I think you would have to be a blind man to not see the displays they have out! I can see it from a mile away and it is like a screaming Beacon to children , I am sure. I can't imagine trying to walk by with a hungry child. And by hungry, I do not mean in the sense of them starving but hungry for a little bit of sugar!
I especially like the third picture because it is like a piece of art with all that color displayed at different intervals.. Interesting and oh! I think I see something that I might eat! I can remember the coins that used to be with chocolate in them. We would get them at Easter time. I can't remember exactly why it Easter no other time of the year oh, but maybe it had something to do with Mardi Gras? There is just such a variety different candy there.
I have not been a child for a long time too but the bright colors really catch my eye and I might even be tempted to try one or two but I think that I would be disappointed because candy is not the same as when I was growing up. They have done something to reduce amount of sugar or calories or taste! So then I might just buy a balloon instead! Lol
This is the type of stool that is definitely dangerous to go in so I think I shall settle it all and just grab a bottle of wine and run! I hope you have a most wonderful weekend and thank you, as always, for participating in Market Friday! I know that it takes a lot of effort and time to put a post together.
#MarketFriday loves you!!
Upped and steemed
!tip
you are right one hundred percent !!!!! it's more beautiful than delicious. and really it does not taste like those sweets that we ate since childhood. so I would choose only the balloon too! :))))))
Isn't that funny what we have settled for? We have allowed them to make everything less and we buy it without a fight!
LOL
Hi, Tali! I hope you are having a most wonderful day!
you're right!!!! if there was no demand for it, manufacturers might not have dropped to the like. I try to cook desserts as much as possible myself. It may not be so beautiful, but tasty and does not harm the body. I am now looking for a recipe to cook chocolate myself with the least amount of butter.
I found this on the internet but don't know how good it is, but, it was only 4 ingredients! Maybe good in an emergency! :)
Full recipe:
Add 20 gm of Unsalted butter in the pan, wait till it melts. Put 30 gm sugar in it stir it till it gets to dissolve. Then put 20 gm cocoa powder and 15 gm of milk powder and mix well. Put the mixture in any mold you like and refrigerate it for 2 hours.
Now it is ready to serve.
If you want to make Dark chocolate don't add the milk powder in the mixture.
No promises! I never tried it!
oooooh !!!! my dear, you are so kind !!!! you spent time searching for this recipe !!!! I really appreciate it!!!!! My difficulty is that I cannot eat milk and dairy products due to lactose intolerance. but that would be trivial because I found a lot of milk replacers. the trouble is that my body cannot process fats and oils. Many chocolate recipes come in a lot of fats. I can eat chocolate in which only 27% of fat per 100 grams. but I can not find how they cook it, what replaces fats to cook tasty and light chocolate.
Oh, you are so sweet! When I am perusing the recipes, I will keep an eye out for one. xoxo
