Cushman HoneyBells by Evan Orensten
Don't get these HoneyBells confused with HoneyBell Tangelos. Though they look like an orange they are a rare and natural hybrid of Dancy Tangerine and Duncan Grapefruit. They are only grown in Florida, and are available only for a few weeks in January/February. They are incredibly juicy and full of flavor. We got our shipment last week at CHHQ and have been dripping on our clothes since.
The Cushman family has been growing these (and other citrus) for more than 60 years. HoneyBells come in a range of packages and sizes, and can be ordered alone or mixed with other citrus from Cushman's. Prices start at $25 for 24 pieces.
The Hale family also grows HoneyBells, which we imagine are also tasty.

Glee's Make Your Own Chewing Gum Kits
Before all of the chemicals and artificial compounds used in most chewing gum today, gum was made from the sap of the Sapodilla tree, which grows abundantly in South American rainforests (and other locations). The sap is called chicle, and the men who climb the trees to collect the sap are called chicleros. No doubt you recognize a brand or two that utilize these...

Trois Crepes Dark Chocolate Perles
Pearl-shaped and tiny, the Manhattan patisserie Trois Crepes' Dark Chocolate Pearls contain something like a buttery Rice Krispy in a coverture of bittersweet chocolate. A pleasing crunch and slight saltiness makes for a surprising experience, but the chocolate balances both the flavor and texture. The Perles are delicious sprinkled on ice cream or yogurt, but we also like pouring them directly into our mouth....

Eight Salty, Sweet, Mouth-Puckering Licorices
by Karen McGrane Licorice seemed wrong and bad to me as a child, one of those things like coffee ice cream or kissing in movies that made me deeply suspicious of adult desires. As my tastes have matured so has my preference for licorice and I seek out only the darkest, chewiest, and most complex flavors. Used as a sweetener and a medicinal since ancient...

Alice Chocolate
From the matchbox-like packaging to the slender bars of dark chocolate contained within, Alice Chocolate is an exquisite treat through and through. The brainchild of brand consultants Michael Felber and Steven Mark Klein, the pair are working to restore the tradition of Swiss chocolate by making their chocolate at a factory in Bern, Switzerland that has been around since 1919. Sourcing the chocolate (fairly...
