The Egg Shape Works!

I’ve always been intrigued by the Easter Egg. I don’t really understand how it’s come about, even though I’ve done some research on the subject. Having said that, I feel like the egg is a really good way to deliver filled chocolates. I’m not as big a fan of just hollow chocolate eggs, but as a means to deliver filling, I feel like chocolate eggs are very good. Because of the oblong shape each bite is a little different from the next. On the narrower end of an egg you get more chocolate to filling, but around the center it’s mostly filling and less chocolate. It allows for an interesting balancing act between chocolate and filling. I also feel like the egg is a comfortable shape to hold. This is more so when you’re talking about larger filled egg treats. While I’ll never understand the origins of chocolate eggs, I’m always going to enjoy eating them.

Rocky Mountain Chocolate at Square One Shopping Center – A Canadian Institution is Here for You

We have yet another great sweet store to check out. For the next little while, we’re going to look at sweet places that can still bring a smile to your face. Today we’re looking at a branch from one of the great sweet treat chains in Canada.

I will say that no trip back home for me is complete, without a stop at a Rocky Mountain Chocolate shop.

There are a few locations of this great chain all over Canada, but today we’re going to look at the fine folks running the location at the Square One Shopping Center in Mississauga, Ontario. This particular location is run by Bonnie and Roman a husband and wife team making some classic Canadian treats.

Unfortunately, the mall itself is closed due to health concerns, however Bonnie and Roman don’t want you to miss out on a great Easter this year. They’re still offering some of the Easter treats available from Rocky Mountain Chocolate and deliver it right too you. Just send them an email (squareone@rockychoc.com), and let them know that you want your Easter fix. They’ll deliver your treats to anywhere in or around Mississauga, and you’ll be able to munch on some seriously fun sweets this Easter.

 (ED – This is not a paid advertisement, we here at Candy Critic want to help the local candy shops in this very difficult time. If you’re feeling down, and you need a little sweet treat, make sure to visit the website of your local candy shop, and consider placing an order, many are still open for curbside pick up or delivery. If you run a small sweet, snack or dessert shop, let us know, we’ll be happy to feature you on this blog and on our social media to let people know you’re still open for business.)
