It's all about the experience here: from costumed shopkeepers to old-school machines and a hidden hot chocolate shop at the back, this place is hands-down my fave candy shop in the world.

This is the kind of candy shop that dreams are made of. From the deco to the attire of the staff, the store transports you back in time to where we can all just think about gum drops + chocolate bars.

This Confectionery was so old school, from candy selection to the atmosphere. The employees when wore clothes from the time period. Very cool, worth seeing if you’re close by.

This is the place where your creams come to life. I seriously love coming here in every season- winter for hot chocolate flights and summer for ice cream bars. So amazing

Love their dark chocolate. Their peanut buttercups are some on the best I have ever had and I have eaten a lot of them. Dark chocolate covered pretzels with sea salt are also amazing!

This sweet shop was restored in 2011 to its original aesthetic, with brass scales, glass jars and traditional candies. It looks, smells and sounds like a Victorian-era candy shop. http://ph.ly/LxzSC

The oldest continuously operated candy shop in America. Kudos to the Berley brothers for breathing new life into it. The dark chocolate is excellent.
