Here’s a seasonal update on See’s Candies, available in its shops in the U.S. as well as online. For more on See’s Candies, check out my year of tasting See’s on Sugar Savvy here.

First, it’s summertime and See’s Candies wants you to enjoy your chocolates just the way its factories in California made them even if you are having a heat wave. That’s why chocolate candy ordered from the company’s website or catalog will have special packaging through October. The company packs chocolate candies with ice packs in an insulated foam box inside its shipping boxes and uses expedited service. The service costs a bit extra, but See’s won’t ship chocolates without the packaging from Spring through Fall.

Next, See’s often customizes its offerings for holidays and seasons. Right now the website is featuring plenty of red, white and blue to celebrate the Fourth of July. For some sweet ways to celebrate your independence, how about some of See’s milk chocolate balls wrapped in patriotic stars and stripes; a bag of sour star-shaped chews in red (sour cherry), white (sour lemon) and blue (sour berry); boxes of assorted chocolates inside colorful Fourth of July sleeves; or maybe specially decorated red, white and blue cherry flavored candy canes.

Now is also the only time of year to order See’s Summer Variety Box with white chocolate covered truffles in fruit flavors such as lime and apple pie, cashew brittle and other warm weather favorites.

One of See’s new offerings can’t be eaten but still might sweeten any See’s gift you might send. See’s is now offering personalized greeting cards that can be added on to any offering at checkout. Add a special thought or even your own photo to one of See’s greeting cards for an extra $2.95.
