Carnation White Chocolate Hot Chocolate
I really like this mix. It’s a powder you can buy at the grocery store with all the other hot chocolate mixes, but it’s white chocolate instead. Yum.

After being satisfied with Real Leaf’s Apple flavor, I became curious about their other varieties. This brand has only three flavors yet—-apple, lemon and lychee. They are limited compared to C2.

Kellogg’s Pop-Tarts - Frosted Raspberry
