Gourmet Valentine's Gifts For The Sweetheart With A Sweet Tooth!

image
As much as your honey might complain every time there's something sweet on the table to threaten their status as a size 2 (ha!), Valentine's Day is one of the few occasions that you just have to let yourself indulge. I mean, the holiday just wouldn't be complete without at least a box of chocolates, whether you're sharing them with your Valentine or just trying to make the night more bearable for your single self (who needs a man when you have candy, anyway?). But I say if your significant other is going to take the opportunity to go wayward with their resolution diet, help make it count with gourmet V-Day goodies. I'm talkin' melt-in-your-mouth Petit Fours from Williams-Sonoma, pink cupcakes from Godiva (heck yes they make cupcakes!), or if you're a sucker for tradition, swap your usual store-bought chocolates with couture truffles from Vosges! Yeah, they're meant to be gifts... I just hope your Valentine is willing to share! If the thought of all these treats isn't enough to tempt you, check out the slideshow to really start drooling.

10 Candy Colored Accessories To Satisfy Your Stylish Sweet Tooth!

image
It doesn't make sense when someone tries to apply the saying, "Like a kid in a candy store...", when referring to me because I still get very excited over jellybeans and gummy bears, but unlike a kid, I'm old enough to care about the empty calories that candy brings. Candy is essentially just flavored sugar, so what is it that makes it so appealing and fun to eat, as opposed to just downing packets of refined sugar at the local coffee shop for a sweet fix? It's the fun and eye-catching colors on gumballs and jujubes that make us turn our heads, puts a smile on our faces and has us gravitating towards the Ye Olde Sweet Shoppe window. Now they've taken this same childhood charm and translated it into something just as bright and cheerful, but with much more style (and a lot less calories!) to make it perfect for adults! Bright beads on necklaces and earrings and sweetly colored bracelets and sunglasses add fun focal points into any ensemble, and would also look perfect for Spring. So gather your weekly pocket money and click on the slideshow to see my favorite candy-colored jewelry that will leave you like a kid in a candy store!

Hot In The Hive: Vosges Haut Chocolat Mini Exotic Chocolate Bar Library

image
What's a good way to relax and spend some quality quiet time alone this winter? Curling up with a good book under a snuggly comforter near the fireplace and maybe sipping on something hot and sweet. What would make this cozy scenario even better? If the books themselves were made of chocolate. While not all of us may love literature, we can all appreciate chocolate bars! Vosges Haut Chocolat is a high-quality candy company that makes everything from classic truffles to wild chocolates like the legendary Bacon Bar. The Vosges Haut Chocolat Mini Chocolate Library comes with a selection of tastes including classic milk and dark as well as an exotic flavors collection that include Oaxaca and something known only as "Woolloomooloo." This mini chocolate bar library comes in a cute box with a ribbon and definitely resembles a row of books... until you open each of the individually wrapped bars and devour them. It's a perfect gift or stocking stuffer for the chocolate lover/bookworm in your life!


Price: $25.00
Who Found It: idabone was first to add the Vosges Haut Chocolat Mini Chocolate Library to the Hive.

Hot In The Hive: Philosophy Candy Corn Shower Gel

image
I don't know about you, but when I think of Halloween, the word that most prominently comes to mind is hardly a scary one -- "candy." Mini Skittles packets, fun-size Snickers, king-size candy bars from the nice old man down the street. Oh, and candy corn! Can't forget the candy corn. However, now that we're well past our trick-or-treating days (sort of), and we're more or less haunted by the effects of all those extra calories, we body-conscious ladies have to find healthier ways of getting our Halloween sugar fix. Thanks to Philosophy and all their signature yummy-scented bath and beauty products, we can literally douse ourselves in Halloween-festive sweetness without so much as a cavity. The Candy Corn Shower Gel is actually a 3-in-1 high-foaming cleanser that can be used as shampoo, body wash, and even bubble bath. It smells so much like the real thing, your sweet tooth will either be totally satiated by the end of your shower, or seriously tempting you to raid your sister's hard-earned trick-or-treating loot.


Price: $16

Too Old For Trick-Or-Treating? Try These Tasty Halloween Treats!

image
Besides my own birthday, Halloween has always been my favorite holiday. Halloween is a holiday like something straight out of a Tim Burton/ Charles Dickens special: the costumes, the parties, the mystery, the lighthearted pranks that we all pulled on each other ... and the best part of it is the sugary treats that make the tricks a little sweeter. Fun-sized classic candy bars are still great, but now that we're a little older, the door-to-door inquiry for candies, while would probably be just as fun, is much less appropriate. Luckily for us, though, although being older means no more trick-or-treating, it does mean great parties, smaller costumes and Halloween treats much better than even full sized chocolate bars dropped into your pillow case. Check out the slide-show to see some frighteningly fabulous Halloween treats that'll really amaze your guests!
