Description:

This swap is similar to the food swap I hosted a few weeks ago but for candies only!

Each participant will list 10 words that relate to the sorts of candy they like in the comment section below. Examples are: fruity, chilli, chocolate, festive etc etc. It all depends on your personal tastes.

When partners are assigned you will check the words your partner has listed and choose five words. Send one candy for each of the five words making five diffent kind of candies. You may send more if you'd like to. Be creative but make sure to stick to the words your partner has selected. Please add a note and tell your partner which words you chose.

Candies should be fullsize and if you decide to send chocolate please put it in an extra ziplock bag. This way the other candy won't get sticky if the chocolate starts to melt. If you prefer to not receive chocolate due to the warm weather please say so in the comment section.

Edited: To make sure everyone will get a decent sized candy package I'm adding a minium spent of 6 USD/ 5 Euros.

If your partner is from the same country it would be great if you could find items from other culture stores, specialty stores or delis, things like that would offer a bit of variety. This is not required of course. Please also list if you have any allergies or dislikes.

You must have listed your words before sign up ends otherwise I'm afraid I have to exclude you from this swap. Also I will check participants for risks before assigning partners and will remove people accordingly.

If you have any questions feel free to ask, otherwise have fun!
