Candy and Chocolate Keep You Warm When It’s Cold Outside

Who likes being cold? Certainly not us! When the temperatures drop outside, we are always looking for ways to keep as warm as possible. We do all the usual stuff such as wearing hats and coats, cranking up the heating and so on. However, all that is pretty boring, so we decided to find a fun way to keep warm. Food is energy, right? So, when it’s cold outside, we love to stock up on candy and chocolate from all over the world and get munching!

If you love our idea (and let’s face it, who wouldn’t?) then we have loads of lollies and sweet treats from all over the world that can be sent direct to your door in next to no time at all! There is truly nothing as decadent as enjoying some candies and chocolate as a treat. It’s almost as though we are transported back to being a child again. There’s something that’s a little naughty about enjoying something that we know can’t be too good for us in large quantities!

Here, at Joy’s De’Lights we firmly believe in saying NO to regular snacks. This is why we have scoured the planet for exciting, unique, delicious and fun treats for you to enjoy all throughout the winter and the summer months! We stock everything from good old Aussie candy to American candy, popping candy and Jolly Rancher candy. There is truly something for everyone here in our online store.

Sugar Gives You Energy!

Consuming sugar gives your brain a huge surge of dopamine that makes you feel good. So, eating some sweet treats from time to time is an excellent way of getting a quick burst of energy when you need it. You can keep your energy levels up by eating a tasty sandwich with Marshmallow Fluff and peanut butter. Or, you could order some Egg Sandwich Pringles if you’re feeling adventurous! Oh, and we have all the old favourites ready for you to buy such as M&Ms and Jolly Ranchers.

The Story of Jolly Rancher Candy

Bill and Dorothy Harmsen founded the candies way back in 1949. They named their company ‘Jolly Rancher’ because it had a Western hospitable sound to it. Originally the company specialised in hard candies, chocolate and ice cream with their biggest focus being on the ice cream side. Bill and Dorothy sold their ice cream through a chain store named ‘Ranch Made Ice Cream’ that was based in Denver, Colorado. The couple soon found that their ice cream sales fell away in the winter months, so they decided that the needed to promote something more sustainable. They then decided to focus their business on hard candies. Thank goodness that they did because we love Jolly Rancher candy!!

Fast forward to 1996 and the Hershey’s company then acquired Jolly Rancher Candy. To this day, the brand has grown hugely with so many types and varieties of Jolly Ranchers available to buy. Jolly Rancher candies are truly irresistible. There are lots to try like Jolly Rancher Chews, Jolly Rancher Bites and you can even try Jolly Rancher lollipops! If you’ve never sampled them before, the Chews have all the flavour of the original hard candies but they’re soft and chewy! Another firm favourite with so many of our customers are the Jolly Rancher Sour Surge candies. These are hard on the outside with a sour and powdery centre – so amazing!
