Say It With Sponge Candy
At this time of year, Gary and Sandy Whitt of Ko-Ed Candies are making some of Buffalo’s favorite chocolates virtually around the clock. They've pretty much got it down to a science after 21 years. They're readying the store for Valentines Day, a day that will ring in as their 4th busiest day of the year. Their website (www.spongecandy.com) adds to the mix.
Ko-Ed offers little chocolate hearts and big ones, too. Red valentine-shaped boxes loaded with chocolate goodness come sized to suit- will you need a 4 oz. token or a 5 lb. offering? Maybe you’d prefer a pound of Charlie Chaplins, wrapped prettily in red, white and pink?
But what Ko-Ed does best is sponge candy. Buffalonians love the stuff. A sheath of thick, rich chocolate (milk or dark) encases a crisp, airy, molasses-flavored center. Describing this confection to the uninitiated is a task indeed. Perhaps it would be best to show them how much you love them (and sponge candy)…
