The shop seemed especially large for the amount of chocolate they had inside. I did like the discount on the easter candy on my visit. I love peanut butter eggs, so had to pick up a few. The chocolate was pretty good. My favorite of the several options I picked up were the dark chocolate covered pretzels. The shop also has a variety of popcorn for purchase along with a Rita's Italian Ice shop in the back. Finally, there is a side room with some classic claw machines for the kids to play when not hyped up on chocolate sugar.

I recently participated in Georgie Lou's Retro Candy's 6th Annual Sweetheart Stroll, and while this…read moremay have been their sixth time hosting it, it was my first time even hearing about it. I immediately corrected that mistake by buying a ticket the moment I saw the event posted--and then started counting down the days. The concept alone sold me: a ticketed, adults-focused stroll through downtown Carlisle, with participating small businesses offering tastings, experiences, treats, and deals. Sweethearts of all kinds were welcome--couples, besties, gal pals--and dressing in red and pink for Valentine's vibes was strongly encouraged. Say less. Ticketing was super easy, and Georgie Lou's did a fantastic job with pre-event communication, especially via social media. One post in particular deserves a shout-out: a reminder to bring a bag to carry your treats. This is something I absolutely would not have thought about until I was awkwardly shoving sweet treats into my coat pockets. I came prepared with a small reusable shopping bag (pink, obviously), and by the end of the stroll it was completely full of sweets, trinkets, and purchases. Meanwhile, others were struggling with overflowing pockets alongside gloves, hats, maps, and life regrets. Lesson learned. Excellent advice! I found parking around 1pm and headed to Georgie Lou's to check in and grab my materials. The staff were incredibly friendly, checked my name off the list, and sent me on my way with a Map of Hearts, a button identifying me as an official 2026 Sweetheart Stroller, and a small sweet treat to kick things off. I also took some time to explore the shop itself--my first visit--and wow! They have managed to pack an impressive amount of nostalgic goodness into a small space. Total blasts from the past, plus candies I'd never seen before. Super fun shop! From there, the stroll itself was a delight. Georgie Lou's clearly put a lot of care into coordinating participating businesses, and it showed. Most spots offered sweet treats, discounts, or special offerings, but every single business was warm, welcoming, and happy to have folks stopping in. Even though I've done a few downtown Carlisle walk-style events before, I still discovered shops I'd never been in--and every purchase I made that day was from a place I was visiting for the first time. That alone feels like a win. Overall, this was a fantastic way to spend a few hours on a very chilly January Saturday. It got me out of the house, walking downtown, supporting local businesses, and discovering gems I usually zoom past while driving from Point A to Point B. I had such a great time that I jokingly asked if I could pre-register for next year... apparently that's "not a thing yet." Fine. I'll wait. :) This has officially been added to my annual tradition list. Great event, great execution, great vibes. Well done, Georgie Lou's!

Came here on a whim, we weren't really in the Altoona area to go candy shopping. If it was not for…read moremy sister I would not have known this was here. When you pull in it looks more like an office building than an establishment that sales wholesale candy. Walking in I wasn't sure what to expect. It is wall to wall aisles filled with bulk everything. It may say candy on the building, but there are other bulk items that are sold within. You can get salty snacks as well and, believe it or not, cleaning supplies and paper products. Think of this as a slimmed down Sam's. I knew I was going to end up spending an obscene amount of money on things I didn't need in here. I walked up and down the aisles and thought to myself, I haven't seen this candy in a long time and it would appear in front of my face. I ended up buying way too many things in bulk, but I also ended up purchasing single items as well. There was no way I needed bulk Razzles. I did need bulk Dunk-a-roos. I will definitely come back here when I see myself in need of buying candy in bulk.

Families should consider these factors when deciding whether this establishment aligns with their preferences and expectations.

Note that COVID-19 precautions are in place -- masks for staff and patrons. It has a very pleasant decor containing gift items, greeting cards, chocolate everywhere, and ice cream. Though I was sorely tempted by all the chocolate, especially fudge, I opted for an ice cream cone of monkey business (banana, caramel, chocolate). They were having a 2 scoop for one special so, of course, I had to get 2 scoops in a regular cone. All added up, it was I think $2.25... a deal for deliciousness. The very sweet employee told me that their ice cream was from Oakmont but they were changing to another that I forgot the name.
