What candy do you buy in Epcot Countries?

[LimeGreenEd]

The Cola candy and Wasabi peas from Japan

 

[tink22]

When my husband was in Norway (the real one) he brought back milk choc with hazelnuts. We fell in love,.....then we found them at Norway WDW. The milk choc bars are in the bright yellow package, and the hazelnut milk choc is in the light blue.....dont ask me their names - cant pronounce it. But easy to find, and we buy about 12 bars to last the yr. Best Milk Choc I have ever had.

Mmmm... I love melkesjokolade and firkløver (the one with the nuts). I lived in Norway for 10 months so I was able to eat that yummy chocolate all the time. At least I can still find some of my favorites at Epcot.

do they really have a candy store in each country? are they hard to find?

Each country sells candy in their shops. We buy candy from Japan- my boys are big anime fans- and look for candy that has no english writing on the package. We still have hard candies rom last year! We have also gotten the Cola candies- not my boy's favorites.

From our December trip we bought chocolates from each country in WS(except for Mexico-all we found there was a 'goat milk candy' and Morocco) A few weeks after our return... when the Disney Blues set in... we had a tasting party! (Got the idea from the DISboards of course!) We had the kids taste and give or down... funny to see their reactions to some! Here is what we bought

From Japananky Chocolate- DD & I loved this one
From France: Maxim's De Paris- many different flavored chocolates
From Canada- Smarties: like M&Ms only better
From Italy: Baci Perugina- Dark chocolate w/hazelnuts- my favorite!
From China: the jar on the right- it was like candy coated chocolate rocks- strange aftertaste for me.
Oh, and from the good 'ole US of A... a Mickey Chocolate bar- we're saving that one
Also from Canada:Aero- pretty good
From Norway:Troika- has a raspberry jelly/gel kind of filling. Only DS liked this one.
From the UK- Cadbury Flake- DD fell in love with this one!
From Germany- 3 varieties at the bottom of my pic- all good! The star shaped ones were 'fudge' filled, the round & heart ones had hazelnuts, I think & the one in the black wrapper was dark... like 70%... but if you like dark chocolate you'll love it!

We used to sell these French candies called Bon Bons as a fundraiser for my French Club in high school

Anyone know if they sell them in France? We're going to Disney next month and I'd love to pick some up if they have them.

We have a good variety of imported candies available here because our stores have world markets with imported foods, and we also have a decent import place near Boston so I imagine I can get a lot of the things mentioned in this thread at home..but I'll still try a few things at Epcot. I am especially interested in the UK Kit Kat bar since I love the American Kit Kat bars.

I am so jealous - my DH is military and got to spend 2 months over there training their military. We soo want to go there to live for a few yrs after his military career.

It's not a candy bar but I bought some Jammy Dodger cookies in the tea shop in England and those were very good. Shortbread cookies with a raspberry jam filling. I bought a Cadbury bar there too, it had hazelnuts inside, very good but I can get those at the grocery store here.

Tia- Do you mind if I use your list for my upcoming trip? I was trying to sort through the thread myself to put together a list, but you've done a great job!

 

[wdwllamadancer]

My faves are the aero bars from england! they are AMAZING!

 

[thejackattack21]

Fruit Pastilles in the UK! I want to move to England just for these. The wine gums are good too if the pastilles are to sweet for you.

OMG!!!! The wine gums are GREAT! The very first thing I do when I get to the World Showcase is go to England for Wine Gums. They're ADDICTIVE; like fruit pastilles, but with more of a bite to them.

Now I really, really want some... I wonder if the English store a few blocks away has them...

Of course! I hope that anyone who wants to use this compiled list would feel free to take it, use it, add to it, and/or modify it.

CHOCOLATE KOALA COOKIES FROM JAPAN! So amazing!!!

I used to be able to get them near my college campus at this weird and very creepy Asian grocery type of place but then I went in there once and the girl was sitting behind the counter with the phone looking very surprised that anyone would be in the store and there was literally NOTHING on any of the shelves except for some old cartons of milk in the freezer. And it suddenly became very clear that it was a front for something else!!!!!

Luckily I can still get them in Japan at Epcot!

 

[DenverDave]

I'm too hungry ..... maybe later.

 

[Lynn5700]

Pocky. And flower candy, if they have it. Both would be found in Japan.

Also? Cadbury chocolate and REAL SMARTIES in England. You haven't lived until you've had real Cadbury chocolate. It's amazing. Smarties > M&Ms, too.

I love Smarties!!!!!! Are they different from the American brand?
