Yes, Reece's peanut butter cups-- they are good too. Russell Stovers makes really good sugar free candy too.
I will assume, since you are Atkins, you know about the sugar alcohols--but just in case.... The packaging on the sugar free candy will list carbs (usually a lot of them)--then it will list sugar alcohol or miatol (sp?) --this negates the carbs!!! So the candy is virtually carb free!!

Good luck on Atkins-- I did it for 3 weeks earlier this summer and lost 15lbs. It is a great diet if you can get over those first few days of cravings.
