Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think one is ever too old for a candy store. Then again, this…read moreis coming from someone who has http://candyaddict.com/blog/ bookmarked. It's a place where I can let my inner child let loose and a place I can peruse for hours on end. Fuzzywig's Candy Factory was no exception. Conveniently located inside Tuttle Mall, it's my go-to place for a quick pick-me-up, followed by Starbuck's. A fourth of the store is solely devoted to Jelly Bellyism -- a collection I could care less for. Another 1/4 of FCF is strictly for all the different colors of M&M's you never knew existed. And, lastly, the last half of the store. From typical bulk candies (salt water taffy) to sugar-free chocolates (*shudder*) to hard to find candies (Zotz, anyone?) to inedible candy (duh, people, Now and Laters!), you can find just about any type of sugary goods to satisfy your sweet tooth. I personally discovered Chocolate Ice Cubes during my last visit. Let's just say that I pretended I didn't see partially hydrogenated coconut oil as the very first thing listed on the ingredients list and continued on my merry way chomping on these heaven sent chocolates. The fella who worked here was quite sociable, ridiculously patient, and apparently still adjusting to the Columbus scene/folks, as he had just relocated from Long Island not too long ago. Prices are pretty decent, especially for the hard to find selections (~$8/pound or $2.25/quarter of a pound.) I shall be back!

Good candy, great tour!…read more I just wish they allowed you to take photos during the tour. When we were there they were full-speed ahead on making buckeyes. The process looked really similar to the that classic I Love Lucy episode. SPEEEED IT UP A LITTLE!

How could we be so lucky!!!! The staff were so welcoming, kind, and patient. Their whole vibe just gives a sense of calm. The dessert and coffee--just WOW! The the delicate macarons had the perfect intensity of flavor. I also tried the poundcake slice--this was the perfect accompaniment to my coffee. Its texture was reminiscent of the exterior of a French Canelé (which if you know is divine!!) Lastly I got their most popular drink, the Einspänner. This was so delightful. The sweet cream with a touch of cocoa powder made this almost like drinking a tiramisu!! I cannot wait to go back!!

I ended up getting a maple bourbon truffle. It was sweet like maple but did not taste any bourbon. Thats fine though, some places go over board with the bourbon. The lady behind the counter was beyond nice and had a great personality, especially with the girls with us. We walked to this business so I don't know how the parking arrangements are but it is on a busy street.

It is small gourmet grocery store that does not waste space. You can't sell empty space. They have an exceptional variety of goods from Eastern European countries like Hungary, Ukraine, Russia, Poland, etc.. Their breads are house made and when being baked fill the store with the most inviting aroma. I purchased some Russian blintzes $10, Hamantaschen (shortbread cookies w/apricot filling) $4 a box, a stick of Odessa sausage $8, a pistachio cheese roll $6, Dworek mushroom soup $4.29 and some black current compote $12.59. The store is kept tidy and clean. It is open 10am-8pm, seven days a week. The clerk on the day that I visited spoke multiple languages as most Europeans do by necessity.

There were some cute dad and grad ones on our most recent visit, since it's that time of year. Many of the items come in a choice of milk, dark, or white chocolates. The employee was extremely friendly, offering us seconds on very tasty peanut butter cups to try. She was very helpful, answering questions and making us aware of options and available deals. We ended up with a nice variety of goodies - shaped chocolates, chocolate covered marshmallows, jumbo cashews, and more. Everything has been quite tasty, and we got some for gifts and anticipate the recipients will like them too! (Obviously we had to get ourselves some goodies too to check, right?!)

The tour takes us through the popping process, seasoning and flavoring to packaging and shipping. Fascinating process, still with love by hand! And oh, the sampling of unique flavors from Jalapeño cheddar to Lavender Chai and every imaginable flavor in between! The tour takes about an hour with in depth, knowledgeable "poppers" who explain each process. A great experience for all ages. Great favors for kids parties, showers, weddings, tailgating etc!

With a slogan about only selling what they don't eat, I had to try the place. Never heard of them,…read moreeven growing up 60 miles from Columbus, but Esther Price chocolates from Dayton was and still is the bench mark and they sell in major grocery stores for at least 50 miles around Dayton, not in their own stores only. I will say that the sample I got was just as good. Loved the fact I could pick the 1/2 lb. box of milk chocolate I brought from candy cases so I got what I wanted. While EBS loved dark chocolate for its health benefits and "maybe" the taste, I try not to touch that stuff. Taste buds are too precious to kill and calories are worth their weight in gold at my advanced age. Taste is get 5 stars, but the higher price - $10.95 for that 1/2 lb. box took an star off. The stuff in the picture was almost $35 and that included getting the rabbit for only $5. The service was 5 star worthy. I have worked a candy counter at Easter time in a past life, or so long ago it seems like it, and to be that cheerful and helpful says something. Keeping the legacy alive.
