Candy of Your Old Favorites


Candy is truly a great gift to this world. It may rot our teeth and make little kids too excited, but it is a great little treat when used in moderation. You may remember the joy you felt in your childhood, when a pocketful of pennies could get you a nice bag of bulk candy. They are just a standard mix of sweets and treats to thrill and amaze. The good news is that most of these old favorites are still around in one form or another, even if they cost more than a few pennies.
Haribo is one of the biggest modern dealers. If it's sweet and gummy, then they are probably the ones who made it. Their biggest product is easily gummi bears though. I really hope I don't have to explain too much about gummi bears. They are little fruit-flavored bears shaped out of gummy gelatin. They generally offer a great mixture of sweet and gummy and they are big favorites with the children. They are also popular with a lot of craft and hobbyists. The little bears last well and are just perfect for the figures in a number of candy art displays. Don't even get me started about gingerbread houses.


Haribo gummi bears aren't the only thing that's still around. If you just take a look at any supermarket you'll be able to find a good selection of your old favorites lining the halls. You may be surprised at the latest marketplace though. There area bunch of places that you can order your bulk candy online. You will have to buy in bulk. They aren't going to send a dollar bag of gummi bears to your house. But the order can be fairly small and still qualify for free shipping. If you really think about it, it makes perfect sense. Candy is pretty hardy and won't spoil. Just keep it fairly cool and unsquashed, and you're fine. This is also a good way to get the good stuff. Everyone should know that some of the best gummi bears are the ones you can get from Haribo at Epcot. Now you can order those new and fresh bears from an online catalog and they'll show up right at your door. What more could you ask for from your candy supplier?
These are just a few basics things to remember when it comes to candy. Just take pride in the fact that a lot of your old favorites are still around for you to enjoy today.
