The accidental hedonist has a history of
candy canes and how they came to be associated with Christmas. On the subject of holiday treats, the
Washington Post reports on a store in Bethesda that has gen-u-wine
Ricciarelli available for mail order. And here is someone who likes the new Hershey
dark chocolate and then there is the
See's Awesome Bar, which is apparently the dark nougat in bar form, a sure fire winner.
Speaking of candy treats, I tried the orange and the coffee Kit-Kats today. Orage was dee-lish, sort of like the frosting on those yellowy Hostess cupcakes. The coffee-flavored Kit-Kat was, in the [poorly dubbed] words of some Iron Chef judge while sampling mushroom/squid sorbet, "truly awful."

Yes, the orange Kit Kat is a delight, a true treat. I didn't think coffee was so bad though. I still envy the Brits, what with their Christmas pudding flavored one.
