I can't help but connect this afternoon's discovery with the following "sugary" quote:
"Candy is nature's way of making up for Mondays". (Author Unknown)

Maximizing what's left of the long (and rainy!) weekend, the Hubby and I found ourselves in front of this attractive candy store at the 3rd floor of SM North EDSA The Block. The moment we set our eyes on the store, we suddenly felt like we were Hansel and Gretel (except, of course, that we did not become siblings LOL!) who were inevitably enticed by ""confectionery house" so-called Twisted Candy.
What really caught our attention were the candy chefs kneading, pulling and twisting what seemed to be soft
and plump candy dough with some design at the center.
Out
of the plump dough, thin strips were
produced, each one bearing the same design as the “mother dough”. ^^ The
kneading continued until the strips hardened and then cut into bite-sized
portions to officially look like rock
candies :D

It was truly an amazing sight but having come from a buffet,
we did not really intend to buy some candies. However, we graciously accepted the samples handed to us. As I dropped a piece into my mouth, I immediately noticed the intense sweet and sour taste
which I totally enjoyed. The Hubby enjoyed the taste even more that he asked me to pick a pack for us to purchase.:D
I opted for watermelon candies!^^
The Hubby "forcefully" took a photo of me holding my first ever Twisted
Candy purchase. I also took his photo with the watermelon candies while
he wasn’t looking hahaha.
Anyway, before leaving Twisted Candy, I took more shots of pouches and jars filled with nothing but C-A-N-D-I-E-S!^^

Back home, as I compose this post, the Hubby and I are
happily munching on the candies and guess what, I am just not sure if it's just
a psychological thing but it seems that the candies are slowly making it easier
for us to finally accept that the long weekend's over and that Monday is just a
few hours away hahaha :D
Over-all, I am pleased with Twisted Candy except that I don't think I would be purchasing candies from the store often primarily because of the price. But then...I would surely buy again because of the taste.:D
