to comment on how quickly those disappeared.) Since moving to Germany, I have bought plenty of candy to send to friends as care packages and am constantly buying more!
Since 'tis the season for candy, one lucky reader will receive a candy care package from me. The contents of the care package will be a surprise of my choosing, but it will be an assortment of chocolates and gummy candy along with some other treats from here. Here are some of my favorites that the lucky winner can look forward to:
I cannot sent anyone Kinder Eggs as much as I love them because those apparently get confiscated by customs.
This giveaway is open to current followers only. To enter, leave a comment on here by Wednesday, September 22nd at midnight EST, with your favorite type of candy.

ReplyDeleteI am drooling! I miss kinder products! The eggs are hallow and people can sneak stuff into them then reseal them, that's why their confiscated. I think that's 3 entries for me and I hope I win, I miss euro chocolate so much! I suggest you add kinder bars. They're the best

ReplyDeleteWhat was that last one with the green center? Dude, those kinder hippos are the bomb dot com. My utimate global favorte, though, is still cadbury caramel. I dont even know what makes it stand out - I think it it the taste of chocolate. Cadbury is awesome. xoxo BFF JILL
Girl, count me IN! Foreign chocolate is the bomb dot com. I'm a follower of course;) My favorite candy is actually a non-American one. It's violet crumbles. Yum Yum!! Flake is pretty good too! I sent an e-card does that count??!? tehe. email your new addy, and I'll start sending some snail mail your way. Can I put it directly to you or do I still need to put it to TLS in attn of you?
ReplyDeleteFavorite candy? This is incredibly hard, I would say it would be Ferrero Rocher. Chocolate and hazelnut, it's a bit of amazingness right in your mouth.
ReplyDeleteKinder Eggs! I have a Kinder Egg toy here on my desk. :-)
ReplyDeleteYes, I follow you. Do I get an entry for the Real Housewives tweet updates when you were under the weather?
Cheers!
I'll comment for chocolate! I read that about the kinder balls when we were in the customs office last week! i havent had one yet. i really enjoy the milka candy bars, but I noticed those & ritter sport are slowly making appearances in the states. =)
ReplyDeleteI actually have a box sitting here that I need to get out to you, but I have something I need to pick up from my mom's first! Let me know if there's anything you're missing from back home (US related, not New York related, sorry) and I'll pop it in too. It's only got a few issues of September magazines so far.
ReplyDeleteThat's so weird that customs won't allow Kinder eggs. You can get them in speciality shops here and I took tons home last time I came back from England. Brice and I even found them in the airport in Mexico. I have a great picture of him with a one of the Kinder Hippo's hanging out of his mouth. We are huge Kinder fans over here! They may not be the BEST chocolate, but they sure make eating chocolate fun (instead of just yummy)!
I'm a follower! I sent a package and another is on it's way as soon as one item arrives to be sent out. (Your syrup has been tougher to hunt down than expected, apparently it is discontinued, but have no fear, it's in route to my apt as we speak!) And I like just about any candy. Any salt and chocolate or caramel combination is the current favorite.
