Did not like the experience at all. Seriously overpriced: 0.68 lbs chocolate/pecan slice for 24 dollars. Far too sweet too. Waste of my money...

They are the only place that also carry my favorite Cherry Candied Apples! All the other places around only have caramel or cinnamon candied apples. I recommend their salt water taffy of course, also their ice cream, well all the candy that they make there hasn't disappointed me yet YUM!!!🍭🍬🍫🍦🍡💜
