CandyGirl: February 2009
http://robinthecandygirl.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 9, 2009. Pop Pop, Fizz Fizz! I'd like to thank my friend, Katie, for reminding me of this wonderful candy from my childhood. She went to dinner at Joe's Crab Shack. Saturday night, and had a Rockin Popin Pomegranate Margarita, which is a Pomagranate Margarita with a Pomagranate juice floater. The magic comes along when the drink is brought to the table and the server pours a packet of Pop Rocks on top! Ahhh, Pop Rocks. So they were gone forever. . OK, who believes that one? Another amazi...

CandyGirl: March 2009
http://robinthecandygirl.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 5, 2009. Just a Quick Query. I am going to Australia in a week and I would love to try some of the local candies there. I know I have some well-travelled readers out there, so do you have any suggestions for candies that are only available in Oz? The Rainbow - Let's Talk. Those brightly colored, fruit flavored little gems that fill your mouth with their sugary goodness! A Dark Side. While they make delicious sweets, they have a history of confusing their customers. And now the Nou...So I ...

CandyGirl: Candy Buttons
http://robinthecandygirl.blogspot.com/2009/01/candy-buttons.html
Friday, January 23, 2009. I love candy, but I was a little stumped when I sat down to write my very first CandyBlog. So many possibilities! And it had to be great! It had to be truly inspired! It had to knock your socks off! So I started surfing the net in search of inspiration, and that's when I found it. So beautiful in its simplicity - classic, but oddly post-modern. That's right! I'm talking about Candy Buttons, folks! I recently discovered them at North Park Vaudeville and Candy Shop. Yes, Candy But...

CandyGirl: As American as 100 Grand
http://robinthecandygirl.blogspot.com/2009/01/as-american-as-100-grand.html
Friday, January 30, 2009. As American as 100 Grand. In the 1950's, $100,000 was a lot of money; so much that it was the Grand Prize for a popular game show called, The Big Surprise. Even in 1966, when the $100,000 Bar was introduced by Nestle. The $100,000 Bar hit the scene in 1966, and was inspired by the above-mentioned games show. Mysteriously, the name was changed in 1985 to the 100 Grand Bar. Why? Thank you for contacting Nestlé 100 Grand Bar. We appreciate your interest and hope you will visit our ...

CandyGirl: The Rainbow - Let's Talk
http://robinthecandygirl.blogspot.com/2009/03/rainbow-lets-talk.html
Thursday, March 5, 2009. The Rainbow - Let's Talk. Those brightly colored, fruit flavored little gems that fill your mouth with their sugary goodness! They have been a favorite of mine since childhood. But there is another side to Skittles, a darker side. Yes, while not made of nougat themselves, they are a part of The Nougat Empire. . Overall, the Commune has been supportive. Skittles has been lauded for embracing Social Media and using it in a bold new way that other corporations would never dare t...

CandyGirl: Where Have All the Mars Bars Gone?
http://robinthecandygirl.blogspot.com/2009/01/where-have-all-mars-bars-gone.html
Sunday, January 25, 2009. Where Have All the Mars Bars Gone? Thanks to Lisa Byrnes of Clairemont, I now have the topic for my next CandyBlog! Lisa asks, "Can you tell me why Mars Bars disappeared. and can only be found in dark chocolate English style now? After doing some research, I found several possible explanations. Some of my favorites include:. George W Bush doesn't care about Mars Bars.". God blessed us with the High 5 Bar and nothing else matters anymore.". So I asked the folks over at Mars.
