November Candy Club Challenge

Since fall is here, I have chosen a type of candy that will fit right into

your Harvest Cornucopia

This month the Candy Club Challenge is
FRUIT!

What's that you say? Fruit is not a candy!

well....Sweet B says it is....

For this month's challenge you have to eat, make,

buy for yourself (or your loved ones)

one of the following:

Candied fruit - Ahhhhh yes, it's fruit, so it should count as something good for you -BUT - it's drenched in sugar, so it's really baaaaad for you! I will be attempting to make candied sliced grapefruit and oranges THEN dipping them in chocolate - double points for me!~


Chocolate dipped fruit - easy to make - Oh so easy to eat! Try mixing peanut butter in with the chocolate before dipping bananas or strawberries!

Fruit jellies or any kind of candy made with fruit juice - aplets and cotlets are my personal favorites! As you may or may not know, I have my own classification system for Candy - Fruit Jellies fall under "Grandparent Candy" - but that's a discussion for another day.

Marzipan Fruits - An acquired taste- but one worth acquiring!

(click here to visit the "gingerbread house heaven" a totally awesome website!)

~the prize is a Sweet B Candy Container~

it is not quite finished so I should be posting it up in the next 4 days.

To enter, simply post a confectionery comment about one or all of the four fruit treats mentioned above!

Eat your Fruit!
