Parents! Let me shout that again, PARENTS!! Are you so tired of wasting your money on going out to dinner with your kids, and hoping for the small possibility of a semi-enjoyable evening?
You are not asking for the moon and stars. You just want to eat somewhere other than your kitchen or backyard, right? You want someone else to do the cooking for you, right? Yet, the fear that builds up inside of you as you enter the confinds of a, dare I say it, RESTAURANT, can be so overwhelming you ask yourself, “Why, oh why do I bother?”
Let us help you! We are mothers over here at Southwest Candy. We are also women who want to DINE OUT for goodness sake! Husbands hear our cries! We have solved the problem for you! ENTER…. THE LOLLIPOP!
Viewing Exhibit A:
 Here sits a darling little girl. Gorgeous big brown eyes hypnotizing anyone who comes into contact with her. She smiles- even more intoxicating. Now you are under her spell. You are getting messages to the brain saying, “I am adorable. I am a good girl. Please take me out and show me off. I promise I will behave. You KNOW you want to get out of the house!”
You are suddenly taken over by these hypnotic messages. You round up the troops, call your husband to meet you at the restaurant, and BAM! You find yourself in a panic as the kids become restless, and those damn crayons and coloring pages are not entertaining anyone but the other customers who were hit in the back of the head with them.
Suddenly, you remember your secret weapon. You ordered from Southwest Candy, and you armed yourself with LOLLIPOPS! Mini Tootsie Pops, Dum Dums, Charms Mini Pops, and even Dr. John’s Sugar Free Lollpops are all options for you- you have a very large purse! Just as the waitress carries over your glass of chardonnay, you pop a lollipop in each childs’ mouth. Ahhh….. cocktails and dreams baby!
Viewing Exhibit B:
 Did someone say, “Road Trip?” In the past, they may have been a pipe dream for you and your screaming family of hellions. UNTIL NOW. Tootsie Pops, Blow Pops, Caramel Apple Pops, Big Slice Pops, heck, give Whirly Pops a shot! These are all lollipops that last, and last, and last. Great for road trips when your kids are constantly asking, “Are we there yet?”
Step one- use them as a prize. “If you behave until we get to grandma’s house, you get a lollipop!”
Step two- use them as a threat. “Oh no, you are not going to get your lollipop if you keep it up!”
Step three- use as a muzzle. “Put this in your mouth, and I don’t want to hear a word until we get to grandma’s!”
Let Southwest Candy help you manage your children. We understand what it takes to have peace, quiet, and sanity. Do not underestimate the power of being the mom with a lollipop in her purse. YOU are in control. YOU are the boss. YOUR children will LISTEN!
Who’s Your Candy?

Just came upon a great article that affirmed that I CAN eat sweets…here’s what they say…,”he amount of sugar you eat doesn’t matter as much as the amount of time it is allowed to remain in contact with the plaque on your teeth (that’s where the
bacteria hang out.) So go ahead and eat that pound of caramels—just brush your teeth afterward”
Whew I feel much better now. Me and my Oral B are best friends already so bring on the candies, its holiday time and the sweets are a plenty! I mean really who couldnt resist a caramel apple lollipop,

Father's Day is in two weeks so if you are out of ideas, turn to candy to help revive your creative side.
My dad is a lover of Tootsie Rolls Assorted Flavors. Soft and juicy flavors of lime, orange, lemon, vanilla, and cherry- put a smile on my pop's face!
Another recommendation would be the ever-famous Root beer Barrel. Like a creamy soda pop, the root beer barrel has that tang and fizz with each taste.
Now let's talk caramel. My step-father puts his blood sugar into a spin everytime he walks past the Goetze Caramel Creams- also known as, Bullseyes. I have to admit I am a sucker for these as well.
My father-in-law is kind of a nutty guy. He enjoys his pecans, peanuts, pistachios, etc. So a recommendation for him might beHoneycombed Peanuts hard candy.
My hubby has a favorite that is quite fitting- he's my Bit-O-Honey and so is his favorite candy.
Now if dad favors chocolate, might I suggest the fabulous Riesens? European chocolate with chewy caramel inside- a lovely combination that tells your main man, "you matter to me!"
Last but not least, if dad has lived his life well and spoiled himself silly with too much candy, he may need our sugar-free line of candy. Fortunately we have a great assortment of candy and lollipops- even sugar-free caramels for sugar happy daddy.
Shower dad with love, and sprinkle him with candy! After all, "He brought you into this world, and he can take you out"- Bill Cosby

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?

Sweet Services and Southwest Candy are now offering several varieties of the Dr. John's Brand of Sugar Free Candy.
VISIT OUR SUGAR-FREE CANDY PAGE FOR PURCHASING!
Dr. John’s Candies® are made with the finest flavors and sweeteners available. They use the sweetener "HSH" in combination with the booster sweetener Sunett®. HSH, a revolutionary new sweetener, also known as Hydrogenated Starch Hydrolysates, is derived from a purely natural source… corn.
Dr. John's sugar free hard candies contain no salt, no fat, no preservatives, and of course, no sugar! Best of all, there is little or no intestinal upset and no aftertaste.
Dr. John’s sugar free candies do not promote tooth decay and are helpful in relieving symptoms of dry mouth.
Dr. John’s Herbal Lollipops actually disable the bacteria that cause tooth decay.
Herbal treatments have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for over 3,000 years. Recently, after years of testing herbs associated with oral health, microbiologists from the Department of Oral Biology at the UCLA School of Dentistry have identified a specific herbal formula extracted from the Chinese licorice root that targets and disables the major organisms (Streptococcus mutans and sobrinus) that cause tooth decay
Now, Dr. John's Candies, in collaboration with C3 Jian and its Intelliherb™ extract, has combined their great tasting, orange-flavored sugar free candy formula with ground breaking cavity fighting herbal extracts to offer you… Dr. John's Herbal Lollipops.
One Dr. John's Herbal Lollipop in in the morning and one lollipop in the evening, for 10 days, disables tooth decay bacteria for 3 to 6 months. Therefore, use a 20-Pack between 2 and 4 times per year.
