Out of your shell
Turtles to chew
Turtles may move slowly, but chocolate turtles have a
way of racing into your mouth. Pride's Crossing Confections offers an
especially delectable turtle with a creamy caramel heart made from corn syrup,
sugar, evaporated milk, cream, pure vanilla extract, and butter. Pecan, cashew,
macadamia, or almond clusters lurk inside the caramel, and the whole treat is
covered with milk or dark chocolate. A pound of turtles (about 10 to 12
candies) costs $14. Available at Pride's Crossing Confections (locations at 641
Hale Street, in Pride's Crossing, and 79 Bridge Street, in Beverly); the
Chocolate Truffle, in Boston; Chocolate Dream, in Belmont Center; and Hidden
Sweets, in Harvard Square. Call (800) 332-2185 for delivery information.
