Welcome To The Candy Basket

Dark Chocolate Fleur De Sel Caramel

Milk Chocolate Fleur De Sel Salted Caramels

Gotta love this:

"It was in 1999 that The Candy Basket merged with Shorthill Taffy Factory, another locally owned and operated candy manufacturer since 1914. Shorthill Taffy Factory boasts four generations of women manufacturing the finest quality and variety of salt water taffy in the world. From our basic best sellers, Red Cinnamon, Peanut Butter, Licorice Swirl, and Peppermint, to our more exotic flavors, Paradise Plum, Asian Pear, Maple Bacon, and Jalapeno, each batch is slow cooked in copper kettles and pulled to perfection. Every batch is made fresh to order!

The two companies are a match made in heaven, in and out of the work place! Not only was a successful year for business born, but love was in the air, and we don’t mean Valentine’s Day. The owner of The Candy Basket, Inc., Dale C. Fuhr proposed to the owner of Shorthill Taffy Factory, Kipi Doran in August of 2001. As their love continues to grow, so does business!"

Pass on this one, Wife didn't like them at all.

I got some of these when they were offered previously. YUMMY!! Just wish they were all dark chocolate!

I got these in the Valentines day woot stuff. I am not a fan of Chocolate but the wife loved them. (she liked the dark chocolate the most).

LOL - my posts are showing up 30 minutes later.

Oh, these are just delicious. We knocked off a box only a month or so ago. They can't be resisted or eaten slowly. Never had this problem with any other candy (except of course, Cadbury mini-eggs). They have to be purchased but you have to undertand their power.

Yeah mine too

These were awesome!
We finished them and I would order more. But I don't need to eat another full box of them.

Salt with chocolate? Does it work?

Chocolate and Salt: An Inspired Combination

bah

...almost an hour late.

If you've never had these type of Caramels, then you're missing out. The small salt bits on top and just underneath the surface are insanely good with the soft caramel. Don't be thinking this is that super chewy, stick-n-your-teeth caramel either, it's melt in your mouth deeeeelicious caramel that's like a thick, creamy fudge consistancy. Mmmm... ok, I'm in for 3. ;-)

I bought these last time they were on Woot. They are really delicious....but the box was only 28oz which is not 2 lbs, just an FYI.

*sigh* tried so hard to get some caramels... couldn't even get a timely post with previous woot.

I got these on the last woot-off(?). These caramels are really really good. The salt mixed with the sweetness is amazing. The caramels are soft which adds to the texture. In for another 3!

Previous Woot from January here.

I bought a box for my wife for V-day. They were pretty awesome. Definitely worth the price (I wish I had ordered two but we are fat enough).

GET THESE. They are delicious, perfect little chocolate covered bites of heaven. I got a box when they offered them around Valentine's Day, and I had resorted to rationing them to make them last. Not anymore!! I ordered 3 boxes. (Don't tell my husband) :p

For anyone wondering about the flavor and consistency:

If you put them in the fridge, the texture is very chewy, like a Sugar Daddy. If you eat them at room temperature, the texture is soft, but not gooey. It's not going to run everywhere when you bite into it.

The flavor is rich and buttery, and skates that exact line between perfect caramel and burnt sugar. The chocolate is creamy and just the right thickness, and the salt on the top and bottom make it like a candy-covered pretzel, without the pretzel. I prefer the contrast between the dark chocolate and the caramel, but the milk is yummy too.

Buy up all you weirdos that come to wine.woot to not buy wine!

These were tasty, but frankly I thought they were overly salted. I ended up brushing much of the salt off.

So thrilled these came back. I ordered one box last time and was kicking myself. This time, in for 3. They took a long time to arrive, but were def worth the wait. Hoping this time the warmer weather doesn't affect them. They were perfect last time. I would have been so mad if I had missed these. Thanks Woot! This may just be my fav Woot ever.

I loved them, but a friend of mine thought they tasted weird b/c of the salt on top of them.

I got these for my Mom for her birthday - and then she turned around and mailed me some. I think it was revenge...

Anyway, I ate them, because I have a huge sweet tooth, but I didn't love them. The caramels were nice, but the salt didn't do it for me. But then I had never had salted caramels before, so YMMV.

Oh, and she really enjoyed them, shared them with the office, etc.

Booo, my post didn't go through.

Where are all the weirdos that come to a wine discount website to not buy wine?!

My wife and I both liked them. Seems like you get a million pieces though. We are going to have them for a while.

same price as last time. I would buy more, except I still have some left from the first time. 2lbs goes a long way between two people.

got these the last time they were offered. They are addictive, you have been warned. In for 3

(comment doesn't seem to be "sticking", like bad caramels on the roof of your mouth.. I apologize if this is a repeat)

My wife and I both loved these. But watching the waste line now and can't do it.

I still have the two boxes that I ordered for my wife on Valentines day. 2lbs of caramel was not what she was expecting. I wouldn't repurchase.

These things are so good, they're becoming an obsession with me! I actually spent two whole days last week eating nothing but these and drinking beer...and I lost five pounds! I can actually pull off my superskinny jeans without even unzipping them. I'm all ready to go on another two-day chocolate and beer binge...these things are so important for a girl's ego!

I tried to add a post about how yummy these are, but I guess it's lost in the ether. Get some.
