I love marzipan! 
 

I wish they did marzipan pigs where I live. They sound amazing! Plus pigs are one of my favourite animals 😊

If you could get your hands on some marzipan, there are guides you can follow to make the ones exactly like we do in Sweden! I usually make marzipan bunnies myself. But turns out I'm the only one in my Swenglish family that eats it, so I haven't bothered lately  😅

They are a proper treat! I wish they did them here! Sometimes my local Lidl brings in Swedish stuff randomly so fingers crossed! 😅

Oooo, going to have to go to the shop to get some Marzipan soon! I’d try my best to use the guides to make one, but I’d probably end up getting annoyed and eat all the Marzipan as I’m attempting to make one xD  

That sounds amazing that you used to make marzipan bunnies yourself! You sound  really talented! 
 

Oh haha 😂

Oh haha 😂 

The amount of times I've ended up eating things that were intended to look beautiful 😅 I mean your tummy won't tell the difference so I say that's still a win 😅

If you do try to make one I would love to see it of course!

I didn't mention my favorite!! Terry's oranges for the win! They're orange-flavored chocolate replicas of an orange (minus the peel, of course), so the slices are textured and there's even a chocolate stem in the middle, but they taste really good

Quality street chocolates. (Especially the green triangle!)

Okay. So. It took some looking (The candy isle of two different stores, plus the christmas area of one of them) but I found quality streets. However, it was kind of different than what you're describing, and also, 22.99 which I am much too cheap for. I might get that tin if I can talk a friend into going halfsies with me

That's so funny--I just learned what those are earlier today! I found a Terry's Chocolate Orange Loaf Cake recipe that I might try too!

I love Terry's chocolate oranges! I've only been able to try one a couple of times before, but they're so good.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned peppermint bark as a favorite candy, though!

Anyone tried the new mint Terry’s chocolate orange yet?

My husband loves them! I can't stand mint but he says they are good 😊 Have you noticed they have also done and After Eight Orange Mint?! Got it today as a stocking filler 😊

Let me know what you think of them. I actually do like a bit of After Eight (but otherwise I can't really stand it), so might nick one off my husband if they're good!
