photo mnms and other US candy bars I write a lot of website content and every now and then one of my colleagues starts something new online to which I am more than willing to contribute. Marco de Zeeuw builds super websites and has now started a web shop of his own selling US sweets, candy and cookies: sweetcorner.nl. My contribution: a little content and texts for online adds.

Oh, and I got to taste some of the good stuff, of course, because it is essential to know what you are writing about. Rest assured, it all tasted great. I got to know (and thoroughly appreciate) new M&M varieties and am now a big fan of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.
