For kosher dessert, Kron is pretty great! We got some kosher-for-passover desserts here for Seders and we were all impressed with how good they tasted. The plates they came in were pretty, too. You'll find ideas for gifts for others and treats for yourself, too. The prices are high for the amount you get (the plates were the size of my hand but over $30) so you might not enjoy the bill, but they're delicious and presentation is a 10/10. read more

not as good as they were 25 years ago!!. today they are sending bad candy ..................................................................................................... read more

Kron's newer location is as good or better than the original spot. Saw an amazing array of full sized bunnies and the signature Kron bunny for Easter. Tons of pre-made baskets sure to wow anyone you bring them too. Covered marshmallows, pretzels. Now more basic dipped pretzels, where once they were a bit more extravagant looking. They are in a far easier to find location right on Middle Neck Road In the village of Great Neck. It's an easy place to go to and take a nice stroll, have lunch and enjoy a bit of time when there. This was once a favorite place of mine years back and now looks even nicer. Prices very reasonable for the location and quality Tried a few items, was not sure the chocolate was the same flavor I remembered. Used to be darker milk than some and a stronger flavor. Now a bit softer and seemed more like a craft shop flavor. Not sure. Would try again or ask the owner if the same recipe.. read more

Bought few dark chocolate turtles today As a customer who have being going to this place for a number of years, Thought I had to mention; Prices go up, but portions shrink Might be good for the business Not so good for the consumer read more

Great chocolate! It's a small, but very cute chocolate shop with a ton of great gift baskets and items for special occasions. Love that they make their own stuff here. It's really cool to see them at work in the back crafting the the stuff you are about to buy and eat. I'll eat anything chocolate so I might be a bit biased but I loved the chocolate from here. The 72% dark chocolate bar was my absolute favorite. For me, the darker the better. I want the real taste of chocolate. I don't want it diluted by other ingredients. (Sorry if I'm coming across like a chocolate snob). I didn't buy many items from here but if that one chocolate bar (made in-house) was any indication of how the rest of their stuff tastes, then this place is a gold mine. read more

Kron Chocolatier - a person holding a bag of chocolate covered donuts - Candy Stores Near Me - Great Neck, New York

Little cute chocolate store, but I think it's a bit over priced. Beautiful displays chocolate trays and boxes with all kind of variety of kosher and non kosher. The lady wasn't so engaging with customer and at that time I was being the only customer at the store. I ended up bought a tray of nuts and chocolate truffle for a gift, I hope they are good. read more

*Last week, I was having lunch with a friend in Great Neck. As, I drove down Middle Neck road, I spotted two chocolate shoppes. Because, it is so close to Easter, I decided to stop in and get some chocolate bunnies and other treats. I really enjoy trying out different chocolate shoppes, for their truffles, specialty items, and plain chocolate. I quickly went onto Yelp, to see if I can get more info on Kron and Lazar's. In this case, yelp was not too helpful. There was only 5 reviews for both chocolate shoppes combined. Lazar's looked a lil busier, but I choose to go to Kron. I thought it would be more of what I was looking for. It a decent sized store. We started with the Easter items, which was displayed on one side of the store. Within 30 seconds of walking in, we were approached by someone, I believed to be an owner. I think she was trying to be helpful, but I felt like I needed some breathing room. I wanted a few minutes to browse around and just talk with my friend about the items. My friend spotted a ceramic bunny dish, that he wanted to buy as a gift for someone. The dish was $45., I thought it was over priced, but he wanted to buy it. The sales woman, suggested to fill the dish with chocolate for an additional $37.00 The sales woman did this sort of thing (up selling) alot . I noticed a cute tray, and I pointed it out to my friend. The sales person, over heard me and was pushing me to buy one of the trays. I thought it was cute, but I have no need for it. As far as chocolate bunnies go, they had a decent selection. They offered milk, dark and white in several shapes and sizes. I bought 4 solid milk bunnies. I am not sure if they have hollow chocolate bunnies. I know, it's a few days to Easter, but I actually cracked open one of the bunnies today. I was not wowed by the chocolate. Sometimes, when I eat chocolate,I get a bit out of control and eat too much, because it is soo tasty. But, with this chocolate, I was able to put it down. It wasn't bad, but if I stop eating chocolate after only a few bites, something is off. I actually prefer the milk chocolate bars I had in my house, from Trader Joe's. But, I also tried the chocolate graham cracker at Krons, and that was better than the bunny. Aside from their Easter selection, I was disappointed by their selection. They did have pre packaged items of chocolate raisins, espresso beans, gummy bears, pretzels, and malt balls. Behind, the counter they had chocolate graham crackers, apricots and marsh mellows. I was looking for truffles and a la carte pieces. It is possible, that they have a wider chocolate selection, than what they display. I asked the sales person, about one of the pieces I saw in a gift basket. It was a small chocolate square, with orange lines. The sales person said, it was Dulce Du leche. They said, they can customize any order with anything. Anyway, if they do have more of a selection in the back, I wish they would bring it out front. I would have bought more... They do have cute non food items. I noticed another reviewer said, they dip strawberries for you in the shoppe. But, I did not see any sign of that. read more

When you walk past a chocolate shop, and the insane aroma of chocolate lures you in, you know you're in store for some wonderful stuff. As soon as we walked by and PAST the shop, my daughter and I looked at each other, stopped, reversed our field, and walked back toward Kron Chocolatier. Yep, the aroma was THAT alluring. We then walked in, and I saw beautifully displayed gift baskets, rich chocolates staring at me, calling my name. Everything was displayed just so, not overly crowded, just right, so I could see everything they offered without being overwhelmed, yet with wanting to try one of everything. Big, huge slabs of dried fruits dipped in luxurious dark or milk chocolate, graham crackers covered in milk chocolate, truffles. Pretzels drenched in chocolate, then covered with nuts or ground up oreos or toffee bits........ or just plain chocolate. They even have home décor type gift items. We all know K Chocolatier from Malibu and Beverly Hills, owned by Diane Kron. So I walked into Kron Chocolatier, thinking it was the same store. Not so, as the Great Neck store owner informed me. Similar in name, not similar in product, and definitely not owned by the same person/people. Either way, no matter...... I was quickly corrected....... .......But I sure didn't make any mistake about purchasing some of THIS Kron Chocolatier's wonderful chocolates. Naturally, I had to bring some chocolate dipped pretzels home to hubby and other daughter..... plus I bought some of their amazing truffles..... truly melt in your mouth dark chocolate truffles. Divine. I also bought a 1/2 pound of a variety of chocolates.......chocolate dipped fruit, graham crackers, caramel-filled chocolate, chocolates with nuts. If you find yourself in or around GREAT Neck, make your way over to this GREAT chocolate shop, so you can buy some GREAT chocolates and get a whiff of the GREAT chocolate aroma in a store that makes their chocolates on the premises. They are a bit pricey, but worth every bite ! read more

Utterly disgusting low quality garbage chocolates! How can this place even stay in business selling this trash for such a high price? My fiancé got my mom an assorted box of chocolates from here for her 70th birthday. It was inedible. You're better off getting a box of Russell Stover chocolates from CVS! Not even kidding!!! My fiancé was so upset that she actually gave my mom such a terrible gift for her 70th. I'm leaving this review on her behalf. I tried about 3 different ones from the box because I thought they can't be that bad. I spit each one out...enough said. read more

I stopped in to buy a gift for a friend, and was overwhelmed by the delicious smell of chocolate! The woman working there was very helpful, and my friend absolutely loved the chocolate. I would readily shop here again. read more

I recently went to Kron and bought a 1 pound box of assorted milk chocolates that was prepared on the spot by the owner. Later, at home, when I tried a piece of this chocolate I was surprised to find that it tasted awful and I had to spit it out. I tried another different type piece and it was the same thing - the taste was bad. I threw away the entire box (about $40 down the drain). read more

If you want delicious & high quality chocolate look no further!! It was gifted to me for Christmas and I've order several times since.. it makes a great gift. read more

With Kron Chocolatier you get the best of all worlds: The chocolate is amazing. I am usually not a big dark chocolate fan, but their dark chocolate is rich, not chalky and bitter. A great selection in milk and dark; turtles, puddles, assorted truffles, PB cups, and hand dipped fruit and pretzels. Owners who know their business. I sent a baby gift to a good friend, a basket filled with chocolate goodies, including a solid chocolate baby bottle. I mean, c'mon. Does it get any better than that? The gift arrived fast and in perfect condition. You can go to the mall and deal with someone who does not want to be there. Or you can go online and order from some nameless entity who could care less about you. For my money, I'd rather go where the owners are local and are in the store making sure I have a great experience. I can tell you, every time I am in the store the experience is excellent! Support Local Business!! read more

I ordered 3 boxes of Budapest Truffles to have shipped for Father's Day. They were shipped in a regular brown box with just a small ice pack thrown on top (no stryofoam, no dry ice etc.). They arrived within 48 hours of shipping and were brought inside immediately. The ice pack was hot. All gifts arrived melted and inedible (at 3 different locations). I called to request a refund or to have them replaced. The lady condescendingly mentioned that "chocolate is made of butter which melts." She also recommended that I refreeze the completely melted chocolate and then eat them. Gross & dangerous! She agreed to send one replacement box to me and never mentioned a possible refund. The replacement arrived in exactly the same condition, melted and inedible. I gave up at this point. I would not recommend ordering ANY products from this company online. They have no idea how to package their products sufficiently for shipping. If they can't figure out a way to get their product to you (and charge accordingly) they should not take your money. A complete waste of money and disappointment! read more

Located on Middle Neck Road along the main stretch of stores in Great Neck, Kron is an absolute gem! The quality of the product is fantastic. I would highly recommend anything in the store. However, some of my favorites include the fresh daily dipped fruit, the chocolate covered mini pretzels, and the Budapest truffles. Anything I have ever bought from Kron has also been beautifully wrapped. Not only is the product amazing, but the service at the store is wonderful! The owners are extremely helpful and accommodating. I would HIGHLY recommend Kron to anyone, whether you're looking for a gift for someone, or for a delicious treat!!! read more

You can always find something wonderful and delicious at Kron. The woman who owns the store is friendly and extremely helpful when putting a gift together and will work within a budget if you're doing something on a grand scale. Definitely a must stop when walking down Middle Neck Road or looking for that special holiday chocolate. read more

I placed an order on the website of Kron Chocolatier for 4 items at 15$ each and my paypal account was billed accordingly. I was later called by the company and told the price would be 65$ each. They said the price posted on their site was incorrect and they were "too small" to absorb the cost of their error. Buyer Beware - Choose a company large enough to conduct their business with integrity. read more

Would not recommend due to very poor customer service. The person who took the order transcribed numbers in the zip code and as a result, the delivery was several days late. The owner did not apologize or offer to make any adjustment to the shipping charge- she just repeated how her employee does not make mistakes. Order from this store if you want aggravation and late delivery! read more

I noticed this little shop while in Great Neck for a training for my job last week. On the last day I was there, I decided to go in and buy some chocolates for my colleagues. They had a decent selection and everything was attractively displayed. I chose a small box of assorted chocolates for my colleagues and two truffles, one for my husband and one for myself. I was a little concerned that they may not travel well, as I knew I would be taking the bus to the airport that afternoon before flying home. All of the chocolates made the trip well in my carry on bag. My husband and I had our truffles the next day. We both thought they were good, though not the absolute best we ever had. I just brought the box of chocolates to the office today and my colleagues have raved about them. You can't tell by looking at them what kind they are, but no one has had any complaints and several of them have groaned with pleasure from the taste! Overall, I would recommend this shop. Some items seemed pricey compared to what I would normally pay at home in the Midwest, but the boxed chocolates were definitely worth it. read more
