Treat Yourself!

What is it about candy corn? My addiction began while shooting these
treat buckets for my Etsy shop. First it was just eating the pieces that
fell out of the buckets as I was setting up the displays. Then it
progressed to eating the entire content of the bucket and next thing you
know I consumed half the bag before lunch... uugghh! Now suffering
from a major sugar buzz I am regretting every single little piece.
You'd think I'd know better by now. I put myself in this situation
every Halloween and vow to never buy candy corn again...
at least not until next year.

These treat cups are a throw back to when party supplies were so adorable! I love the black and white candy sticks too.

Love candy corn, and guess what I found lurking in my cupboard? A jar of them....yay! Sometimes I try to save holiday candy to use at Christmas for gingerbread houses. Have you ever made one before?

P.S. Your treat buckets are adorable!

Candy corn is worse than Lays potato chips. You certainly can't eat just one!

Love the cups-reminds me of my Mother getting ready for a ladies day. I think candy corn is one of those vices no one wants to admit to. Try mixing them with peanuts-tastes just like a payday. Debbie
