The Story

This magical shop delights with the rich aroma of chocolate upon entry. Indulge in exquisite sea salt caramels or an espresso dark chocolate bar, just like a visitor discovered. Beyond the confectionery, some reviews also hint at a working soda shop and Penn State Creamery ice cream, making it a Willy Wonka-esque experience for those seeking more than just chocolate.

    Stopped in to pick up assorted boxes of chocolates for gifts. It smells deliciously of choclate when you enter. Nice young man working the counter. I tried the sea salt caramel while waiting and it was excellent. They also have a great espresso dark chocolate bar. Prices are more than fair for the quality. The shop has a vintage feel and some lovely old things & photos to look at while you wait. Note: The photos here are from their old location on Water St. There is no ice cream at this location that I saw.

    You cannot go wrong at this amazing magical place. Penn State Creamery Ice Cream, a real working soda shop and an amazing chocolate factory. Willy Wonka would be impressed. I am so excited to have found this place. Worth your time if you enjoy old fashioned historic soda bar and some of the very best ice cream made in Pennsylvania.

    Truly the most wonderful chocolate experience here in Lancaster. Imane’s delicacy when selecting assortments is second to none.

    I have bought chocolate covered cherries from here since 1986. The ones I bought here this year were the most sloppily made candy I ever saw. Looks like a 2nd grader who needs glasses made them. The tastes ok but looked terrible
