    The white mint truffles and egg nog truffles make me starving for delicious see’s candies. I unfortunately cannot afford these kinds of goodies normally so even thinking of what I would choose is crazy.

    I love See’s candies. We recently tried the chocolate covered peanut brittle candy bars at the mall. They were amazing. I could see myself buying $25 worth of candy bars and eating them all in one sitting. Yummo
