Retro Christmas candy medly brings smiles to those happy faces...

For me anyway, candy is one of those triggers that totally brings back cherished memories from childhood. It's like that bota bag of hot spiced cider which reminds me of tubing at the local sledding hill, or hot chocolate that conjures up memories of ice skating at the local public rink.

I love those old-fashioned traditional red & white peppermint candy canes that remind me of decorating our family Christmas tree. Christmas is one of the biggest holidays of the year for candy and over the years we all have some favorites that we love.

A retro candy Gift Basket may just be the perfect present or thing to bring nearly any holiday celebration because it features hand selected pieces of delicious nostalgic Christmas candy specially chosen to bring back a flood of memories of days gone by. A real blast from the past!
