Before the invention of candy, mankind had to make do with "nature's candy"—fermented cabbage, fruit the monkeys didn't want, and live, feather-covered Peeps. Celebrate man's triumph over nature and pay homage to Mother’s Day and a whole lot more with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of candy and chocolate from Fannie May. This Groupon is valid in-store only, at four St. Louis-area locations: Chesterfied, Des Peres, Ladue, and in St. Louis at the West County Center.

With more than 85 years of candy concocting experience, Fannie May is an established source of delectable tidbits amongst children, mothers, and picnic-basket-stealing bears. Whipping up premium-quality sweets wrapped in eye-catching packaging and kryptonite-resistant capes, Fannie May has always provided an excellent product. Even when ingredients were scarce during WWII and Godzilla attacks, Fannie May continued to produce quality treats without altering recipes. Sweet-tooth-toting patrons can swing by for a box of sugary goodness such as a 1 lb. colonial assortment ($23) of milk and dark chocolates, toffees, buttercreams, and nut clusters, or a 1 lb. box of Pixies ($23), Fannie’s take on the turtle, made with caramel and crunchy pecans. Additionally, a petite spring gift box ($8) or a box of fruit buttons ($16) is a thoughtful way to tell Mom or the maintenance man “I love you” and “Thanks for washing my underwear” In one sweet swoop.

No longer confined to fragile bay-leaf wrappers and the grubby hands of mustache-twirling street-market salesmen, fetchingly packaged chocolates are a wise option for gift giving and fastening envelopes with your family seal. Fannie May offers a wide range of delectable treats that will satisfy the most intense of sugary cravings.

• It may be true that life is like a box of chocolates because you never know what you're going to get but Fannie May Candies has taken at least part of the mystery out of that -- no matter which piece you choose, you're going to get something delicious. – AnnaBanana
