Really cute candy shop with wide selection of candies, pralines, and other sweet treats. I got some of the plain pralines and they were sweet and creamy, very delicious. I also tried some of the caramels and they were very good. This is a great candy shop on Royal St.

Nice selection of chocolates. Love their pralines but they no longer make my favorite - the creole pralines. Their regular pralines are good though - just small.

After a 12 year hiatus we decided to head back to New Orleans. Stopped back in Laura’s to get some Mississippi Mud to bring back for Mother’s Day. Frankly, the store has lost a lot of its appeal since our last visit - Very run of the mill. Also, the Mississippi Mud cost $29.99 / pound and doesn’t even come in a box. Not worth the money.

Sweetness has no place at this establishment. I was on the hunt for some sweet treats for my special someone back home, but instead I was faced with the sourpussed woman with blonde hair and a red sweater DEMANDING I shut her front door that was ajar upon my arrival. Walking in I was excited to purchase some confections, however this nasty woman only threw salt. I walked out knowing she just wouldn't get why I left. I've read the previous reviews of her place before posting this and it seems it's time for her to throw in the towel.

When I think of Laura’s Chocolates, my mind immediately thinks of the location on Chartres Street. There are also others spread around the City and today I visited the one on Royal Street. This location is a lot newer and slightly larger than my regular. It is also filled with the same delicious chocolate and other treats that the store is known for. Laura’s is a great place to stop for something sweet or for a gift for someone special.

This place is the best. It's fun and has broad selection of confectionery. I usually will stop in just for some dark chocolate turtles but found myself getting Rum Pralines for myself and a box of various chocolates and truffles for a friend. Delicious and fresh made on site also !I noticed the salt water taffy selection in the back this last time that I went. There is even a section for special fruit preserves in jars.This is a great place to stop in if you can't find a gift for somebody just FYI.CJ was so friendly! Not sure if it's the sugar but every time I drop in, the staff is always so happy. Enjoy !

This one was my least favorite out of the three that I visited. They had a nice and sweet lady working that day, but they didn't have the touch available. They only had Rum Pralines available but didn't offer any samples. The pralines were good but incredibly sweet just like the lady working there. I would most likely revisit the other two spots I tried before returning here.

Ugh ate the bag of Orange Slices and waiting to hit the Louisiana turtles. Lol. The tourist in front of me were a bit unsure what to get. I think they were from Mississippi as they kept focusing on the Mississippi mud candy. Or maybe they were a fan of "My cousin Vinny" by the way I wonder how the. Chinese food is here. Anyway the clerk was so sweet to the customers and made them laugh with his explanation of how everything was Sugar Free. He clarified. By saying y'all pay for everything else. But the Sugar is Free. Lol. Guess what they had, chocolate covered Twinkies. Probably the last 8 Twinkie's in the state. I have to admit The candy man song did not go through my head. But there were so many candies. I thought I'd say something about this place as I was in another candy place and the workers were more interested in talking gossip instead of helping me.

LISTEN!!! I've had a whole lot of sweet treats in my life. But never have I EVER had anything so heavenly as the chocolate covered toffee squares and the pecan clusters, and the chocolate covered pretzels and the chocolate covered caramel squares. The place is clean, the service is ok. Check the hours of operation before you go. This will be on the must go/ return list. 3 locations, 2 in or near the French Quarter. They close early.

The best pralines ever! Fresh candy chocolates and excellent customer service definitely recommend for sugar lovers. Her prices are relative to the real ingredients they put in the goodies. A must stop in so good I'm going back before leaving Awlins I recommend Laura's for quality shoppers and chocolate candy lovers. Try for yourself go ahead you be the judge.

Delayed review....Brian was awesome and helped me out really well.... Great tasting pralines as well!!!!! He also explained to me what a real praline should be and that nobody makes them that way anymore because they fall apart too easily. The choices there were good and I got a good variety so I can distribute them to my friends and family after I got back from my trip. I know they had other items in the store and it was well laid out but I came for the Pralines specifically and I would recommend trying Laura's !!!!

The shop was clean & cool on a hot day. My favorite was the triple chocolate dipped Oreo. Mmmm... magical! Otherwise, there was nothing extra-ordinary. It was difficult to hear the cashier bc she didn't speak loud enough, so we had to ask her to repeat herself several times.
