A decent little shop with a wide selection of bulk candy and chocolate. The prices seemed fair,…read morebut like any bulk candy store you have a shop smart. The one thing that stood out to me here was their business model. You aren't allowed to fill your own bags. As you browse you are approached and asked if you need a bag. If the answer is yes the helpers fill the bags for you. You tell them what you want and they get it out of the bulk bins. A little different than other bulk candy stores I've been in before where it's more of less self service. From a health and welfare standpoint I can respect this... From a control standpoint I really wasn't a fan. I want to have the bag in my hand. I know roughly how much a pound weighs in my own hand. It's hard to judge the weight when it's in someone else's.

My husband and I were firing off our choices and they somehow managed to keep up with us.

The inside is on the smaller side and they don't have any places to sit. It's more of a get your goods and go type of place. I'm rating this a 4 star bc of the service. I might not be as educated on what makes a truffle a truffle and the reaction I got from asking the staff member that was not the greatest. This can get pricey but I meannnn, it's so good so treat thyself =)

To be honest, we visited twice in one day, for coffee and wine during the day, and then for night cap or two later at night. Had great service both times, awesome friendly staff, live music during the night, and surprisingly good and diverse wine list. Yea, we haven't tried chocolate, and it did look good too, by the way, but the wine, service, and atmosphere were all so nice, that we could do without chocolate!

Open on selective days of the week so be sure to check their hours before heading over. We got lucky! They definitely accommodate to tourist days which worked great for us. We got two different flavors- a half scoop of each. One was cookies and cream and one was a house special they have/make. I can't remember but the pairing was delicious! Perfect in a cake cone. Nice treat for yourself or to share. Plenty for the two of us that night. Not too far of a drive from Galena and easy to find parking.

I have a huge weakness for buttercream frosted cookies, and it was so amazing to finally try them. They are melt in your mouth delicious! They use almond (imitation for anyone with allergies) flavoring in the frosting, which adds a great touch. We recently met the owner at a winter market, and she was super friendly and talked about her products and how long she has been in business. She had so many tasty treats, and I had to stop myself from buying it all. I got some frosted sugar cookies, a frosted chocolate chip cookie, and cinnamon rolls. I barely made it home before I dug in! Everything was delicious, and I can't wait to try more!
