We had one Turtle each and put the rest in the refrigerator. The next day, we packed and left and went back to AZ and we forgot our goodies!

They are handmade and so delicious! Go there now or order online! You won't be sorry!

All of the candy is good but my personal favorite ends at the homemade caramel. They have the best caramel apples I have had anywhere, hands down. When I come to Okoboji this is my must stop for treats to bring back as well as my morning coffee. The service is quick and friendly. What else can I get here? Hot tea, greeting cards, teapots, colorful kitchen items, gifts, pie, cheesecake, cookies, homemade confections, nuts, ice cream and did I mention coffee? I am sure I missed telling you things. Go here. Have an ice cream cone in the afternoon. Life is more fun with a bit of a treat now and again.

Came here to see if they would have some unique candies to the Midwest, and lo and behold, they did. I ended up buying a bunch of Caramel Cobs, which I've never seen out East. They made great "little" (little is in quotation marks because these things are actually fairly large for treats) gifts for my friends back home. They have a bunch of other candies as well. Well worth checking out, if you happen to be in the Emporium or near Arnolds Park.

While the selection is generally very good, and the people generally pleasant, the clerks were completely unapologetic about selling candy cigarettes (and candy chew). This lead to a long discussion in the car and some disagreement about the appropriate behaviour in such circumstances. So, I won't be back. I'll get candy from places that are quite literally less likely to corrupt (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candy_cigarette). So, you can see this a 5-star review as well as a 1-star review, and if you are a proponent of candy cigarettes, they have the widest selection I've ever seen. They are also overpriced, but for the selection it's a good deal.

There were about five employees in the store, one working at the ice cream section, some making popcorn, and some in the back makingCandy. Everyone was keeping busy, but they all greeted us. One of the gals offered to help and told us about the specials right away. We bought fudge because my husband and son love it and I bought truffles. Everything was delicious. I sampled a little bit of the salted caramel corn, which was equally tasty. I wish I would've bought some. We got some of our delicious candy and headed out. I really just love the atmosphere and how they created their space for their Candy shop. If you don't drive out to Marshalltown anytime soon, they also ship out all over the country.
