summer candy

Summer is here, and with it comes outings, picnics, and trips to the beach. You and your friends, family, and little ones are bound to get hungry on these adventurous days, but bringing snacks and sweet treats with you to the beach presents some interesting problems such as heat and sand.

Candy isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when pairing alcohol with food. And candy is not typically combined with fruit in a dessert. We generally select salty, savory, or acidic flavors to accompany alcoholic beverages. The same approach is used for composing a fruit tray. However, you’ll miss experiencing the subtle contrasts and balances candy brings to these pairings if you don’t include them. Candy is perfect when you want just a little something sweet to go with your after-dinner beverage or fruit selection.

We're in the final month of summer and the season is flying by! Each season, including summer, we see certain candies and treats that gain popularity and become some of our top sellers. This summer's list proves that you really can't go wrong with classic favorites when it comes to candy. Also, shoppers really seem to appreciate resealable packaging. With one month of summer left, you still have time to order these sweet treats for your store to capitalize on their popularity and increase your summer sales.
