Holiday Gift Guide 2006Here’s the last of the Gift Guides for 2006! Have a look at last years, this is just a supplement to that ... there are lots of great ideas out there in addition to giving folks actual candy, so keep an eye out for these candy-themed gifts. Candy Desk
Fred Flare is always guaranteed to have something cute. This year they’re featuring an innovating little desktop item called the Chocolate Bar Pen Holder ($14) – it looks like a real chocolate bar! After the holidays you might want to do more than send your notes, you might want to scent them too. Try these Scratch & Sniff cards for $8 a pair. Candy Games and Amusements
Bring the arcade experience into your home and burn some calories by frustrating yourself with the Candy Grabber for $35 (not including candy). Holiday Candy Kaleidescope ($13) and the Regular Version ($11.95) Jelly Belly 24 piece jigsaw puzzle ($4.95) a great stocking stuffer that will be around long after the candy is gone. Chocolate-Opoly - $24.95 For some more interactive game fun, try the Candy Volcano for $21.99 Stocking Stuffers & Entertaining Candy Shot Glasses ($4.95 for 6) - I have no idea if they make a sticky mess or if it’d be totally cool to smash them when you’re done. M&Ms solo teapot in three different colors. Good for tea, or maybe even hot chocolate! ($23) For some bizarre reason you cannot have this shipped to California, so if you live there, try the M&Ms calculators for $10 Themed Candies - Gummi Tools ($6.95), Gummi Motivational Bracelets - I really want to order those ($2.95 a dozen), Snowman Bubble Gum Coins ($2.99)
If that’s too casual for you, demonstrate your professionalism with a Sugar Daddy Business Card Holder for $29.00. If you make the $40 minimum purchase, they’ll throw in a Tootsie Roll Car Air Freshener. There are loads of stocking stuffer ideas there at Tootsie. Other Hershey Baseballs - they’re real baseballs, not chocolate. At least they won’t melt on the field.
Hershey: Milton S. Hershey’s Extraordinary Life of Wealth, Empire, and Utopian Dreams by Michael D’Antonio. Jewelry & Adornment
Tootsie also has a pretty cute charm bracelet set for $6 for the starter bracelet and a whoppin’ $20 for each additional charm. Okay, I have to admit I would probably wear one that featured all the Tootsie Pop colors. Drinkable
Candy University Mugs ($18.00) Max Brenner’s Hug Mug made just for hot chocolate with a special shape to cup between your hands. Apparel
Baby Chuck Taylor hi tops in peppermint stripes. $24.99 The strangest entry in the brand tie in merchandise has to be these cute Cow boots from Goetze’s Caramel Creams (makers of Bull’s Eyes and Cow Tales). At only $19.95 I’m kind of wishing it rained more where I live.
Jelly Belly Embroidered Tee $22.99 is one of the more inventive garments on their site. They also have some luscious looking hoodies, ringer tees and caps. But the thing you really need to click through and see are the pro-styled bib bicycle shorts. Inventive Individuals on Café Press & Zazzle:
Gummi Bear Mob - yes, this gummi bear has a posse.

They also have hats and an umbrella ... and if you live in an area where it’s hard to find Goetze’s, you can order right there for more than enough to stuff your stocking.
