The peoples’ bon bon

We’re always on the hunt for the perfect “I’m at work and I just need something to munch on” treat that fits the bill but won’t change the fit of our clothes. After searching far and wide, extensive real-world testing (thank you International Department) and lots of chewing we have found our answer: the English Bon Bon! No, not Peggy Bundy’s bon bons – these little beauties come from England and are, at first, slightly hard but they warm up quickly and become a chewy and flavourful delight.

The flavours can’t be beat and we try to keep them all in stock, but demand can often clean us out! Strawberry, lemon, green apple and blue raspberry are the fruit-based bon bons while English Toffee (chewy caramel rolled in icing sugar!) rounds out the collection. So why are they the perfect desktop snack? Well with their chewy consistency you can’t handle more than one at a time and they take a few moments to eat, so you’re never eating them by the handful (not that we ever eat by the handful…*blush*). Essentially they have moderation built right in and that’s good for when you’re sitting at work willing the clock forward! Just don’t tell your coworkers about them…they might not make it through the day.
