Sweets Treats and a Giveaway!!

I remember getting Necco Wafers as a kid! We'd get a roll and everyone would share! Sometimes you got your favorite and sometimes not.  But it's one of those memories that bring up the happy moments from your childhood! Sometimes it's fun to try to conjure up those great memories by treating yourself!! But I wanted to go above and beyond the normal way of eating candy.  So I wanted to know....what else can ya do with  Necco Wafers?? I found the answer online!!  Here are a few fabulous recipes that you have to try!!

NECCO Wafer Gingerbread House 
Necco Smoothies
Fish Cake

Necco, which was founded in the summer of 1847, is the oldest multi-line candy company in the United States. Necco's brands include such timeless classics as the NECCO® Wafer, Sweethearts® Conversation Hearts, Mary Jane®, Clark® Mighty Malts®, Haviland® Thin Mints, and Candy House® Candy Buttons.
