I admit it! I am totally a reality TV junkie! Don't you remember getting together with friends every week to watch Survivor? That is when it all started!
The new season of The Bachelorettejust started! So it is time for you ladies to get together with friends and watch as it all unfolds!! You get to see the amazing clothes that Ali wears, look at 25 single very cute guys and see the amazing places they end up this season! I hear they are hitting Portugal, Iceland, Turkey and Tahiti! That is reason enough to watch!
Don't forget the snacks! Here are my suggestions!
Jelly Belly's! Grab a handful, sit back on the couch and watch the action! 
Bubble Gum! It is great for those tense moments! Chew! Chew! Chew! 
Candy Rings! Too cute for watching The Bachelorette, right?!
Lollipops! Tootsie Roll Pops, Dum Dums, Charms…you name it! They would all be great!
  
So far I like Chris L., Roberto and Jesse…..another great summer of reality TV is on its way!
Who's Your Candy?

Close your eyes and imagine a place where you can sample all the candy you want, AND go home with a bag of candy that you can fill until you can't fit anymore- welcome to Chicago's All Candy Expo. Its new name, is The Sweets & Snacks Expo- I guess they have expanded beyond just candy these days. Perhaps it is a way of giving savory treats some publicity? I'm down with that- salty foods need props too.
All the big name brands (to name a few): Jelly Belly, Tootsie Roll, Wrigley, Nestle, Hershey, Spangler, Charms, Brach, Farley & Sathers- they will all be there ready to impress the distributors with mouth-watering new candy lines. I remember going there as a kid and I was so excited to sample Reeses' Nutrageous before it even set foot out on the market!
So if you are a bulk candy/snacks distributor, a vending machine owner, or you're just plain lucky enough to get hooked up with a pass to go to the show, here is some advice before you go:
1- If you are a diabetic, bring some insulin!
2- Eat your protein for breakfast because it is carbohydrate city once you walk through the doors!
3- It wouldn't hurt to get in an early workout prior to going- it'll make you feel less guilty when you go home with a belly ache.
4- Bring a Tide Pen. You might get a chocolate stain on your clothes from sampling!
5- Bring the largest purse you have in your closet- might I recommend a Louis Vuitton Speedy 35?

It's not too late to plan something great for the Mom in your life!! Mother's Day is May 9th and we still have some great treats that say…….
"Mom, you are the best!! Thanks for all you do!!"
**Try putting some Jelly Belly Dutch Chocolate Mints in a beautiful glass bowl with a big ribbon!
**Or how about a DELICIOUS bag of Riesen's! They are a blast from the past and are AMAZING! She will LOVE them!
**If chocolate is not what you are looking for, try one of our many Brach's candies! The Milk Maid Caramel's are extremely popular and would also look great in a colorful bag or bowl.
**And if you already have a wonderful brunch planned for the amazing Mom in your life, don't forget…candy makes a great centerpiece! Check out our beautiful Twinkle Pops for great ideas!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY EVERYONE!

Brilliant! Need a last minute gift idea for Easter? Perhaps Mother's Day? This could be a very original communion or confirmation gift as well…..
The Jelly Bean Candy Candle! Thanks to Suite 101, here is a fun way to use your jelly beans…be sure to visit our Jelly Belly Jelly Bean page before you dive into this recipe.
Materials you will need to make one or more candles:
- Clear candle wax
- Old pan and can
- Metal gelatin molds
- Awl
- Custard cup
- Small white birthday candles
- Small-assorted colored jellybeans
- Break the wax into very small pieces, place wax in the can, and then place the can in the pan. Fill the pan halfway with water, and then place it on the stove to heat the wax. When the wax is just melted, reduce the heat. Never use the microwave to heat wax!
- Using the awl, puncture a small hole in the top of the mold, and then invert the mold into the custard cup to keep it level. Place a birthday candle upside down into the hole of the mold, this is the candlewick.
- Place a few jellybeans into the bottom of the mold, and then pour a little wax into the mold. Continue adding jelly beans and wax until the mold is full. Allow the wax to cool completely before turning the mold over to release the candle.

Looking for an inexpensive, customized, and fast preparation time wedding favor? Consider bulk candy.
It is spring time and weddings are upon us. But with all your planning, have you remembered to order your wedding favors? Here's why wholesale bulk candy can save you…..
Inexpensive: buying candy in bulk saves you money.
Customized: buying from a candy wholesale distributor gives you many varieties to choose from in order to customize your candy arrangement for each guest.
Fast Preparation: ordering from www.southwestcandy.com if you are on the West Coast or www.sweetservices.com if you are in the Midwest or on the East Coast gets you in-stock candy within 3 days or less.
Need some ideas? Check out these:
Stay simple, nostalgic, and fun with Whirly Pops or Carnival Pops. These are old fashioned looking large lollipops, which could have stickers placed on them with the bride and groom's names.
Think bright and festive by visiting our Soft Candy for Jelly Belly Jelly Beans, NEW Lifesaver Jelly Beans, Starbursts, or Fruit Disks. Fill little champagne flutes, cordial glasses, or mini vases with any of these for a colorful display.
Bring out your color scheme by using our Frooties, Jolly Pops, or Tootsie Pops available in single colors for you to coordinate with your wedding. Think lollipop bouquets and cellophane treat bags tied with ribbons and bows.
Get original with specialty lollipops such as Twinkle Pops or novelties like candy rings (with this ring, I thee wed- get it?).
Whatever you choose you cannot go wrong with something sweet for your wedding guests.

Easter is around the corner and purchasing bulk candy is a great way to save money. Many churches and community centers, as well as grocery stores, host Easter egg hunts and give away Easter baskets. Therefore the need for finding wholesale candy is necessary.
Fill your Easter baskets with colorful Hershey Spring Kisses and Miniatures. Stuff your Easter eggs with Jelly Belly Jelly Beans. Save money with Palmer Chocolate Easter Eggs and Chocolate Eastertoons- these are a great buy if you are looking to cut costs but do not want to disappoint the little people.
Banks can thank their customers with Charms Easter Pops or Tootsie Roll Mini Easter Lollipops.
The celebration of Easter and spring time is here! Host your parties appropriately…. with lollipops, chocolate, and jelly beans!
