"BoxOfChocolates" news and stories

I know I disrespected Whitman's Samplers in favor of See's Candies. But I received an assortment, and guess what? I'm devouring those chocolates right now and I couldn't be more thrilled to engage in the ancient practice of guessing what's inside each morsel, so I can eat only my favorites. (It's only fair: I'm the true chocoholic in the family. My kids are too young to quibble and my husband's happy as long as he has a nice bottle of wine.)

My favorite fillings, in order of how devious I'll be to make sure I get them:

• Toffee, especially the variety with big chunks of almonds and pecans;
• Coconut cream, a la Mounds bar;
• Caramel, most delicious when it's coated in creamy milk chocolate; and
• Nutty nougat
