“These pinatas are absolutely beautiful and extremely durable so they don't break open after 4 kids have had their turn swinging. Customer service is outstanding, very warm and helpful. You have to check them out, you'll be happy you did.”

The whole store is filled with the aroma of chocolate, which makes you happy”

“This is my favorite candy shop in Chicago for myself and my kids! The staff is very nice to my kids and they are always offering up new fun items. My favorite is the chocolate and peanut butter graham cracker truffles.”
“Worth going to from anywhere!!
Visited their store at 1140 W. Exchange Ave for the first time and I wasn't disappointed. My Store Assistant, Malu, showed me the variety of nuts, candies, gift packed and bulk items as well as novelty candy items from loooong ago (wax mustache, candy cigarettes, etc.). I'm so impressed by the cleanliness of the store, the helpful and pleasant staff. A definite AAA++++ place to go to treat friends and family (and yourself) ? I'll be back !!!”
“Simply put - I just love Royce!
If the Gods wanted chocolate, I would give them the address to Royce. This Japanese chocolatier has managed to marry the art of chocolate making with science and produced some unbelievable chocolate products.
If you love chocolate, you absolutely owe a visit to Royce. Amongst my top preferences are Nama, Bar Collections (strawberry, fruit bar, pistachio) and chocolate coffee beans. I do not have much of a liking for Matcha so have not tried that. The Rum and Raisin bar chocolate is fantastic as well.
Do try this out and you will not regret it t.
PS: Nama needs to be stored in the fridge, yes fridge! ?”
“Huge convention center! Very well maintained, good location near public transportation. I was here for MRO Americas, a big commercial aviation show. Disappointed with restrooms though, only at one location so you have to walk a lot to get there.”
“Had a hand made Chocolate covered Caramel Apple, and it was one of the best I’ve ever had. I also purchased some peanut butter toffee chocolate in a jar, it’s delicious and the packaging is perfect for gifting. Thank you Annette!!!”
“Aunt Diana's Old Fashioned Fudge (Riverside)
Date of Visit: October 2, 2024
Today, I stopped by Aunt Diana's Old Fashioned Fudge on Riverside, and it was an absolute treat! This small, nostalgic shop is a hidden gem for anyone who loves classic, old-fashioned candies. The moment you walk in, you're greeted by the irresistible aroma of sweets, and the charming décor immediately takes you back to simpler times.
The selection of candies is impressive, offering everything from rich, creamy fudge to freshly made caramel apples, which are a must-try. The caramel was perfectly smooth and buttery, coating crisp, juicy apples that were absolutely delicious. It’s clear that everything is made with care and attention to quality, bringing back that authentic, homemade taste.
What really made my visit special were the two lovely ladies behind the counter. They were not only knowledgeable about the products but also incredibly friendly, making me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. Their genuine warmth and enthusiasm for what they do added a personal touch to the experience that you don’t often find anymore.
Whether you're looking to satisfy a craving for sweets or just want to experience a slice of nostalgia, Aunt Diana's is the perfect spot. I’ll definitely be returning for more of their amazing treats and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone in the area!”
“The absolute best chocolates in the world. A must have!
All fresh ingredients.
All hand made specialties, including house made English toffee (amazing), sea salt caramels, truffles,
ice cream bars, and several popcorn flavors. mmmmm!!!!!
Try once...
You'll be back!
Enjoy!”
“Nice store, good service, organized, clean and convenient. Treats are good too. They have a good sugar free selection as well for those who must have sugar free. In the stockyards right off of Pershing. Great little break stop for those who work in the stock yard. I recommend checking it out if you're in the mood for some sweets.”

“This store takes me back to my childhood, the cups and bowls made from barro (clay) like my mom used in her kitchen long ago. A variety of piñatas and "Mexican" candy to fill them. Wooden utensils and large ollas (pots). I will mostlikely return again and again, the owner is helpful & friendly too.”
“Absolutely love Extra spearmint gum sticks. I have been chewing it since it first came out. It truly never loses its flavor or texture. I just wish you guys would use Xylitol or Erythritol as a sweetener instead of Aspartame. That way people can enjoy this fabulous gum while keeping their teeth healthy. Aspartame may be a good sugar replacement,but it causes damage to the tooth enamal and causes digestive issues. Please reconsider your sweetener . Other than that, awesome products
Dietary restrictions: No sugar”
“I had an incredible experience with the hot chocolate here, it's truly mind-blowing! They were out during my first visit, but when I returned the next day, Paul generously offered my friends and me three cups on the house. His kindness made my Chicago trip unforgettable! Highly recommend”
“I went in hoping they would have chocolate rocks, and they had chocolate rocks. They also have a wide variety of different candies, fudge, and ice cream, among other things.”

“My first time going to this location, after it being stationed at this address for years was back on April 15, 2023. The person serving candy on this day was lady by the name of Max. She was nice, hospitable and just a consummate professional. Because the second time I came to this location (ALMOST A WEEK LATER) the same person Max was there to service candy to the customers on this day. I usually visit the location downtown (NORTH MICHIGAN AVENUE) because it is bigger store with more of a variety but if I am ever in need for chocolate in the future this will probably be my go to location seeing is most locations are starting to close, again makes me filled with SADNESS!!”
“My too go place for chocolates. I love to bag myself the flavors I like and in the amount I need.
The store is filled with candy boxes, candy bags all very beautiful and some with themes like birthday weddings, graduations new babies. That set this outlet apart. Those ladies behind the counter will steer you right if you are planning a big party or a celebration.
They have forgotten more about chocolate than I have ever known.”
“Loved the new Maple flavor!
Parking: It's horrible after they open and even worse later in the day, but it was Labor day when we went.
Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, however the elevators weren't working on one side of the building making it impossible to get down to lower levels unless you went to the opposite side of the building like we had to.”
“The store had a variety of Mexican candy, piñatas, games and more! Customer service was awesome! Thanks Chelly for helping with party ideas! I hope to return soon!”

“Love the shop and extensive selection of bourbon. They always have buffalo trace for a decent price. They’re dog friendly and have the most adorable shop dog named Nala:-)”
“I have been going to Fannie May since I was a teenager. They still sell candy by the piece or cup, and you can mix and match. I love the Dixies, balls of delicious caramel rolled in toasted pecans. The dark chocolate candied citrus peel is great. You can buy a boxed set or create your own. The best part is that their staff are seniors that live near the store. It's like getting candy from your grandparents. They are very sweet, especially Jeanette from Broadview IL. I hope to work there as my third act.”
“I love the smells here ! I was Greeted with a smile and a welcome by a lady named Pauline, I believed. Thank you for all your help & the recommendations in the store and in Chicago.”
“Big daddy’s is by far the best fudge I’ve ever tasted. My favorite is the chocolate jack. Melt in your mouth creaminess, with the warmth of the whiskey. I give it as gifts and that’s the one everyone wants. Delivers every time!!!”
“We ordered Nutstop because we were looking for a healthier snack option for the kids during sports games. We are pleasantly surprised! Nutstop is so good! They have so many options and we have found ourselves eating nutstop for all our snacks! They have so many options. My kids love the chamoy rings and the watermelon slice gummies. We have also been snacking on the healthy nut mix and moms favorite the milk chocolate Almonds. They have great prices and the quantity is alot! Definitely recommend.”
