Meg Goes Nom Nom

Recently I was contacted by the folks over at Bocandy, with an offer to review their service on my blog in exchange for a complimentary bag of candy. Heck yeah, sign me up! I love trying new things, of course.

Bocandy is a subscription service for candy from around the world– kind of like Birchbox for treats. The treats arrived in a bright red padded shipper in my mailbox – unfortunately on the first warm Michigan day this spring, so my chocolate Curly Wurly treat got a little melted, but nothing a few minutes in the fridge couldn’t remedy.

Included in the May shipment were the following treats from around the world:

• 1 Curly Wurly Bar (UK)
• 4 Rademaker Hopjes Coffee Candies (Holland)
• 1 ION Chocofreta Bar (Greece) 
• 1 Haribo Roulette Roll (German) <- my fave!
• 3 Arcor Viena Assorted Fruit candies (Argentina)
• 1 roll of Haw Flakes (China) <- Surprisingly not bad.  I still don’t know what Haw is, though!
• 2 Krowki Milanowskie Chocolate Cream Fudge Bricks (Poland)
• Sea’s Gift Korean Seaweed Snack (South Korea)  (Bonus)

All in all, Bocandy is a really fun and affordable way to try treats from around the world that would otherwise be difficult to obtain without paying really pricy shipping. I’m not a huge candy eater, but I do usually have a small, sweet treat after dinner on most nights, so this was perfect!

If you’re interested in getting your own Bocandy shipment for yourself (or would make a fun gift for a friend), check out their website.

Thanks for the treats, Bocandy.
