I cheerfully confess that I love candy corn - especially the Harvesst Mellocremes. These are delicious - a variety of shapes, colors and flavors, and I The am happy to find them on CandyFavorites. My only "complaint" is that I wish these came not just in 5 lb. bags, but perhaps 2 lb. bags as well. I gave some to my neighbors, who were thrilled and really liked these. Welcome Fall - with these Harvest Mellocreme delicious candies!
I have loved Halloween Mellowcremes all my life and the assortment you have has not been in stores for years. All I can get is corn or mix of pumpkins and corn. Last year I found your assortment and was back again this year to order. I admit to being a 'hog' for them but thats ok. Thanks for your wonderful service too.
