What an awesome, full featured confectionery shop. The prices aren't cheap but you can tell with…read moreevery bite that you're getting delicious, high quality treats. The decor in here is super cute, with all the different products being displayed in an organized and attractive manner. This alone makes this a more fun shopping experience than buying candy from a standard grocery store. At times, it may be difficult to determine the price of different items, but the staff is very helpful with helping shoppers navigate their way around the store. There is definitely something for everyone here, but this is especially good if you are a chocolate lover as there's a very wide assortment of available options here. This is particularly true if you're into truffles, with some interesting options such as jalapeno margarita, tiramisu, rum, and others in addition to the usual selection of fruit, coffee, caramel, etc. flavors. This is also a great spot to get interesting looking gifts. Outside of the usual gift boxes and tins, you'll find chocolate in fun shapes (like birthday cake), seasonal confection options with cute decorations, pretzels, nuts, chocolate pops, gummies, and more. Overall, this is a great place to shop for delicious sweets and competitive in price to other premium candy shops. If you're looking for something unique in both design and flavor, definitely come here versus going to a chain store.

Opened the sealed box a few days later and was beyond disappointed. Despite the "Best by 3/26/27" - the banana chips were so stale they truly tainted the smell and taste of the raisins, mangos, cranberries and pineapple. Removed them and placed in a mason jar after airing the batch on a cookie sheet a few hours. Buyer beware! Perhaps stick to their chocolates?

We got some butter toffee, toffee pretzels and chocolate covered strawberries. All soo good!! The strawberries were so fresh!

The young gentleman helping me was incredibly personable and friendly, even sharing the history of the store with such pride and enthusiasm. You can truly tell he loves where he works and values the family/business behind it. I was amazed by the variety and quality of chocolates -- definitely not your average commercial candy shop. Everything felt unique, thoughtful, and special. To top it off, he beautifully wrapped the gift in a box with a ribbon, which made it feel even more personal and meaningful. Definitely returning again -- both for gifts and for myself!

Recently walking down Milwaukee Ave after dinner, we came across this place--we had to stop by during business hours. I called a few days later and talked to Nathan...what a wonderful young guy! When we went in to the cozy shop, to see he and his coworkers, for gifts, they were so helpful. Buying a pre-boxed selection was one option or picking out some truffles, peanut butter "buckets, and other beautiful chocolates. The recipient absolutely loved them, thoroughly enjoying the toffee, the peanut butter confections, and the truffles---the dark chocolate lemon and the red velvet with white chocolate were the big winners! Seriously, think about giving confections and chocolates for the holidays, from this place! It has the small-town feel to it with the help, the location and the selection. Check them out for corporate gifts or personal gifts...they wrap beautifully! See them sooner than later, the holidays will be here before you know it!

We spotted Uniquely Sweet next door and saw their open sign was lit up, so we went in. The shop itself isn't very large, but they have a good selection of chocolates, other sweets, and unique gifts. The chocolate all looked good, but we decided to limit ourselves to two items each. I got two types of pretzel rods - one with caramel and sea salt, the other with toffee. Both were beyond decadent and I'm glad I didn't go crazy. My Husband got a ENRG Bar and a Mud Slide square. He said they were both delicious but I didn't try them since I was sure they'd be too rich for me. Our small bag of goodies was just under $8, which I thought was reasonable for such a sweet treat. If we get a chance to check out the winery when they are open, we'll definitely come here again too!

I was hoping I could order in French, but they told me only the owner speaks it. The seating outside is also like what you'd find in Europe where there are many small round tables and wicker chairs facing the street. I would actually suggest going when it's nice enough to sit outside because the seating area is a bit cramped inside. I ordered a crepe and Liège waffle. Both were very good, although having spent a month in Liège before, the wasn't exactly what I was expecting. It was somewhere between a Brussels waffle and a Liège waffle. The former generally have many toppings, and this one had powdered sugar and Chantilly on the side. Liège waffles are supposed to be plain brioche waffles with little sugar crystals baked into them that you can basically eat with your hands. It has the texture of a Liège waffle, but not the sugar crystals (and not topping-less). It was good anyhow.

A lot of exquisite looking candies great for gifts. There's also a menu with coffee and sandwiches so it's also okay at lunch. Came in and it wasn't that busy to be honest. It's usually only a few people working here and it can be a wait to place an order. The prices are better on the beverages than the food which is pretty basic things. Certainly wanted to get a few things with chocolate. It's about $6 for a coffee. The one I got was the Mocha Beige Latte. Comes with a choice of chocolate. There's dark, milk, or even white. Food is okay. It's about $10 for the Avocado Toast. A rip off for a piece of bread. You can add an egg but it already costs too much so piss off. Among other items are croissants. These mostly have cheese, eggs, and ham. Got to say it has lots of chocolates. It's located downtown on Shermer at Meadow. There's plenty of interesting chocolates to enjoy and many of these are seasonal.
