Editor's Note: Introducing Meet Me Mondays - Candy Version! I am Britta Malsch, the Purchasing Manager at Anderson's Candy Shop. I also help the Andersons with social media duties. As I enter my 10th year at the store, another one of my goals has been to help introduce each of our delicious candies to our wonderful customers, while also providing a tool for the general public to be able to identify our candy. I hope you enjoy this series which will highlight all the Anderson's Candy that you love!
Ninth in our series is Lemon Cream.
Fresh. Sweet. Just tart enough. A showstopper in our books!
Our lemon cream is made and flavored much like the other fruit creams in our line. Starting from a blank slate so to speak of sweet but unflavored cream center and then brought to life by our head cook and his assistants. Getting the flavor just right is an art form.
We use pure lemon oil in our Lemon Cream centers spading each small batch by hand and tasting along the way. A few drops can take the center from a hint of lemon to make-your-mouth pucker quickly! Our goal is to add enough oil so that when covered in chocolate the cream is unmistakably lemon. A sweet citrus that fills your mouth roundly with flavor and blends perfectly complimenting the chocolate.
When looking for Lemon Cream in a box of Anderson's Candy, you will look for an oblong piece (remember all cream centers are either round or oblong).
Look for the piece marked with a cursive “L” on top. And if you've been following along with us you know each L will look different depending on the chocolate handwriting of person who dipped it!
We do not make a larger candy bar counterpart for our Lemon Cream pieces, but if it is one of your favorites you can always order a 1/4#, 1/2# or 1# box of these delicious pieces by calling us at the shop 1-888-214-7614 or using our Make A Special Request feature online.
Fun Fact: Lemon Cream is also GLUTEN FREE!
