For a mint-flavoured chocolate, these were pretty good. They look really pretty in Christmas lootbags. If you are a fan of candy-flavoured confections, you will probably love these, but they are very sweet.

These are an all-time favourite.
A milk chocolate center is covered in a hard candy shell.
I love these and so do my kids. I think they are softer and flatter than M&Ms;, so they were always my first pick when my kids were small. Any time I want to pick up a treat for a small child, the first thing I think of is Smarties.
They are also great for baking in cookies instead of chocolate chips.

These are a delicious hollow chocolate egg with a plastic egg inside that holds a surprise toy.
Every time we go to the store my daughters beg to get them. They are a little on the pricey side, so they are something we only get once in a while, but they provide a small chocolate treat as well as a toy to amuse them for a while. The majority of the toys we've found inside have been delightful, and my daughters have never been disappointment with the surprise they've found.

Another delicious chocolate bar. I love how this one breaks into four pieces. It allows us to share easily. The layers of wafers give a satisfying crunch, and there is just enough chocolate to satisfy a chocolate craving.

These are a must-have during the holidays. The look beautiful out in a nice bowl with all the colours and shiny wrappers. There is a variety of chocolates and toffees - something for everyone, which is probably why they've become such a staple for holiday get-togethers.
While I love them, they have eliminated a lot of flavours over the years, including a few of my favourites, and they are fairly expensive for the amount of chocolate inside. Still, you do get to keep the tin, and I have several I use for cookies that are decades old.

Tiny little Twix bars - hard not to love!
These are delicious. Almost like a shortbread with a layer of caramel on top and dipped in chocolate. They are sweet and chewy with just a little bit of crunch from the cookie. I will definitely be buying them again....and keeping them where they are hard to reach!

I am required to buy at least one of these a year for my husband's stocking. He doesn't generally like chocolate, but these are his absolute favourite.
They are orange-flavoured chocolate and segmented like an orange inside. A firm whack against a hard surface will break it into individual segments.
They are also good broken up as chocolate chunks in cookies if there is an orange-flavoured chocolate lover in your family.

These are a must-have in the kids' Easter baskets every year.
They are a delicous butter cream coloured to resemble the inside of an egg, inside a thick coating of Cadbury chocolate. I love them personally, but I have noticed them getting smaller.
What I am not a fan of, is the new plastic cover. It seems wasteful and makes it harder to try to fit in little eggcups. It does make it easier for small children to open; however, especially if they are the type to leave bits of foil on the chocolate and swallow it accidently.

I didn't buy an exersaucer for my first daughter and carried her everywhere. When my second one came along, I was determined to have something to sit her in to amuse herself so I could treat myself to the decadance of a five-minute shower or a trip to the washroom by myself.
This worked out great. It was the lowest price I could find, but it was still sturdy and kept my daughter secure and amused.

After having my daughter I was apprehensive to take her to the grocery store or out to a restaurant to sit in a grimy babyseat. I had visions of my friends' kids chewing on the buckles and teething on the handles of grocery carts. I picked this up, and I really did use it, frequently. It stood up to a lot of laundering and was easy to leave in the car for impromptu trips.
It worked really well for us, and I'd definitely recommend one for a new mom.
