The Candy Basket in Portland, OR

One of my very favorite places to go in Portland is the Candy Basket. It has a ceiling to floor chocolate fountain for visitors to look at. Shane loves the mess ups section. They have baskets full of bags of truffles for about half price because they don't look pretty enough to package. Shane like the dark chocolate truffles, but my ultimate favorite is the Seafoam. It is spun molasses covered in milk chocolate. It is sooo yummy!!! This most recent visit, I bought a pack of Red Velvet Cake Truffles. They were beautiful white chocolate coated truffles with red sprinkles on top, cream cheese ganache and red milk chocolate ganache on the inside. They were divine. I can't wait to get more.
