These V Chocolates Sea Salt Caramels (without nuts) were covered in (milk and dark) chocolate, and were topped with different kinds of salts -- making them a good choice for Day #7 of Chocolate and Salt Theme Week.
However, the main attraction was the substantial caramel filling. As recommended by the owner of The Candy Store, I had stowed these caramels in my freezer until I was ready to eat them. I liked the hard-toffee-like (frozen) texture more than the sugary gooeyness that usually exists with large pieces of caramel. (Note: eat frozen caramels carefully to avoid a possible trip to the dentist.)
In 2006, my daughter bet I couldn't eat a different chocolate each day for a year. I enjoyed that year so much that, after 17+ years, I'm still eating a different chocolate every day. Happily, even after 6,200+ chocolates, there are still many more to try. Thank you to all who continue to be part of this global adventure.
