    Super cute place with nice selection. Eyes were definitely overwhelmed by the options. Chocolate covered Swedish fish, rum balls, marzipan logs. My oh my. Would def go back if in the area again. So many cute original confectionary creations.

    Assortment of candy, including Turkey Joints wrapped for gifts.

    As I said in my review a year ago, I've been coming here to buy peanut butter ribbon candy for many years. And for probably the last 20 years to buy Turkey Joints. The prior 20 years the Turkey Joints were given to me every Christmas holiday as a gift from my mother-in-law. You see, Turkey Joints are made in Rome, NY where my wife grew up, so she had been introduced to them long before meeting me. Ironically, one Xmas when my mother-in-law also gave us a box of ribbon candy, which Santa must have told her I really enjoy, I happened to notice that the box was the same design as the one's I had recently purchased at Candy Kraft. When I opened the box from my mother-in-law, the inside of the cover was stamped with Candy Kraft's name. The next time I was in Candy Kraft I mentioned it to the clerk and they explained to me how the owners of both businesses met at candy school and agreed to exchange each other's product for sale. So now I had a local supplier of Turkey Joints once I no longer had a reason to make regular trips to Rome. I'm not going to tell you what they are, if you don't already know, with the hope that you'll visit the friendly folks at Candy Kraft. They have a lot of delicious candy and they make most of it on the premises, even the ribbon candy. This year they even were kind enough to give me a reusable cloth sack in which to carry my purchases. I then turned with a jerk and laid my finger aside of my nose, and giving a nod, out the door I strode. I sprang to my car, whose exhaust gave a whistle, and down route 20 I flew like the down of a thistle.

    Best place on earth!!!!

    There is never a time when I go back to Schenectady that I don't stop in here. Bob, Donna, Brad and everyone else at this shop are so friendly and it is always a great reminder of home. Their cherry cordials and the peanut butter ribbon candy are my favorites. All made by hand and you can tell it too. Their chocolate is rich and flavorful and delicious, not waxy at all, which sometimes you can find in store-bought chocolate. Their homemade hard candies are spot on and I love to pick up some of these too. My wife is a fan of their wafer mints (especially the wintergreen and peppermint) and I always pick her up some when I'm in. The minute you walk through the door, the smell of chocolate is just like a "welcome home!" I am big fan of their cherry cordials, both the milk and the dark. You can tell they are homemade and the cordial inside is a rich balance of sweet but not too much. If you've never had peanut butter ribbon candy, you should! It actually melts in your mouth. It is the perfect blend of sweetness and peanut butter. It is one of those candies that takes you back to when you were a little kid and you could hardly wait to pick out a candy for yourself! There is a reason that this independent fine candy shop has been around for the last 82 years...there is no place finer to satisfy your candy cravings than Candy Kraft! Oh yeah - and did I mention they ship?! I now live in Florida and in the winter months, I will often surprise my family with a Candy Kraft care package...you're welcome, family!

    Delicious candy and even better service. Love this gem of a store and the people who work there

    I think Candy Kraft has a lot of candy and it is cool and I like candy Kraft because I get to eat almost all the chocolate and almost all the candy. Caden age

    It's hard walking by Kilwins and not stopping in for a goodie. The delicious sweet smell of…read morechocolates amongst a good variety of yummy treats is irresistible. My willpower is weak when I pass... To start, their hand crafted caramel corn, small batch premium ice cream offerings as well as their assorted chocolates and chocolate bark is so rich and delectable. It's hard to practice moderation when you step inside their store! I always have trouble deciding what to buy but I never leave empty handed! Their treats are well worth it and are really that good! I especially enjoy their mint chip ice cream with real chocolate chunks in a freshly made waffle cone. So much so that I didn't even capture it on camera as I was in the moment. I love the rich and creamy texture and its intense flavor. There is nothing that I don't like about Kilwins. Good quality treats are a must have in my book!

    Came here in store and everything was so aesthetically pleasing! I wanted to by so many yummy…read moregoodies but it was quite pricey which held me back a lot. Tried the samples of ice cream which were delicious and will come back next time to try more. I also wanted some of the fresh chocolate items behind the glass counter but didn't because I noticed some of those tiny flies inside which felt off. So I opted for some of the packaged goodies! The pretzels sampling box and chocolate caramel pecans were delicious!
