Trifle's Road Candy a Hit

Whether you're buying a gift or just need a chocolate fix,  has all you need.

Located in two locations in White Lake, the M-59 storefront carries an array of cakes, candies and chocolates along with books and other gift items. When shopping one day last week for chocolate, I had to pleasure of running into owner Gwendolyn Borders. She suggested I give her Road Candy a try for my weekly column.

The candy is an original creation of Borders' and is a mix of chocolate-covered fruits, nuts and caramels.

I decided to give the Construction Blues and Michigan Road flavors a try and they did not disappoint.

Construction Blues is a white chocolate confection filled with pecans, caramel, Michigan blueberries and a distinctive butterscotch flavor.

Michigan Road is a semi-sweet chocolate confection filled with Michigan dried cherries, pretzels, peanuts, cookie pieces and caramel.

Next time you're in the area, stop in, say hello to Borders and try one of Trifles' delicious, local offerings.

The M-59 storefront is located at 10735 Highland Road. This location is open Monday - Saturday, 10 a.m. - 7 p.m.; and Sunday, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.
