Sugar Savvy

‘Tis the season of egg nog truffles, chocolate Santas and, of course, candy canes and gelt.  That makes this the season of See’s Candies to me.

Here is an overview of some of the seasonal treats See’s offers by mail order and in its stores.  For more on See’s Candies and a taste of Sugar Savvy’s reviews of their year round offerings, click through The Chocolate Box category on the site.

The white chocolate covered egg nog truffles feature See’s premium chocolate inside each oval and are decorated with green and red wreaths. 

See’s sells six-ounce boxes of miniature, foil-wrapped chocolate snowmen.  Or go for the traditional – chocolate Santas.  Each is 5.5 ounces of milk chocolate.  The colorful foil wrapper shows Santa in all his glory, carrying gifts, including a box of See’s Candy.  Speaking of boxes of See’s Candy, the company is offering several ’specially decorated boxes and tins for Christmas, as well as its regular packaging and a silver box for Chanukah.

Also for Chanukah, they are offering a blue box filled with gelt, the gold foil-covered chocolate coins used for playing the traditional dreidel game.

See’s offers candy canes in several of its gift assortments, as well as its “climber canes,” each .75 ounce confection topped with an icing Santa or snowman.

It’s not too late to sample some of the company’s fall specialties too, including a pecan pie truffle and autumn themed gift boxes.
