I went to Paris on a vacation in 1997 and went into a bulk candy store- the equivelant of a sweet factory here i suppose- and they had a ton of flavors. I'm so glad I found a place to order them now. I would have made the trip to france just for this candy. i sooooo love the strawberry ones!Katenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15838830.post-74029971006543322692008-06-26T10:36:00.000-07:002008-06-26T10:36:00.000-07:00i have never seen these, i will have to look harder!lizzhttp://www.iwasreallyhungry.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15838830.post-20479260182938237802008-06-06T16:02:00.000-07:002008-06-06T16:02:00.000-07:00The article mentions they are available in target? is that true?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15838830.post-4776286096791874172008-05-30T20:25:00.000-07:002008-05-30T20:25:00.000-07:00I work at Walgreens...unless there is a store manager somewhere that is special ordering these, Walgreens doesn't sell them.

They're indescribably delicious and I almost fell off my chair just now finding out I can maybe get them without stalking high school students.yenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08103523565949105160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15838830.post-83640284604304037642008-02-18T10:30:00.000-08:002008-02-18T10:30:00.000-08:00EIFFEL bonbons have been available for over 20 years through The Foreign Candy Company's Fundraising division where they have been highly successful. In that division, the count goods sized packages are available in five flavors. See www.foreign-candy.com for more information on fundraising opportunities. In 2007, the strawberry and apple flavors were made available to wholesale retail in both count goods size and larger bonbons in peg bags. This candy is manufactured in France and similar candies have been popular in Europe for many years, but The Foreign Candy Company, Inc.(based in Iowa) developed the artwork, brand name and package design 20 years ago and are the exclusive marketer/distributor of this type of candy and this brand in the United States. See www.foreigncandy.com for information on their wholesale division.

(Seems like it'd be the perfect angle for the retail rollout.)<BR/><BR/>I'll hold off on trying them out. I'm heading the the Candy Expo again in a couple of months so I should be able to get a few samples and not have to dip into your stash!Cybelehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04493613501665113047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15838830.post-79478414612833560122008-02-04T18:03:00.000-08:002008-02-04T18:03:00.000-08:00Nope, wrong. They've been available in the states for years through the fund raising efforts of French Club students. I had forgotten all about them until someone reminded me, so I had to go and snag some off of eBay from a French teacher here in the US. Apparently they have exapnded the lineup to Strawberry, Apple, Blue Raspberry, Watermelon, and Cherry. Cybele, if you'd like I can send you a sampler of the flavors since I had to order a TON just to get my fix... I'd love to see a review up on CandyBlog because they are strangely addictive despite the massive amount of sugar in them.Laurenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02791521102221142577noreply@blogger.com
