A Look At Some Seasonal Candy Treats

By Katina Brady


Regardless what holiday you are celebrating, most folks gather with family and friends to enjoy the foods and sweets of the season. Most people will agree that seasonal candy is one of the best parts of the celebration. When you think of every holiday you often will picture the special candies of the season that have become symbolic.

For example, jelly beans, cream filled eggs, little brightly colored marshmallow chicks, or chocolate eggs bring to mind the Easter season. If you celebrate the holiday you have no doubt grown up enjoying these treats during the celebration. What makes these sugary delights even more pleasurable is that they are only around for a short time.

During the winter holidays folks are able to purchase a large variety of candies. These sweet treats include peppermint bark, candy canes. Ribbon candy, and chocolate bells wrapped in bright colored silver. A lot of folks will choose a variety of these treats because they will not be around for very long. Because these sweets will be off the shelves until the next year, you might want to freeze extra.

Another holiday that promotes the giving of boxes of delectable chocolates is Valentines Day. You can also find heart shaped marshmallow treats that will become marshmallow chicks in another month. In addition, you can purchase bags of delicious heart shaped chocolates that are covered in bright red foil wrappers.

In addition, there are a number of Valentine sweets designed to grab the attention of children. Most children love getting the colored sweet hearts that come stamped with messages. Kids also are thrilled when they receive the little heart boxes of chocolate samples that have characters on them. And for the teen who has a special someone, chocolate roses make a great choice.

During the Halloween season stores of every type are overfilled with a large variety of treats. Not only do you have the choice of buying various chocolates and hard candies, you can select from a number of sizes. The candy bars are available in mini, bite, regular, and jumbo size. You can also purchase huge or regular sized bags of the goodies. If you pay attention, you will find the flavors that are popular at other holiday seasons transformed into spooky ghost and goblin shapes.

Not many people are able to resist the corn shaped sweets of the season. The tasty treat is now available in chocolate. Also, those little orange pumpkin shapes are made with the same recipe as he corn. These two specialty treats are ideal for the Thanksgiving and Halloween season because of their colors and shape.

When the season is over the candies are taken off the shelves of the stores. Even though these sweets are only available once a year there are enough holidays over the months to keep you in candy delights. Additionally, when you pay attention you will notice that your favorite flavors are often reshaped to fit the particular holiday. So in reality you can enjoy your favorite treat year round.
