Maltesers Candy

It was just a dash into a corner store to get a snack as one will do when on a trip. The bright red package caught my eye and I’d long been a fan of malted milk balls at home in the States. It only took one taste of Maltesers, however, for me to develop an addiction.

As I’ve often found, the level of product quality is far superior in the U.K., even in the candy aisle. I had never had a malt ball that wasn’t covered in a waxy, cheap chocolate. This was creamy and delicious.

Needless to say that while at the duty free on my way home I noticed a huge bin of Maltesers. I filled the remaining space in my knapsack with them. A few months later I was online placing my order with an overseas importer and begging friends and family on trips to London and Ireland to please, please get me more, like some depraved crack addict.

Fast forward to many months later when I wandered into a corner store here in my own, little corner or Boston and found my little, red-pack treasures. No more importing needed! Now I’ve noticed that they are found in the international aisle of just about every grocery store here, making me one, happy, candy-eating, Maltesers-munching Anglophile.
