Double your candy pleasure.

Two candy items of note today.

Joanna sent this Sugar Savvy article on salted butter caramel. I was highly dubious on the salty/sweet combo when it comes to caramel, but I tried some at Sahagun and it was a delight. The salt in the caramel really is a delight. The Sugar Savvy site now has a candy librarian where you can submit questions on candy, like is dark chocolate increasing market share vs. milk or is it just more available?

Brack sent note of Hometown Favorites, which is in the town next to our mutual hometown. They stock hard to find candy and other food items. There is a $20 minimum order, but unlike a lot of other mail order candy stores, they do sell individual items. So if you read Candyfreak and want to try the Twin Bing, but don't want to buy a case of them, this is your place. You can get Valomilks at the store too, but you can also get those at Cracker Barrel.
