How about hard caramel chocolates, something like a Fantale or a Cobber, have to be careful chewing them, I have been known to lose a filling which is not good.

Cadbury’s Roses for me, it’s about the only box of gluten free chocolates you can get, lucky I love them.

I love the old fashioned sweet called “MINT LEAVES”……it is a soft green Jube shaped like a leaf dipped in sugar and has an unusual minty flavour.

Hard chewy jubes are my favourite along with black jelly beans. Would you believe I don’t particularly like chocolate!! I’ll leave that to someone else.

Thanks, Brenda, for sharing “Sweet Dreams” with us. It’s inspiring as well as “sweet”.
My favorite sweet usually contains the refreshing combination of chocolate and mint.
