iPhones are everywhere.

Even in chocolate.

Check out these chocolates on etsy.com!!

How freakin' cool is this? They're made in Paris and they look like the iPhone app icons!! They're even packaged in a box that resembles an iPhone!

They are a little pricey - $49.96 for 20 chocolates - and shipping to the US is $22.40. But they are cool. Very cool.

Surely it won't be long before someone does something similar here in the US for a more reasonable price. Heck, even an iPhone cake covered with fondant would be cool - the app icons could be made from fondant, too. Or cupcakes decorated like app icons sitting in a box that looks like an iPhone or iPad...

I want chocolate.


Old Time Candy

Sunday, March 21, 2010


Who doesn't have a favorite candy from when you were a kid? Chances are, one or more of your favorites are no longer available. But there is an online store that has a TON of "old time candy"!

I've shopped at Old Time Candy in the past - they have great customer service & fast shipping. Right now, if you use the code ebunny, you get 10% off your order.

One of their offerings is a 5 lb. Easter basket for $39.99. The description from the site says:
Each basket is packed with jelly beans, speckled malted eggs, chocolate foiled eggs, caramel and marshmallow eggs, Reese's peanut butter eggs, chocolate Bunnyettes, yellow Peeps, chocolate animals, Cadbury Eggs, chocolate rabbit, Easter Pez, Tootsie bank, giant Pixy Stix and the following retro toys: paddle ball game, finger trap and wooden pop gun. The basket measures almost 12 inches wide at the top edge and 7.5 inches deep. It holds a whopping 5 lbs of candy and toys with a height of over 11 inches.

Then there is the 3 lb. Easter box for $24.99. The description is as follows:
Over three pounds of Easter favorites including yellow Peeps, chocolate foiled eggs, jelly beans, speckled malted eggs, caramel marshmallow eggs, chocolate Bunnyettes, Reese's Peanut Butter eggs, chocolate rabbit, chocolate Easter animal and Cadbury Eggs packed in an Easter box.

They also offer tons of other pre-made gift baskets/boxes. But my favorite thing is their bulk and penny candy - which you can use to pack-a-bag. Yes, that's right - just like you used to do at the penny candy store! You pick the candy and the amount and fill the bag with your favorite candies!!

Definitely check them out for a really neat option for Easter (or any other occasion, or really any non-occasion, because candy is always appropriate, LOL).
