I got about a pound of candy for around $14 to try a good mix of everything from chewy and sour gummies to chocolate.

While I was paying, the lady told me they've been open for 35 years, so they are definitely doing well. A great place to stop by if to indulge on some sweets and treats.

There was one guy working who was super helpful in answering our questions. After looking at the selection of chocolates we decided on getting mini truffles. They can come in as a box of 1, 2, 4, 8, or 12. There were a few flavors we picked that were sold out, but ended up getting sea salt caramel, strawberry, strawberry cheesecake, sweet dreams, Dubai, peanut butter, red velvet, and white chocolate. The sea salt caramel is a fan favorite and definitely one of the favorites I tried as well. The mini truffles are priced at $2.50/piece so a box of 8 will set you back at $20. I wasn't a big of the white chocolate or Dubai, but these are definitely great chocolates to treat yourself or to give as a gift. I'd definitely recommend trying them out and hope to come back to try out all the other flavors.

I first ran into Wild Child Chocolate at a holiday crafts fair in December. Then in April, I got chocolate for my family for the spring holidays. They were a HUGE HIT! Everyone loved them. I got four flavors, so we did a mini chocolate tasting. I had all dark chocolate selections. These are the kinds of chocolates that you eat a little at a time, so you can savor them. The chocolate is handmade, super fresh, and have interesting flavor combinations. They are also made with ethically sourced ingredients. Because I live near the pop-up, I was able to pick up my order. My order was packed and ready, the man at the counter was delightful, as we wished one another a happy holiday! Couldn't be better! Delivery is available on their website for those not lucky enough to live near Wild Child Chocolate.

Imagine this place was built just a few years after our country first began in 1776. It was formerly a General Store, School & Post Office. It was purchased & moved to this location by Henry Ford. Yes that Henry Ford of the Ford Motor Company. The foundation of the building was made from huge boulders dug up from the grounds, & the basement is supported by pillars made out of huge tree trunks. There is a secret located in the cellar. The stairs are hand carved from logs & the steps are joined together with wooden pegs. Mr. Ford had a way to detect burglars that predated burger alarms. What Henry did was to loosen the pegs in every third stair so they creaked. When someone stepped on them that would signal that a burglar was climbing the stairs.

We got in earlier than expected, a little before 7, and they only let people in as others came out. There were probably 20+ vendors amateur and professional. I will post pictures later. A majority of the cupcakes were bite size so they were perfect to try! The bar sold wine, beer, milk and water. I sampled plenty of red velvet, chocolate, vanilla, peanut butter confections. The most unique included the cereal aisle, the chocolate affair, strawberry margarita, a sweet and sour lemon vanilla cake, and soda pop. If you're a cupcake fanatic this is a great event to go to to get some new ideas, sample some businesses, and perhaps even hire if you're looking for someone to cater. Nevertheless, get there early, try all the cupcakes you want, but always remember, do not take any out so others can have some too!
