THE best chocolates in Indiana. I'm calling it, people. And you can believe me, because I've eaten…read morea lot of chocolate in Indiana. I get around. J. Evelyn Confections -- also somewhat confusingly called Greenfield Chocolates by some -- is a boutique chocolate shop in downtown Greenfield. They use Valrhona chocolate and other high-quality ingredients to make their confections, and everything that they make is so fresh that they ask you to eat it within two weeks. I love that these chocolates are so good that they have rules! I don't think any kind of chocolate, in any amount, would last two weeks at my house, especially if it came from this chocolate shop, so that's no problem for me. They gave samples of their milk chocolate and dark chocolate, both of which were amazing. The chocolate has a snap when you bite into it, which is what you want. Then, it melts in your mouth. So luscious and delicious. I got a small sampler box of some of their popular chocolates: a milk chocolate caramel, a creamy vanilla bean truffle, a lemon chiffon truffle, a chocolate that had champagne in it (!!) and a crispy chocolate bonbon. Each chocolate was unique and spectacular and delightful. They have lots of chocolates and truffles, but they also sell chocolate bars, chocolate-covered nuts, caramel clusters and so many other chocolate-covered things. Greenfield Chocolates -- also called J. Evelyn Confections -- has received the Indiana Artisan seal of approval, which is kind of a big deal! It means that this local chocolate shop is committed to creating handcrafted and high-quality products in Indiana, which is really cool.

I tried to walk by this shop, but some involuntary response pulled me in. I don't know if it was…read moreall the pink or the artistic chocolates. But I only went in to look, not buy. The clerk was friendly and happy to tell me the story of the owner, her friend who has this remarkable candy making skills. Most of the chocolate comes from Europe and all the candies are made fresh on site. The candies looked like little works of art. Some of the candies have a short shelf life (a couple days) because they are made of fresh ingredients and preservative free. She told me that their best seller are these giant nut clusters. They come with pecans or cashews and milk chocolate or dark. I picked out a dark chocolate cashew cluster. I ate my candy later in the evening and it tasted simply devine. The chocolate was rich and salty and the caramel creamy with the crunch of the fresh tasting nuts. What a treat. I'll be returning. The clerk told me that they decorate seasonly, and Christmas decor is fabulous.

Tim is so friendly, the vibes are unmatched. The samples offered led us to the best combination to take home. I had to have a bag of the cinnamon beignet with honey butter. My boyfriend brought home the trilogy of the spiciest flavors offered! Very unique flavors like sweet potato pie and butter cookie, loaded potato, honey bbq, peach cobbler, root beer, pizza, pickle, naptown, and SO SO many more. Definitely a must visit spot in the mall.

What a fun and welcoming place to get a coffee and sit for a while. I ordered the raspberry dream latte and she ordered some caramel honey something iced coffee and they were both delicious! We sat down in the caboose and enjoyed the details and we just went to the back to get some pictures. I will say I can honestly appreciate that they have a reservation sign up for the back of the caboose which makes so much sense. Time and time again we have gone to coffee shops and too many people are just hogging up areas and or treating the coffee shops like it's their personal office area so i definitely appreciate that you must make a reservation to enjoy the experience of the caboose. Other coffee shops should get on board with this kind of idea...pun intended! (Wink wink) Our experience was definitely a great one and looking forward to a not so windy day to be able to enjoy the patio area outside. Great staff, great drinks! Definitely a must visit!

I've been a customer for 6 years, but the direction this company is going has lost me…read more My biggest issue is the change of how they are selling almond butters and cashew butters - one time only presale and having to wait weeks for product rather than buying when you need or want to. Then it's on the customers to buy and meet the company's goal, otherwise they will be refunded. How is that a customer friendly approach, it's a frustrating experience. The company did not meet the cashew butter goal, so what did they do, they extended the timeline, because of course that is not customer friendly to cancel when it's just 70 jars from not meeting their goal. Which now results in a misleading and dishonest practice. Aside from that, they are not transparent about the future and inconsistent about their messaging. You see people making comments stating they want to buy more almond butters or want different flavors offered and I've seen both the response of we hope to have almonds on the site soon to then changing we hope to do another presale, which is not sustainable to put this all on the customers at one time. Or they give the frustrating line of we never say never! My advice to the company, stop focusing on posting trendy reels and start focusing on transparency with the direction and future of the company with consistent messaging, as well as offering product in a better way, because this is not it.
