A Taste of See's Candies

I just received my golden box of See's Candies - all the way from U.S...thanks to Alan & Bee Wooi!

Anyway, this should be my 2nd time tasting See's Candies. First time was when one of my IDT US counterpart gave one of us as souvenirs.

Anyway, this 1 pound box costs me a freaking USD17 - which is almost RM58. Expensive huh? Well, being a chocolate lover, and considering that it is not often you can get people to help you buy it from US, it should be worth it ya?


I haven't told Peter that I just spent USD17 for a box of chocolates! But then come to think of it, even if I tell him, I don't think he will scold me, coz See's Candies is owned by Berkshire Hathaway! Hahaha....

Look at the amazing wrapping on the box. It was wrapped in gold.

And look at all those irresistable mouth-watering chocolates.....

However, when I actually have a taste of them, I find them too sweet for my liking. These chocs are smooth and rich, which means a quality chocolate, but I really find them a tad too sweet.
I don't remember them being this sweet when I first tasted a piece last time. Well, either they make them sweeter now, or eating just a piece the last time I didn't quite taste the sweetness.

So, nah, they are not my favourite chocs!
