Food & Drink / Candy Mix
English term or phrase: Golden Bridge Mix
Golden Bridge Mix is a Gourmet Candy Mix - it is a spin on an oldfashioned mix "bridge mix" called golden because it is not just chocolate (e. g. peanut butter)

I couldn't find a translation for "Bridge Mix" either.
I have only find "Friandises Bridge Mix" at www.bulkbarn.ca/fr-ca/products.html?product=150 or "Bridge Mixture" at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_mix for the brand Hershey's.

In both case, the English is kept, but I would like to make sure there isn't an actual translation as it for French Canada.

Thank you for your help!

Do not translate


Explanation:
In Québec, it's very common that English terms like this are not translaetd at all, because the country is immersed in the English language far more than France is.

In France, you might have needed to translate it, but in Québec I'm pretty sure it's alright to keep it in English. A lot of people from Québec tend to mix French and English into their every day life chatter and use both language in many cases.

Plus, I have a gruesome reference to back this up.
