Mrs. Mason's is a tiny shop near downtown Royal Oak. I never knew this shop existed until I…read moresearched for a chocolaterie on Yelp to buy a gift for one of my favorite college professors. I enjoy finding hidden gems on Yelp. An excellent small business like Mrs. Mason's deserves more attention. Mrs. Mason's specializes in handmade premium brittle and brittle bonbons. The owner was the only person when I visited on a Sunday morning. She gave me samples, and everything I tried in Mrs. Mason's brittle and bonbon collection was delicious, crunchy, and buttery. I bought an 8 oz. gift box of Heart & Soul Brittle ($26.95) for my college professor. I also purchased an 8 oz. bag of Bare-Naked Cashew Brittle ($22.95) for my mom. They both thought the brittle was delicious. A bit pricey, but it makes an excellent gift for anyone who likes brittle or bonbons.

What a quaint gem of a spot here in downtown Royal Oak…read more I got a small 4 ounce bag of their best friend's brittle. It will make any enemy a best friend after a bite or two of this brittle. The brittle has a nice thicker layer of the toffee, two layers of the white chocolate as well as the semi-sweet chocolate. It's a nice balance of crunchy hard toffee and melt in your mouth chocolates. Makes for a fantastic holiday gift and treat for friends and family alike. The smaller 4 ounce is great to accompany a charcuterie gift set or a stocking stuffer too.

The person helping us had the best energy and was really helpful and patient. Their positivity was contagious and it also felt sincere. The aesthetics here are very pleasant, pleasing, bright and colorful. They offer Homemade ice cream made into popsicle type treats, they also have soft serve, they offer non dairy items along with dairy and an array of dips and toppings. I got the watermelon non-dairy frozen soft serve with Dulce de leche and dark chocolate topping that hardens. I added a mango drizzle and it was magically delicious! There are tons of choices and I cannot wait to return to try other flavors and combinations.

This is a very happy place. It is chock full of bright colors, nice people, and sugary treats. So…read moremany sugary treats! There are shakes, soft serve options, customizable ice cream bars (what they are known for), sorbet and ice cream cakes. They also have hot pretzels if sugar is not your thing. I think I ordered wrong. I went with the Sweet and Salty, which is soft serve ice cream with a hard chocolate shell, pretzels, and potato chips. A couple of major design flaws on this - the shell was so hard that I could not get to the ice cream and the cup was so small that all of the toppings were falling off (onto the ground). That said, I would gladly return to try one of the customized ice cream bars. Staff were friendly and helpful. They have indoor and outdoor seating.

This place was neat. I hadn't seen it before and according to the other reviews on here, they moved…read morefrom a Woodward location to 9 Mile, so that would explain it. Huge selection of gifts, including some fun Schitt's Creek stuff and Golden Girls, and also lots of candy and chocolate. They had Coffee Crisp which surprised me, it's a Canadian chocolate bar and I've never seen it outside of Canada. They are still requiring masks as of right now (6/13/21) which was nice, also. Only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it's a bit pricey - most of the gifts I saw were $9.99 and up, for small things, and they had some Sanders one-piece chocolates for 75c (I've seen them 25-50c in other stores). Otherwise, this was a fun store to browse and I will be back at some point.

Clean and well maintained. Free parking. Made a recommendation that I try the Blue Moon since it's a limited edition flavor. Prices are moderate($17 for half dozen), and the cookies are a nice size and very tasty! I like the wax bags which help keep your treats fresh. Ambiance is cute and quaint. Seating area with stools and counter with a nice view. A great spot to grab a treat, beverage and to people watch.

I stopped in for a peanut butter cookie & ate it before I snapped a picture. This is the other…read morecookie I chose. I can't remember the name of it but I know it has potato chips and a buttery flavor. 8/10 I heated it up! Customer service is pretty good. The customer ahead of me wasn't ready to order and they asked me to go ahead while they figured out what they wanted. They do have numerous choices. The peanut butter cookie was ok 7/10. I prefer golden brown with crispy edges. I came here because it's closer than my regular bakery. They have several spots for parking on the side of their building (which is convenient).

NEED MORE BERRIES in the scones !!!…read more The last few times I purchased either the Blueberry or raspberry white chocolate (which were my faves) it is difficult to find the fruit. May be 3 blueberries in the entire scone, so mostly eating dough. I would buy these more often if you loaded with fruit and rate 5 stars!!! To make them more enjoyable, I cut into 4 pieces and put my own fruit in the middle. Added a little butter and baked at 350 for 5 minutes. Please just add more fruit? For the price you pay it would be a much better scone. Thanks!!

It was dense, dry and tasted somewhat stale, with very little flavor or anything, especially no lemon flavor.

Needless to say we won't be buying any other Elwin & Co products!
