It was great for the whole crew, the kids and the kids at heart. Denise made my family feel welcome in her family's shop, teaching us step by step about the process of how they make chocolate.

Of course we purchased many of the available sweets and treats on our way out too. 10/10 and will be coming back to when their beverage making class is up and running in the spring!

A very cute chocolate shop that apparently won best candy award. Unfortunately no samples so you…read morejust gotta pick what you want with confidence. They had Easter egg death by chocolate (which they said was very popular) for $8 and BOGO sale. They were definitely veryyy heavy and very chocolatey it didn't disappoint! Just wish there was more dimensions to it than just pure fudgey chocolate since it was advertised as layers of this and that but still solid. Also got these cute orange mints ~$8 but unfortunately had no orange or even mint flavor. I tried all the butter crunch flavors with my favorite being the maple (perfection!!), dark chocolate (heavenly!), and not really liking the milk chocolate since it was too sweet and too thick of a crunch center andunproportional. Tried 1 of each and came out to ~$3. Overall definitely a cute shop and worth trying out! Came on a cold day when the town was all closed so this shop was definitely a highlight.

This is a review based off of a few months ago, I am back in the area and browsed the most recent…read morereviews & noticed the several reviews about the man that works there. I am disabled and have a service dog with me everywhere I go. I left that store absolutely appalled with the way the man talked to me about having a service dog inside. This employee has absolutely no idea about the ADA law and excluded me from a specific sort of the building, also asked me what my disability was and stated that he needed to know because i was a liability in his store. Another poor review about this man that works there- unfortunately i have a feeling he's actually the owner. Please be kind to all of those who walk through the door because impressions do matter and last.

If you want a taste of both, you can order the "cider sammich", which is the homemade hot cider donut sliced in half and filled with and topped with the maple creemee!!

We make sure to visit for a maple creemee every fall! It's also a little gift shop with maple syrup and other fun things to look at or buy! So much fun!

A friend brought me here while I was visiting Northampton and what a treat! $80 later I left with a hand warming mug, a pair of earrings, a bracelet, a roast baster, and a delicious treat called a wrapple (an apple turnover on steroids). I left there with visions of a T-shirt that I will buy for my cat-loving friend entitled "Petting map" which showed all the reachable petting zones on a cat with hilarious captions like "yes, please" and "don't even think about it." Not verbatim but you get the idea. This outfit had all the qualities of the best general store--stocks everything you could ever want, something for everyone, with friendly and helpful staff.

Located in Manchester VT a very homey little candy shop…read more You walk into this place in Manchester and just kinda think...why does this store fit perfectly for where I am at at this moment? It's truly a pleasant little store. The lady seemed a little weirded out when my brother and I first walked in. We were in Manchester for the night, on our way back to NY from a week in Maine. She looked at us like....hmm I dunno, don't wanna say anything mean bc she wasn't mean lol, she just looked at us ... weirdly lol. Not sure how else to put it. As our visit went on she ended up being very nice. I just hope she didn't think we were in there to like...steal a couple pieces of candy hahaha. I mean, we aren't 10 years old anymore lol. She then went on to tell us about the store and how all the candy is made there (pretty sure that's what she said). I just remember thinking....how wonderful that this stuff isn't imported from places like...ugh China! They have everything! Every possible kind of candy you can imagine...she has it. She gave us a free sample and it was amazing! There are few great candy shoppes in Manchester. This one is definitely one of them. Prices are a little...high. Just a heads up if you go here. Couple things to consider as to why tho... 1) it's Manchester VT. It's a very bougie little town. Only makes sense most things are pricey there 2) privately owned 3) candy is made on site 4) it's Manchester Vermont lol Should this stop you from going? Absolutely not. Even if you're just in to look...it's worth it. Really a cute store. I hope to return to it one day. Living in Idaho, I rarely make it to Vermont lol. BUT IF I DO! I will for sure head back into Mother Myricks! Thanks for reading, YelperMyrickers! Cheers!

I also bought a peach-raspberry muffin and a blueberry muffin. The muffins looked great but were without ANY flavor. Downright awful, not sure what that was about, but the chocolates were very good. I don't think they were quite as good as Lake Champlain chocolates, but they were a close second. I always appreciate the freshness factor (in addition to flavor), so it mattered that the orange peel and apricots were very fresh. If we are ever in the area, I'd come back here for sure, but I'd stick with the chocolates only. No more baked goods !

Their chocolates are made right here on site…read more Every morning, the solid chocolate is melted 100 pounds at a time in an antique copper kettle, tempered, and prepped to become a dizzying assortment of chocolates. Think  handmade creams, truffles, mints, cordials, butter-crunch, caramels, nut clusters, turtles, chocolate covered orange peel, ginger, apricots and pretzels. Want more? How about fudge, white chocolate, barks, clusters, pops, and sugar free chocolates. We paid $38.22 for a bagful of goodies - 2 boxes of hand picked chocolates (sugar free and high test), a piece of bark, a chocolate bar, and two turkey shaped chocolate pops for the grand kiddos. A small gift bag of nonpareils was  tossed in gratis. The store is quite large, so walking around and checking out the goods is quite a fun experience. The only disappointment we had was that their chocolate apple season just ended the week before.
