Scribbles About Food: Caramel M&Ms

These are different than I expected... and I think that is wayyyy better actually! I kind of thought these would be M&Ms with a gooey caramel center... but it's actually a little bit harder... sort of like a milk dud... but with the hard M&Ms shell! That sounds super delicious right? And it is! It isn't as hard as a milk dud though. It's pretty soft and chewy. I know someone that was having tooth problems and she ate some of these and it wasn't too hard for her to eat. A milk dud probably would have... but these kind of give the same effect as a milk dud without being too hard on your teeth. I like Milk Duds... but I prefer these! I would eat these over milk duds. They're just really good. The caramel is nice too... to me it tastes better than a Milk Dud's caramel... and I kind of like the M&M chocolate better... so these are pretty addictive and fun to eat. The bag these come in is nice and easy too! It has a resealable ziplock type of featu...

Scribbles About Food: Hershey's Cupcake Kisses and Red Velvet Kit Kats

So this is a "new" flavor from Hershey's in their kisses line... it's really good and it's really cute... but I have to say, don't really think that this is a very "new" candy. It is white chocolate with pink crunches inside. The pink crunches were a nice surprise for me. If you look on the outside it just looks like white chocolate... there's no hint of crunchiness... so the crunch was a nice surprise touch. It also does taste a little but more like icing than white chocolate or vanilla... there's a bit of a frosting smell when you open it up. Overall, these would be cute in a kids goody bag or for baking or something... they aren't the most creative or different candy out there... but they are pretty good. I liked them a lot! Red Velvet Kit Kats  These are also white chocolate... but they have a red velvet filling on the inside and the nice crispy crunch of a Kit Kat Bar. These are very very sweet... like even sweeter than the...

Scribbles About Food:Milka Oreo Big Crunch Bars

So I got these a while ago, as an Advent Calendar Present actually and I still have some because its absolutely huge and it is delicious... but if you can't find it... I think you can make it yourself. It's pretty much the side of the oreo with cream covered in Milka chocolate... so that in itself is the most delicious thing you could imagine, right? The cookie is surrounded by the cream and then surrounded by chocolate... which is really delicious. It looks like they have different variations coming soon. They have a snack mix coming soon that looks like a crazy delicious version of a trail mix with only Oreos and Chocolate... omg this is going to be dangerous. And as yummy as this tastes... if you want to make these yourself you probably can. I don't really see a reason to do this right now... it is probably more expensive in the long run and time consuming... but if you were to melt milka chocolate and then dip the creamy side of the oreo and freeze it... you can get...

Falling For Fall Tag

So I saw this tag  here . I just googled fall tags and this was my favorite that came up... so yeah! 1. Apple Cider or Hot Chocolate? Hmmm tough one... I think Apple Cider just because thats what I associate more with fall. Hot Chocolate I'll have Winter... or any time of year really but Apple Cider is the Fall Time Treat. And if you're from the Central Jersey area... you know Delicious Orchards Cider is where its at! That is also something you can get year round... but that is where its at!  2. Thanksgiving or Halloween? Definitely DEFINITELY Halloween. I'm a spooky person. My dream man would probably be either Fox Mulder or Dean Winchester. I'm born in October... I love Candy and I love dressing up... and lately I'm convinced I'm a werewolf.  3. Do you call this season Autumn or Fall? I usually say fall... but I love the word Autumn and the name Autumn. That's something I would consider naming a daughter!  4. Favorite Halloween Costume...

Scribbles About Food: M&Ms Reviews

So these new M&Ms are delicious! They are crispy and smores flavored and really nice! Smores  I think these really get the nice flavor of the smores.... but still M&Ms-y...and just overall super yummy. The graham cracker-yness of the smores-y and they just taste really good and chocolatey! And I love smores and Crispy M&Ms so... this is a great combo. My mom thought they tasted like something other than Smores... idk. The Marshmallow flavor isn't really there so they just kind of like my favorite snack "Shannon's Lazy Girl S'mores" which I love. Its just smores without the marshmallow... and thats what it tastes like! Its very sweet... like I just ate a bunch of these at once and its just really great and chocolatey... I just like it a lot. Lol. So yeah... I recommend these. I really like them and I'm going to try the "Voting" m&ms from the contest and see which one I'm voting for! Coffee Nut  Ugh... didn't love ...

Scribbles About Food: Cadbury Egg Cookies

So like these are very much like the crunchie cookies, but these ones taste a lot different than the Candy Source Material. Don't get me wrong, these are delicious. The Chocolate on the outside is good, the cookie on the inside is good, and it is pretty wonderful to have a bit of the Cadbury Cream inside of a delicious cookie... but the problem is its just a bit. With the Cadbury chocolate eggs, you get a lot of cream within the egg itself... not so with this one! It isn't bad, I kind of like that its just like a kiss of Cadbury Cream in the middle... but I want more. Which sounds inappropriate but I just expect my Candy Cream Filling to be a little more present and not just give a slight hint of a taste. So are these good... they aren't bad. But do I think they aren't as good as the Crunchie Cookies, they aren't as good as a regular Cadbury Cream Egg... and they just would not be my first Easter Candy Snack of choice... so I'd say no. These aren't bes...

Scribbles About food: More Pumpkin/ Fall Stuff!

So I've tried a few more pumpkin and apple flavored candies and I wanted to kind of give little mini reviews of what I thought of these treats. Some of these I may have reviewed already... some I may have mentioned in a Weekly Wrap Up... but they are all delicious and I felt like mentioning them. 1) Candy Apple Twizzlers- When you open these up they smell really really sour... but then they have a really nice apple flavor on the twizzler and the caramel on the inside is such a good texture for it and its so sweet and just really nice. This is a great flavor combo and I really like these. Highly recommend trying them! 2) Caramel Apple Oreos- I feel like I might have mentioned these in another Scribble About food... but these are also really delicious. These really got the flavor down for the caramel apple part. It tastes so good. One of my favorite seasonal oreos that they have. Really flavorful, sweet and just good. 3) Green Mountain Pumpkin Spice K Cups- Ohhh my gosh these a...

Weekly Wrap Up: 10/4/15

Favorites Scream Queens- I've really been enjoying Ryan Murphy's new show... I'm kind of in love. I don't know if I even want to venture guesses as to who the killers are yet... I'm suspicious of Munsh, I'm suspicious of Grace's dad... I'm a bit suspicious of Chad Radwell and Boone definitely has something up with him... I think if Chanel #1 were the killer it would be too obvious... but I could see it being Chanel #3 or Chanel #5. I'm really excited to find out more about Chanel #3... she might be my favorite so far. Chanel #5 is good too. I love Abigail Breslin and she just looks so pretty in this! Caramel Apple Twizzlers - These are... good. Thats just it they are awesome. It sounds a little weird for a candy... but it tastes delicious. It smells really sour... but the caramel on the inside just balances it out so well... and it just tastes absolutely delicious. I'm really loving these Twizzlers... might be my new favorite fall candy... wh...

Scribbles About Food: Pumpkin Spice Latte M&Ms

So M&Ms put out a new fall flavor and naturally... I had to try it and here is a review. Now M&Ms had a pumpkin flavor last year, and it was not fantastic. It just tasted like normal M&Ms and it wasn't great. It wasn't bad but the flavor wasn't there. They also have Candy Corn M&Ms which are nice... but nothing with the "candy corn" flavor gets the real flavor of candy corn. Its just a super sweet white chocolate m&m. And that is basically it. So with that being said, I really wanted to try them... but I wasn't expecting much. I didn't think they would be very flavorful, I didn't know if the latte flavor would work. But I was wrong. These are really delicious, they're incredibly flavorful and it isn't weird. It is a little bit too sweet, you can't eat like a whole bag and not realize it... you'll notice lol. But they just taste so good and the flavors just work really really well together. Its such a unique and...

Halloween 2014 It List!

I wanted to share my Halloween favorites... but I thought why not do it like an It List... so that is what we have here today. 1) American Horror Story- I think we all know one of my favorites around this time of year especially is AHS... the episode this week was sooo soo good too. The legend of the guy with the demon face... I just thought it was particularly interesting. Not a lot of Twisty the clown, which I'm fine with... lol. It was still scary and really good all around though. All the seasons have fantastic halloween episodes especially. And season 1&3 are just good all around. 2) Addams Family Values- I love a good halloween movie, but Addams Family Values has to be my favorite ever. It is probably in my Top 10 favorite movies of all time... and I just think its super super funny. The first one is good too, but this is one of the rare movies where the sequel is wayyy better. Joan Cusak is amazing in it and you can tell she must have had a great time being the bad g...

Scribbles about Food: Hershey's Chocolate World Haul &Taste Test

So I've already said I just went to Hershey Park and I bought some chocolate and stuff that I've never seen or tried before so I thought I would share my thoughts and tastes of everything.  First off I got a Whatchamacallit Bar. I've seen these bars before, but I've never actually tried it. I figured when in Hershey, eat what the Hersheyians eat lol. I really liked this bar. It was chocolatey and it had rice crispies in the middle that were peanut butter flavored. It also had caramel and it was just really good overall. Ive seen these before,but they are harder to find, so I will look for them again.  I mostly bought Candy Kisses. They had all the different flavors, they didn't have my favorite which is the Chocolate Cherry flavor, but they did have a lot of good ones that are also harder to find. I bought a bag of the Cookies and Cream kisses. I love the cookies and cream bars and I had seen these before,but these aren't something easy to find so I grabbed a ba...
