Title: Customized M&M's.
Post by: angela515 on October 05, 2007, 09:40:39 PM
WOW! I was going to get my nieces some M&M's with "Happy Birthday (Name)" on them... but not after I seen the prices.

www.mymms.com


I think their a very kewl idea, but very overpriced... at least for a 6 yr old and a 5 yr old...  :lol; Now for a wedding, I would do it.. or even a transplant ;) However at that young of an age they would just be like YAY candy.. lol.

What do you all think?

Too expensive unless you can still read the message in the toilet bowl.  ;)

Angela, I agree. At those ages, they're just going to say "yay candy" and not care what they say. Wait until their sweet 16 birthdays for stuff like that.

Hershey's has a similar thing with the Kisses Wrappers. Then there are special chocolate cards that can be made with names and not to mention the 5 lbs candy bar that can have a special engraving. I wish i had some chocolate now!

I buy my daughter the 5 lb bar every christmas- it takes her two weeks to eat it- she eats a chunk every day, and its the best tfood she eats all year (according to her)

After my transplant, the Food Network had a show called Unwrapped.The show was featuring chocolates and they showed a 10 pound candy bar. Went to their website to find where I could get it. I got it, but needed a hammer to break it apart for pieces. Only took a week and a half to finish by myself. It may have cost less and be bigger than the Hershey bar, but Hershey taste waaaaay better.

My kids and I love Unwrapped. I love chocolate. The is a candy factory not far from us. I love the big boxes of irregulars. I don't go there often because when I buy it I eat too much.

We were going to order M&M's for my son's wedding but they were
too expensive.  Here in central Ohio the Krogers have small bags of
scarlet and gray M&M'ss for the Buckeyes on sale.  After the football season
they are rreduced a lot.  Last year I got some for stocking stuffers for my
boys.  That was a fun thing.  They used them for the championship game.

I liked the white chocolate M&M's that were out for the movie Pirates of the Carribean. I haven't seen them around lately.

Sometimes this site has chocolates that were limited
www.hometownfavorites.com  You can either buy a carton of something or individual chocolate candy.
Another site from the show Unwrapped.

We were going to get them for our wedding, but after I saw the price, I changed my mind! Way too expensive, even for just 60 people!

When I was very young (probably under 4,I have no memory of this), my Grandmother bought me a three foot tall chocolate Easter rabbit. My parents gave it away. Wish I at least had a photo. I love chocolate. When I was younger and healthy (way before dialysis) I would buy one-Pound Chunky bars and eat them at one sitting. I used to eat a whole bag of M and M's also.
