Giveaway #9: $25 worth of King Leo Candy

King Leo sent me a variety of their yummy peppermint and fruity hard candies.  I know that candy is not the healthiest thing but I love peppermint so I thought that it would be a good review/giveaway.  I really like the chocolate mint candies and the soft peppermint candies the best. Also, they started selling crushed peppermint which can be used in different recipes.  I would use it in a milkshake or in brownies. Another thing about peppermint is that it is heard to help curb appetite so maybe it is healthy after all....haha

Now for the giveaway. King Leo is giving away $25 worth of candy to one lucky winner! Contest is open until Monday August 2nd at midnight and the winner will be chosen Tuesday August 3rd. 

YOU MUST LEAVE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS IN EACH COMMENT SO I KNOW HOW TO CONTACT THE WINNER.
Here is how to enter:

Mandatory: Tell me what you would use the crushed peppermint in (my examples were in brownies or a milkshake). Be creative!!

    I would use the crushed peppermint on cupcakes chocolate cake with white icing mixing in pepermint into each - then sprinkling more on top.... these would be more adult as kids in my experience do not like strong pepermint.... We have spaghetti night once a month at our church and I always bring cupcakes - the kids always get them before the adults so this would let the adults get some this time! I am not not sure if the one can come up to Canada - being food - if not egnore me :)

    I don't know if I could keep from eating the peppermint just plain!
    I have read that peppermint is great for Celiacs and for irritable bowels. I could use this on my long runs since I have had "issues" before.

    The crushed peppermint would be great in brownies (or coffee as the comment above mine says). I think it would also be good sprinkled on cupcakes (it would also look pretty!). Thanks!
