I really like the bulk containers of spices at Costco. It is rare to find a big package of Caraway seed, but Rose Hill is great. They seeds are terrific in sauerkraut and pork recipes. They are also a must in rye bread. I love it.

I always buy a bunch of these peanuts when they go on sale at Giant Tiger. I like to have them around during holidays and big events. They are sweet and crunchy and the price is great.

This is a very unique bar that has a mix of cookies and white chocolate. They tend to be on the sweet side, but the cookie flavour is very chocolatey. However, I still prefer the milk chocolate bar instead.

It's funny but the only time I find these chocolates are at Halloween. When I was a kid I was so thrilled to get the minis in my trick or treat bag. I like the peanut butter flavour and the brown and orange colour. They are a happy and fun treat.

Remember the song...Turtles Turtles raw raw raw....mmmm I love Turtles. I can't imagine having Christmas without a bunch of these around the house. The caramel and pecans are heavenly and the chewy texture is awesome. Great gift idea too.

OK....this may be the best chocolate out there. Lindor has the most creamy tasting chocolate. Smooth and rich. The truffles melt in your mouth and the centers are mousse like and very soft. I could eat a pile of these.

This is a very unique chocolate. The fun part is banging it on the floor and having it separate into wedges. The orange flavour is not overpowering. The chocolate is creamy and not too sweet. I love it for holidays.

Vachon cakes are staple in most Quebec homes. The Ah Caramel cakes are unique with their little bubble filled with cream and caramel. The cake is white and then the whole thing covered in a thin layer of chocolate. It is one of the sweeter cakes...   +

Very nice balance of peanut butter and oatmeal. The texture is nice an crumbly. Great with a glass of milk. You can't have just one, they can become addictive.

I always keep a couple of these icings in the cupboard. Fantastic for carrot cake. Yes, it is a tad sweet and thin, but the price is cheap and when you don't have time or money to make your own cream cheese icing this is a good product to use.
