GlossyBox... For Sweets!?

I've just had a run in with google. 

Greatly frustrated I have turned to this blog for a little moan about the lack of understanding between myself and the google search box. 

First Search: Is there a Confectionary version of Glossy Box? 
In hopes of being led to a yahoo answers page or something similar I innocently typed this question into the search engine... To no avail. To be honest I thought the search might prove FAILSOME but all the same I was mildly frustrated. Instead of answers I was given alternatives. I didn't want alternatives. I wanted the darn answer!

So I proceeded with: Confectionary Taster Box
I know. A long shot. This was even more vague than my first attempt but sometimes simple terms are the only way google comprehends. How wrong this combination of words turned out to be, luxury gift boxes of chocolate was 100% NOT what I was looking for. 

Finally: Confectionary Box
I typed this in pretty heavy handedly, thought slight annoyance. It turns out that 'angry typing' doesn't encourage the search AT ALL! This time I think googles little brain exploded, it chucked out links left right & centre. As long a there was 'BOX' or 'CONFECTIONARY' somewhere in the description google seemed to think we were onto a winner. We weren't.

No, I'm not mad at Google really. I'm mad at the stupid confectionary business for having not realised how awesome Glossybox (& other such brands) are and then not creating a lovely sweets based version. Imagine the 'international box' - a box I know recently featured with glossybox - with Candys & Chocolates from USA & most excitingly, Japan!? 



Let me know your ideas on this or more importantly if you know of a company then get them more google-fied & tell me about them. I'm itching to sign up!
