Being a typical guy, I probably give about half a second’s thought per month to hand soap. I’ve been using a seemingly endless bottle of Dial for probably the better part of a decade. Every time I go under the sink to refill the dispenser, there never seems to be any less than before.
I stumbled […]

Given that we are probably going to bring on some new writers soon, I figured now was a good time to unveil our new staff page. Be sure and click on each person’s name to read about him/her. Take a look and let me know what you think.
While we’re talking about the site, I added […]

Ahh, the age old conundrum: sweet vs. savory. I face it every time I go out for breakfast, but I never considered it an issue with candy. After all, candy is and should be sweet, right? Well, leave it to Pennsylvania-based Sugar Plum to mess with my reality. I recently received samples of two products: […]

Free candy samples are always nice to receive, but the Melville box provided a uniquely fun experience. The Melville pops and spoons were so fun to look at that I was hesitant to try them because I didn’t want to ruin them. Melville gets big points on packaging and creative molding. The handles of […]

In this great technologically-advanced world, it’s nice to know that one older form of communication has endured, albeit in a slightly tastier form. Naturally, I refer to the telegram and its newest incarnation, the Chocotelegram.
Available in numerous preselected phrases or as a personalized message, it’s the perfect way to make up for that forgotten birthday, […]

Finding fresh-made candy hasn’t been a problem, really. You can step into just about any mall or local old-time candy store and get some candy that was just made that day (or heck, make your own). Getting fresh-made candy in your local big-box store or convenience store isn’t so easy. Yeah, it doesn’t expire til […]

Japan’s 7-11 stores have jumped onto the limited edition KitKat bandwagon. It’s not surprising that they want in on this very profitable market. 7-11 has released three new flavors that you can only find in their convenience stores, which thankfully isn’t a hard thing considering how common they are. The three KitKat flavors are Banana […]

If you’ve ever wanted to get paid to write about candy (and get free candy shipped to you to review), now is your chance! Candy Addict is looking for some more writers to add to our staff! We can’t keep up with all the goings-on in the candy world. We need help!
What am I looking […]

Recently, the folks at Route 29 Napa sent over a box of their sweetest treats for review. When I saw the ice-cold gel pack nestled right on top of the candy box, I knew I was dealing with something special. You don’t get that level of detail and care from many companies, and I hoped […]

Jelly Belly recently sent us a free bag of their new Licorice Bears to review, and I had the pleasure of sampling the delicacy.
At first blush, I thought these bears would be like the Katjes Kinder I previously reviewed and didn’t enjoy. They looked very hard, but I figured I should give it a try, […]
