They are not easy to find these days, but I grew up loving them and I love them as much now. Regina's has been around since 1926, so they are celebrating 100 years in business. They make their own candy, as well as sell imported candy. They have two stores, the one I visited in St. Paul on St. Claire Avenue and one in West St. Paul. You can also order candy online. This little store is a gem and frankly, I'm grateful that I do not live anywhere near either store, or I would be 50 pounds heavier than I am. I do not have the willpower to resist, although I did refrain from their butter English Toffee (aka Butter Brittle ) and fudge. Everytime I have visited, they have been consistently friendly and helpful. I hope they are around in another 100 years!

It perfectly nailed that dreamy combo of rich, dark chocolate, crunchy graham cracker goodness, and that ooey-gooey marshmallow. Seriously, it hit every single s'more craving spot on. I'm genuinely sad I only grabbed one, but honestly, it's probably for the best because when it comes to s'mores, I have ZERO self-control and would've devoured the whole batch in one sitting. I didn't even take a photo because I was too excited for this and I dove right in. Can't wait to try more treats from the local Groveland Confections! My eyes are looking at the homemade caramels. Chocolate options were absolute perfection. I noticed they are also located in Minnetonka so I may have to go check it out for myself sometime.... VERY SOON!

I came here for the first time as I live right down the road and I would never recommend this place to anyone. I had an incredibly frustrating experience and unfortunately there wasn't any type of resolution that was given to us - not even an apology. The kid at the register simply told me he was new. I understand things happen but at least have a team meeting or something and get your crap figured out. Extremely disappointed. Not a fun experience. Not a place I'd go back to unless they are able to make things right. I have a daughter in TEARS because of my experience and I have been up all night thinking about what to do. Hence why this review is coming at 5am. Stay away from this place and go somewhere else.

There's also a spacious free parking lot, which made the visit even more convenient. One of my favorite things was being able to sample different chocolates and candies before deciding what to buy. My top favorites were the Big Shots, the combination of rich milk chocolate and coconut was absolutely delicious. The Cherry Bombs were another standout!! the chocolate covered cherries were so good its hard to have just one. I was also pleasantly surprised by the Yellow Jackets. I wasn't sure if I would like them, but they completely won me over and will definitely be on my must buy list the next time we visit. They were crunchy and the lemon flavor wasn't artificial at all. Whether you're looking for a thoughtful gift or simply want to treat yourself, this is a great place to stop. The quality of the chocolate is excellent, and for the amount you get, I definitely think it's worth the price. We'll definitely be back!

In the good old days you were able to buy a pound /half whatever of chocolates nope now it's a plastic tray count.
