There were many options to choose from; fudge, ice cream, candy, smoothies, milkshakes, and baked goods. I had the cookies and cream fudge and a chocolate covered peanut butter Ritz cracker. My son had a cake pop and I had a bite, both were good! There were all random flavors of fudge to choose from. I wasn't a fan of the rocky road fudge I picked because it was crunchy and not buttery smooth like the fudge I've had before; I am not sure if it was stale or if that's what the consistency should feel like. I enjoyed the random candies and other treats. I will have to try out their other flavors next time. Service was good I'd definitely return.

BouNom Emporium is a small candy shop, offering candy from around the world from Sweden, UK, Spain, and more. There is an awesome variety of gummy candy that you can scoop into your own bag. Raspberry Lemonade Skulls, Watermelon Gummy Sharks, Pineapple Grapefruit Rings, and other fun flavors and shapes. If you love Peach Rings, you would literally be a kid in a candy store here. My husband likes this kind of gummy candy and hand picked a few different types for him to try. Since I visited around Halloween, there were a lot of fun Halloween shapes like vampire teeth and candy corn. I was also really excited to find the Sakura Matcha Pocky. They also had some of my favorite Kit Kats too. This place is truly unique and I haven't been to another candy shop like it. I loved the fact that they weren't wall to wall full of candy because it gets overwhelming. I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the Avon ares.

"Yes I got some candy kisses for your lips Yes I got some…read morehoney suckle chocolate dripping kisses full of love for you" (Stevie Wonder) I've had Thompson Chocolates bookmarked for a very long time. Why did it take us so long to visit? I suppose their limited hours (Tuesday to Friday) had a lot to do with it, but we did visit today and I'm very glad we did. Why? Well, here ya go... 1) Thompson Chocolates goes way back to 1879 and has been in Meriden since Day One. They are one of the first chocolate companies in America. 2) The store is gorgeous and beautifully organized with colorful displays of chocolate bars, pops, bark, gift boxes, chocolate coins and cigars, and jellybeans. 3) We met the owner Jackie, who was one of the very nicest, friendliest, and generous business owners we've ever seen. 4) We walked into a BOGO sale of leftover Easter candies and scored a nice bag of Dark Easter Eggs and an Easter Goodie Bag for zippo 5) Jackie was super generous and tossed four gift bags of assorted chocolate into our shopping bag as freebies. 6) You get a 10% discount with your Yelp check in. 7) They have a 10% Senior Citizen discount on Wednesday and a military discount every day. 8) They have a mail order business through an on-line store. 9) We paid under $22 for a box of dark chocolate raspberry jellies, two Easter Goodie Bags, two bags of Easter Dark Chocolate Eggs, and four small mesh gift bags of assorted chocolates. One was white chocolate which will be a perfect treat for my granddaughter who won't eat milk or dark chocolate. I sure hope that gives you an idea of how great our visit to Thompson was.

Despite the fact Bridgewater has locations that are closer to me, the shop on LaSalle in West…read moreHartford Center (charming in its own right, and reminiscent of many town centers in Westchester County, NY) was my initiation into their line of fine, decadent chocolates. The shop itself is as tidy as it is tiny. The staff was pleasant and didn't try to "push" anything. They had sugar-free chocolates to which I could treat a very special family member. Their Orange Crisp bar far exceeded my expectations in terms of quality and luxuriousness and has become an instant favorite. I don't indulge in sweets that often, but Bridgewater may very well have changed that!

Fascia's Chocolates is a family-owned chocolaterie that opened in Waterbury, Connecticut in 1964…read more It was founded by husband and wife John & Helen Fascia. An electronic technician by trade, John worked for the Bristol Company. He began to roast nuts and sold them at work to supplement the young family's income. In an effort to increase sales, he and Helen began making chocolates in their basement. In addition to chocolate nut clusters, they soon began to make caramels, toffee and creams. The chocolates became so popular that soon the Fascia's basement operation couldn't keep up with the supply and demand. By 1978, they opened their first retail store on Meriden Road. Two years later, John quit his job so he could make chocolate full time. John and & Helen were soon joined by their three young daughters Louise, Lynne and Laurie. In 1985, the business moved to an expanded storefront on Wolcott Street. As business continued to grow, the business would relocate to Lakewood Road in 1990, Thomaston Avenue in 2008, and finally to Chase River Road in 2013. The Fascia Family still runs the business, although John & Helen are now semi-retired. My family and I recently visited Fascia's Chocolates to attend a special "Chocolate Experience". We were escorted into a small room with other attending families. There we were greeted by Company President Carmen Romeo, who happens to be married to Louise Fascia. He quickly informed us, "I may be the President, but my wife and her sister are the real bosses." He gave us all a presentation where he discussed the history of the company as well as chocolate production in general. He gave all attendees samples of the three main types of chocolate (Dark, Milk & White) and discussed the differences. Afterwards, all children were able to make their own chocolate bar with their choice of toppings. My sons both picked rice cereal and Fruity Pebbles. We also got to take a look at what happens in the production area. After the experience, we all went into the retail shop and explored all of the delicious chocolates that Fascia's produces. While I distracted my sons, my wife discreetly purchased some chocolate coins for St. Patrick's Day and chocolate bunnies for Easter. We all had a great experience at Fascia's Chocolates and hope to enjoy their delicious chocolate again!

The staff brought us to the back room where they go over the history of Fascia's chocolates, the different types and percentages of chocolate as well as other delicacies they make in their stores. We were even able to watch them make other candies live while we made our own. We made a chocolate bar with melted chocolate, decorated it with our candy selection and were able to bring it home. Definitely worth the time and price to learn a little history and take home a sweet treat!

The store has a wide variety of options to choose from. They have boxed chocolates, truffles, fudge, bark, brittle, caramel & toffee, clusters, chocolate bars, gummies, UConn Husky bars, foiled chocolates, caramel popcorn, and many more. My family and I love to stop in to get treats and gifts. Gifting chocolate and candy is a big hit in our family. The chocolates and candies are high quality and tastes delicious. Every season and holiday, they have different chocolates and candies to match the theme. I love what I've tried but my favorites are the chocolate covered pretzels and Oreos. Yes, I highly recommend this place!

The first thing about Munson's is the smell. It is, of course, amazing. Your senses are overwhelmed with the delicious chocolate in the air. They have all sorts of chocolate - most is pre-boxed, and they have accessories like cards and stuffed animals to go along with it if you're getting a gift. Even right before Valentine's Day they have gifts for multiple occasions and persons. I appreciate the tokens for your dog walker. They also have cases of chocolate, and you can make your own box. For obvious reasons, they do not accept returns and I thank them for that!
