Welcome Treats
Out-of-towners who receive welcome baskets should have a little taste of the state. We like to toss in sweet and salty snacks, and particularly love the can’t-miss, individual-sized bags of kettle-cooked chips or white cheddar popcorn from Cape Cod Potato Chips, based in Hyannis. As for the "something sweet," Boston-based Phillip’s Candy House has fabulous chocolate turtles, and you can’t go wrong with the superobvious, oversized Boston Cookies, based in Somerville. Cape Cod chips or popcorn, $24 for 12 5.5-ounce bags, capecodchips.com. Phillip’s turtles, $21.50 per pound, phillipschocolate.com. Boston Cookies, $1.60 each, bostoncookies.com.
