Candy Corn or Mellowcreme Pumpkins? And, win my book!

It's a simple question, really. Which do you prefer: Candy corn, or Mellowcreme Pumpkins?

Weigh in by commenting on this post or on my facebook page, and you could win a *signed* copy of my amazing book, CakeSpy Presents Sweet Treats for a Sugar-Filled Life. There's a recipe for homemade candy corn in the book, by the way. 

You don't have to leave a reason, but I would be interested in hearing it if you're so inclined.

This giveaway will be open for one week; I will close it for entries on Tuesday, October 23rd at 5pm EST. Due to high shipping rates overseas, I am only able to offer this giveaway to residents of US and Canada. If you leave a comment on this site, don't panic if it doesn't show up right away: comment moderation is enabled. Good luck!

Update: The winner! 

A winner has been chosen at random: Becky from Plainfield, IL! Becky says that for her it's Candy Corn all the way, and asks that I not judge her for eating it strangely: each color separately. It's not so bad Becky, it won you a book! :-)

Congratulations and til next time stay sweet!

I like candy corn because you can eat them color by color more easily. ;)

Pumpkins, pumpkins, PUMPKINS! They're just bigger, and more satisfying. .....

[Naureen]

I looooooove candy corn! I haven't had any in at least 3 years, and it's one of the things that I love about Halloween! Plus, it can be pretty versatile in a lot of halloween-themed recipe!

[Cookie]

Oh my! I love love love candy corn! I even bought candy corn Oreos!!

[T]

Oh, hard one, but I think I would say pumpkins!!!

[mary ann]

Candy corn.

[bethama]

Pumpkins. Candy corn is so small and thin, it tends to stale quicker. The pumpkins are consistently nice and soft.

[Katie]

I'd always choose chocolate over either option, but mellowcremes if I must choose! :o)

[Carolyn]

candy corn!...that way i can eat a few more and not feel as guilty as eating a 1 pumpkin :)

[Connie]

I prefer candy corn over the pumpkin candies.

[Martha T]

To me, they taste the same, but I prefer the chocolate candy corn. Not sure why, just do. :)

[susan]

have to go with candy corn. It was my mom's favorite candy and my daughter wa born on Oct. 30th which is national candy corn day!!!

[Anna Cast]

The pumpkins def! I think they are made of the same thing as the candy corn, but well, they are bigger and heavier, and I feel like I've EATEN something when I have one! And.. oh gosh they're adorable. :)

[Claire]

honestly i cant tell the difference. ;)

Mellowcreme pumpkins because they're prettier. On the other hand, candy corns make cute Turkey feathers...Trust your Sweet Treats for a Sugar-Filled Life is packed with both the beautiful and the adorable. Looking forward to obtaining a copy whether I win this lottery or somebody else does =)

[Stacy]

Candy Corn!!

[katie h.]

Candy corn because it always makes me think of my mother, which is a good thing! :)

[Liz]

If it's Indian candy corn (red, white and yellow) I would 100% pick that!

[Katie]

Pumpkins! Simply because my husband puts them on the grocery list without telling me.

[Inga]

Pumpkins - too cute!

[Julia@cookandburn.com]

I've always been more of a candy corn gal--just prefer the slightly denser texture, I suppose. I really cannot remember the last time that I had candy corn, though...that's a shame.

[Elizabeth G.]

Candy Corn!!! Definitely eat color by color & then a whole bunch at once. Mmm sugary goodness.

[Bee]

Candy corn! More for the nostalgia factor though since I associate candy corn with Halloween.

[LisaT]

pumpkins FTW!!! I think they have a better consistency. candy corn is just a wee bit too "crusty" for my taste.

[Cassy]

Candy corn! :)
