I grew up in the east end of Ottawa and have many childhood memories of walking to Westgate Mall to get candy.
I remember pixie stixs, sponge toffee, black balls and more.
Naturally a store like Sugar Mountain is right up my alley. It’s so much fun to take the kids and show them what “mommy use to eat”.
Here’s a few photos of candy that I remember eating when I was a kid.
remember these?
love these!!
But the best part of my last trip to Sugar Mountain was to discover that COCONUT M&M’s are in Toronto. I no longer have to find them in the States. HOORAY.
From 2011...not 1975
I tweeted this picture immediately(cause I was so happy) and there was a flood of replies from other coconut m&m fans.
So tell me…whats your favorite candy from your childhood? was it a chocolate bar? or was it candy?
