Sweet Treats for National Candy Month!

Believe it or not, June is National Candy Month, so it's perfectly acceptable to celebrate with some extra candy every now and again. We've always been huge fans of Twix, Reese's and Peppermint Patties, but there are so many other great candies out there it's often hard to decide.

Being National Candy Month and not just another random month we want candy, we've decided to kick up the recipes with some dramatic creations that showcase candy in all their sweet glory.

Pictured at the top are Candy Globes from MyRecipes.com. The recipe explains how to take your favorite candies and turn them into magical, edible globes. Nicely done!

We also love the Candy Cane Marshmallows from Martha Stewart, below. These beautiful marshmallow squares are great on their own or dipped in hot chocolate. Naturally, Martha explains how to package them beautifully to make the perfect edible gift.


Time to start cranking out the candy creations for Candy Month!
