You did say stocked, right?
Cause if I had all those goodies you put in your candy bowl it would be empty in no time and you would have to scrape me off the ceiling from the sugar rush lol. I try to avoid sugar and usually that no problem but nov-dec I ate probably more candy than I have for the last 4 years

My favorite candy, not found locally, is Dark Chocolate filled jellies.
I grew up near Daffin's Candies
They have a Chocolate Kingdom...



They also sell Bulk candy by the pound

I don't have a candy bowl in use. I do buy licorice, laces or coins, occasionally black cats.
The rare occasions I eat chocolate it's a bit of dark chocolate, 70%.

LOL, I have a special drawer in my kitchen for packs of candy and goodies.
I have my stock of candy bars and chocolates in the crisper of the fridge till I put them in the bowl.

I also have a large mason jar for candy which is unwrapped like Swedish fish, M&Ms, jelly beans and such. When I buy movie boxes of candy I dump the leftovers in the mason jar and it gives me a nice assortment of flavors and textures.

I also have a sealed tub in which I dump my chips, popcorn, nuts and other crumblies when I have 'bag' leftovers. There's pieces of pretzels, small chunks of doritos, cheese doodles, pecans, pistachios, cashews and other pieces parts which I shake to mix up.

My grandkids love visiting poppa's house cause I gots lots 'o' goodies (w/permission from mum & dad first).

Mostly stuff left over from Christmas, my boss gave me a stocking full of miniature candies like milky ways, snickers, m&m's, kitkats, and mars bars. My roommate took over eating those and while I devoured the Lindt truffles I bought at Christmas time for the house, hihi.

Otherwise, I normally have both dark and milk chocolate in the candy basket. Milk chocolate for my roommate and dark chocolate for me. I usually get different varieties of miniature dove chocolates, and Reese's peanut butter cups.

For my own private stash, I have dark chocolate covered pomegranates and other dark chocolate covered dried fruits. Though they aren't really private, it's just I'm the only one that likes them, thankfully, so they're all mine, haha.

I haven't tried the orange ones yet, Tom. They seem like an odd combination, but I guess I shouldn't balk at them until I've at least tried them.

I've had frozen dark and milk chocolate covered raspberries, totally delicious and sinful, lol. So, I'm sure I'd like the other ones. It's gotta be real fruit though, or at least the naturally flavored kind. I don't like any of the artificially flavored fruits, even if they are covered in chocolate.

When I lived up north there was a grocery store where you could buy trail mix stuff by bulk and make your own mixes. They had bins of bulk nuts, dried fruits and candies.

I don't really have a sweet tooth, nor a candy bowl. If I did I would fill it with cashew nuts, pine nuts and potato chips.

If you watch BigLots they get a wide range of dried fruit and nuts you can pick up at a reduced price. We have a Mexican grocer here which offers bulk dried fruits, nuts and veggy's from South of the Border. I use much of what I buy there to make custom seasoning blends. I picked up a jar of Pink Himalayan Large Crystal sea salt from BigLots which works well for salty mixes. I add cereal mixes for the sweet.

Another thing I keep a small stock of is different slimjims and jerkeys.
I have a nice assortment of cheeses in my fridge too.

When the kids were little and we were having movie night, the X and I would make up a veggie tray with an easy dip and they gobbled it up. They would actually ask for a veggie dip tray. Now they do that for their kids.
