And Christmas may be the sweetest time of year:
Not only can you buy many of the traditional candies, like Snickers, Reeses, Twix, and Hersey bars in fun holiday shapes (not a fat joke, Santa, sorry), but there are countless varieties available to stuff everyone’s stocking – and bellies.
With so many candy options out there, you may be wondering about your best choices for being a hit at the holiday party.
Luckily, candystore.com came up with a list of the top three Christmas candies for each state for you.
Drumroll, please – here in Texas, the big winner is:
Pez.
While that may seem odd at first glance, Pez is a staple stocking stuffer, and you can find dispensers in the recipients favorite character.
Many Pez dispensers are collectible, as well, making them a great gift with great value.
