If you are anything like me then your treat addiction began when you first received pocket money as a kid. Jingling those coins around in your hand figuring out how best to spend your money and what lollie you were going to choose at the corner deli. Decision making time was a long process and the deli attendant did not enjoy this. In their mind it’s 20c, come on, just choose a lolly bag. For me? I had to make the best choice. Which one had the most red frogs? Which one had the least chico rolls?
Unfortunately for the kid in me these decisions can no longer me made due to the fact that I would love to look like Miranda Kerr. So instead of red frogs I bring you lil raw raspberry chocolate loveliness.
