My Answer to the Daily Prompt . . .

What’s your favorite candy?

I must admit, at different times in my life, I have favoured different sorts of ‘candy’.

As a young child, it was Cherry Ripe – because my uncle would always pretend he had a little birdy friend who left them on the window sill – but only when we’d been good.

As I got a little older, it was Golden Rough, because I loved the crunch of the roasted coconut.

I remember loving Violet Crumble because:

“It’s the way it shatters that matters.”

There have been many favourites over the years.

And I’m getting a sense that it’s the ‘chocolate’ that attracts me.

But, unequivocally, (at the moment anyway) it’s Cadbury’s (Fry’s) Turkish Delight.

I admit I don’t like Turkish Delight that isn’t coated in milk chocolate because I find the rose water too overpowering. But there is something oh so lovely about the addition of a milk chocolate coating mixed and that soft, gooey pink centre containing just a hint of rose water.

Best of all though, Dean does not like Turkish Delight so I’m always assured that if a box of chocolates makes its way into our home, these divinely, deliciously, and delectable little delights are all mine.


Oh yeah, I stole all of these images from various online candy stores.
