Oh Henry

Type: Limited Edition Oh Henry with dark chocolate
Crunchy peanuts, chewy caramel, covered in dark chocolate.
Origin: Canada
Manufacture: Hersey's Canada
Purchase from a gas station somewhere between Ottawa and Toronto.

I have always on the look out for limited edition chocolates. And after months of blogging, reviewing and searching for limited edition chocolates, i have found that the best place to look for them are in mom and pap's store.

The peanuts are chunky, dry roasted and crunchy. I can't really taste the caramel and the dark chocolate. It is definitely chewy and fudgy. Overall the experienced coming from this bar is crunchy and chewy.

Smarties


Type: Chocolate hard shell
Origin: Canada
Manufacture: Nestle
Purchase from Dominion Supermarket Toronto, CA

Colorful and bright hard shell. Crunchy and sweet. They are thinner and more colorful than M&M. In terms of flavor, i prefer Smarties to M&M. Smarites has better flavor consistency.

Laura Secord Mini Easter Egg

Type: Mini Easter Egg
Origin: Canada
Manufacture: Laura Secord
Purchase from Laura Secord Store in Montreal, Canada

Laura Secord is both a Canadian legend and tradition. Laura Secord is what See's Candy is in the States. They currently have 140 stores across Canada.

According to my bother who study and lives in Canada, chocolates made from Laura Secord is a must try. I have decided to try on the Mini Easter Egg.

I love the bright yellow packaging. The chocolate is a perfect egg-shaped, soft and just melt in your mouth. The egg tasted exquisite. The filling is a white creamy buttermilk covered in dark chocolate.

Jujubes and Jujyfruits

Type: a fat free candy.
Manufacture: Farley's & Sathers Candy Company,Inc.
Origin: U.S.A
Purchased from CVS West Lafayette, Indiana

I have seen these boxes many many times at the local stores and they are not attracted or appealing to me and i have never thought of buying and reviewing them yet.

My brother who is in Purdue University, Indiana is coming to meet me and the other brother in Toronto, Canada. And i have requested to bring me some of the locals candy or chocolates. NOT surprisingly to me, these candy were what he bought.

Jujubes are the mini versions of DOTS. They have same flavor as DOTS as well. As for the texture, these candy are extremely hard, unpleasant and uncomfortable to chew.
