Michel Cluizel Champignon Caramel - it’s quite an engineering achievement. The cap is an almond crunch covered in chocolate, the stem is filled with caramel, covered in dark chocolate then white.

These are a different kind of red lentil. They’re Kopper’s Milkies, like M&Ms only made with smoother milk chocolate. (Original review here.)

Another item I’ve bought several times, eaten and then never reviewed. This was a Poco Dolce Bittersweet Burnt Caramel Toffee Tile. (Package here.)

An arrangement of Mentos and a new product also from Perfetti van Melle called Crunchy Fruit-tella.

Pretty, pink and guava flavored candies. Quite a different texture from Altoids, LifeSavers or SweeTarts.

Thin black licorice vines filled with a vanilla cream. They were decent, more like candy than licorice. Package image here.

Here’s another bar I got a hold of and never reviewed. The American Zero Bar (made by Hershey’s) is like a white fudge Milky Way. I took its picture and then it promptly melted into an unreviewable puddle.
The Canadian Zero Bar is like a bar version of Ice Cubes. You can read The Candy Enthusiast’s reviews for more. Package image here.

Last week I got some new trees. I have quite a little orchard going on in my back yard now. The new citrus, Mineola Tangelo, Meyer Lemon and Yuzu, join my Persian Lime and Fig trees. Of course nothing is bearing fruit right now, but walking around them and seeing the green figs certainly got my mouth watering.
Last year I went to Compartes in Brentwood and was blown away with the glace Figs.
