October 30th is National Candy Corn Day!

October 30, 2008

I had no idea that there was a National Candy Corn Day until BigSis sent me a link about another candy corn inspired idea.  Who knew?

I never eat sweets and I really don't eat any sugar.  I don't crave anything sweet at all.  BUT, I LOVE CANDY CORN. Nothing but sugar, honey, and corn syrup!  It must be something from my childhood.

I'm going to be on a major sugar rush!!

It's almost too cute to eat!

Tomorrow is Halloween and I haven't even bought my first bag of candy corn yet.  I resisted when at the store last week. I knew if I bought it too early, there wouldn't be any left for Halloween.  Today, I'm heading out to buy a few bags; one to eat and one to make this candle display I talked about earlier this week.

My very favorite type of candy corn is the Brachs Autumn Mix that has the regular candy corn, Indian corn (with the chocolate bottom), and the little pumpkins all mixed together in one bag.  I love the post on Candy Blog about this yummy candy! Apparently, this is hard to find this year. I'm on a mission to find me a bag!

I'm going to have to add this Candy Corn Bark from The Recipe Girl to my list of things to make for my “get together” tomorrow night.  It looks like something the kids would enjoy!

YUMMY!

YUMMY!

Candy Corn and Oreos! I'll be binging off the walls if I eat it, but it just might be worth it! Thanks to Baking Bites for sharing the link to this recipe.

These cute little candy corn sugar cookies from Cookie Madness look really good, too!

Lovely Bite Size Little Cookies!

    Hey there,

    Thanks for the visit, and the shout out on the Cookie Bark! Did you see the Candy Corn Cookies that I did too? They’re a few posts back. Sure has been fun to do Halloween goodies this year. I was going to mention that Candy Corn blog but I see that you have already discovered it!

    Hi RecipeGirl,
    I’m really excited to make the candy corn cookie bark tomorrow. I would have made it tonight but I need to make a trip to Michaels for the white chocolate wafers. I wish I had seen the cookies and I would have included in my post.
    Thanks for peeking at our blog.

    I am SO making that cookie bark! For Christmas, I’m thinking of using the holiday oreos and M&Ms, plus the pretzels and maybe some pecans or walnuts?
