“I stopped by last week and was pleasantly surprised! No need to go to the south side for some treats. The owner was very personable and allowed me to try a few items. Everything looked fresh and was delicious! Grabbed a few pieces of Turkish delight and some smoked nut mix. Will be back again for some coffee!”

“Delicious and friendly
The peanuts are very fragrant and the cut peanuts are crispy
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! ?”
“A great little shop it's very nice inside and they have a great selection of candy that I enjoyed trying and you pick how much you want with little bags. They have a variety of colors, which was perfect because I needed it for a baby shower. Staff was friendly and helpful”
“Nicest place! Really great candy.
The super sweet woman behind the counter gave us my favorite, chocolate dipped orange peel for comparison to a local place where I live. Cora Lee’s is better!
Highly recommended, beautiful candy store.”
“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”

“Sahagian Candy is a confections manufacturer and not a retail store. They manufacture bubblegum, licorice, taffy, caramel corn, sweets, sours and gummies. The major brands are the Yard of Bubblegum and Licorice. They do private label brands and specialty runs for occasions and events! They don't sell direct to consumer, but they do sell to everyone from party planners, gift basket and floral companies, grocery stores to big box stores and major department store chains! If you want to make something really special with candy... it's worth a call to see if they can do it for you!”

8534 W Golf Rd, Niles“I was so happy that I found a Fannie Mae outlet store. As soon as I walked in the door, it brought memories of my grandmother and I visiting the shop by her house in Des Plaines. There’s a wonderful woman named Tina that works there. She was nice enough to show me all the different goodies that they had in the store and the specials for the day. They have a senior discount day, I believe that was Wednesday. They also have AARP discount. And the day I was there if you spent $10 you had a discount on the wonderful chocolate candy bars they have. I purchased a box of turtles and a dark chocolate candy bar. Needless to say, the box of turtles was open before I got home. The shop is very clean and bright! So give yourself a special memory of chocolate and being young. Stop in and say hello to Tina who will be watching over all the wonderful chocolates. Don’t forget to make a list of what your friends like because they will ask you to grab something. I know mine did! Remember holidays are right around the corner! And Tina I promise I’ll be back soon?”
“One of my most favorite candy shops in America. Something about their dark chocolate peanut butter buckets makes me always go back and get more. So many truffle flavors to choose from as well.”

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.”

“Its so nice and cozy in there, and there's a wide variety of candy choices for incredibly cheap. Your able to get multiple pieces of candy for a $1.50.

Kid-friendliness: the owner is a literal sweetheart to any kids. I love her so much.”
“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.”
“It was a wonderful treat to get these amazing fresh chocolates made less than a week from Switzerland. They tasted fresh and as amazing as having one in the mother country.”

835 Michigan Ave #1010, Chicago“This newstand has been here as long as I can remember and is one of the few places in the city that still is a true news stand selling newspapers and magazines. As someone who enjoys magazines and newspapers, I hope they never leave and continue to succeed in business.”
“Excellent customer service! Both women greeted me as I entered amd were very helpful; answered my questions and explained the different Chicago themed packaging. I learned that they are both long term employees with Fannie May, which speaks volumes of the company's culture. Thank you for the sample of sugar free sea salt dark chocolate caramel!”
