MAKING S’MORES & EATING AMERICAN CANDY

October 27, 2015 in LIFESTYLE, Uncategorized

One of my most favourite sweet treats are S’mores. Everytime one of my friends or family goes to the US, I get them to bring me back graham crackers so that I can make them. As I don’t always have a handy campfire, I am forced to use my oven. Sometimes I make open S’mores and just bake marshmallows and chocolate in a dish layered on top of graham crackers; but sometimes I prefer them the traditional and very messy way.

How To Make S'mores

S'mores

To make traditional S’mores you will need graham crackers- I love the honey graham crackers from Honey Maid as they are very sweet. You’ll also need a milk chocolate Hershey’s bar and some white marshmallows. Lay a few squares of the chocolate and a couple of marshmallows on top of a cracker sheet, then lay another sheet loosely on top. I then make a little boat of tin foil around this so that the chocolatey marshmallow-y liquid doesn’t spill out the sides when it’s heating up. Finally, all you need to do is pop the parcel in the oven just long enough for the marshmallows to be squidgy and the chocolate soft but still able to hold its shape- this means you can have that joyous moment of squashing everything together in the sandwich and watching it oose out the sides.

Taffy Mail

I also love the novelty of American candy. Taffy Mail is a great US-candy subscription box service that delivers treats straight to your door every month. A Classic Plan subscription costs £14.99 per month, and for this you get 10-12 different candies and a can of soda. 

American Candy

In the October box, I got a can of Fanta Pineapple (how cool!), a Skor bar (basically the same as a Diam bar), a 100 Grand bar (just like a Toffee Crisp), Smoothie Peanut Butter Cups and a Hershey’s Cookies & Cream bar (milky white chocolate with Oreo-style cookie pieces).

American Candy UK

I also got some very sour and juicy Warheads Sour Chewy Cubes, red berry Chewy Lemonhead Redrifics (fruity gumdrops), Sour Goop Gum (which oozes in the centre), Sour Patch Kids (fruit-flavoured sour chews), some hard root bear flavoured Dad’s boiled sweets, a Blue Razz lollipop (tastes like blue Slush Puppies) and a Sour Apple Jaffy Taffy (which has the texture of a Maom).

Do you have any particular American candy or dessert favourites?

PR samples — It’s #friyayfaves time (# by @the PR samples — It’s #friyayfaves time (# by @the__glow__girl)Wake up on Valentine’s Day with some super cute treats from @lush Lush! They smell heavenly & my favourites all have that usual-for-me rose note running through them.
🥀
The Lush Heart Beat Bath Bomb has their famous Rose Jam scent with its beautiful rose absolute. It turns your bath deep pink & is deeply moisturising.
💕
Their Love Me Do Bath Bomb is another one for rose-filled bathing. It’ll turn your bath a deep red, with dried rose petals and dried lavender. So indulgent!
🥀 
The Rose Argan Massage Bar is another seasonal limited edition for Valentine’s Day. It has ruby cocoa liquor, Argan oil, rose absolute. It smells rich and luxe & it goes beautifully with my rose fragrances.
💕
Finally, the Naked Attraction Massage Bar is a returning favourite from last year. It’s a cocoa butter bar with jasmine extract, ylang ylang oil and osmanthus. It’s it so softening and moisturising and has such a beautiful unique floral scent.
