Guilty pleasures!!

[Mad Cook]

Oh, divine. I haven't seen that variety on the Hagen Daz shelf round here.

Caramel and toffee are to me what chocolate is to most other people. Toffee ripple ice cream, toffee muffins, caramel sauce on anything, *Grandma Singleton's Salted Caramel Cheese and I daren't have a can of Carnation Caramel in the house because I'd eat it with a spoon! I can be strong minded about most things but not caramel

*Singletons is a farmhouse dairy in Lancashire which makes cheese and the salted caramel cheese is to die for. I'm not a great cheese eater but when I found the salted caramel Cheese I broke a piece off to taste it and ended eating the whole 75 grammes in one go!

to be read in a vincent price stylee:well done ladies,i'm impressed with the depths of food depravity that you can sink to....but i'm sure we haven't plumbed the true depths of naughtiness lurking in the dark recesses of your kitchen cupboards yet....no,not the gimp mask & handcuffs princess..this is a family forum as you keep reminding me!

These are despised in the UK (because of the horribly cheesy adverts). But what can I say? A delectable combination of nuts and chocolate!

I am a big fan of those and the Ferrero Raffaello Almond Coconut Candy!

I love love (love!) chocolate. When I saw the picture though, yeah, it looks good, but it also, looks good. As in my first reaction was, "Oooh, pretty. Look at the colors in that photo!" A picture like that would be beautiful in an old log cabin style building used to house a candy store. My second reaction was to wonder where the hubby hid my chocolate...

tunnocks tea cakes,ahh!! a wondrous confection with legs...no,not those kind of legs,i mean they've been going for yonks.for the uninitiated they comprised of a soft biscuit base & an A cup size dome of marshmallow all covered in the cheapest,most sickly coating of chocolate...perfick!!when i was a kid they were eaten by first applying gentle pressure to the chocolate so that it broke up like a hard boiled egg shell,the bits were picked off & eaten then the marshmallow dome was peeled off the base,the biscuit eaten & then the marshmallow last of all!!sadly the filling is now a sort of whipped mousse so one is forced to stick the whole thing in one's gob all in one go.rude not to really!!

They have become politically correct. They used to call them "Cream buns", "Negro buns", and Negro kisses". Now they are just "cream buns".
