  Old school, iconic St.Paul candy shop. Delicious candy a lot of which is made on site. I always get the melty mints and my family loves the orange slices. They are also renowned for their delicious caramels as well. Great spot for gifts or to get your sweet tooth fix! I went into the shop the other day looking for peanut brittle. They advised that they had run out, but that a fresh batch would be ready by 4pm. The service is impeccable and they are able to pack for shipping as well.

  Regina’s Candies — The Best Chocolate Shop in St. Paul, Minnesota Regina’s Candies is, without question, the best chocolate you’ll find in Minnesota — especially here in Saint Paul. I’ve been coming to Regina’s for over a decade, and nothing else compares. If you go, you have to try the melt-away chocolate caramels. They are my absolute favorite. I’m a dark-chocolate person, but their milk chocolate is just as incredible — rich, smooth, and crafted perfectly. Walking into Regina’s is an experience on its own. You get hit instantly with that warm, nostalgic scent of chocolate, caramel, and sugar — it’s honestly uplifting. The shop has this classic, family-run feel that makes you want to slow down, browse every shelf, and take it all in. There’s always some specialty chocolate item I’ve never seen before, and I inevitably end up buying way more than I planned… every single time. I tell myself I shouldn’t come back because I have no self-control in that store — and then I’m back again a month later. Every time. If you’re looking for handmade chocolates, caramel, seasonal treats, gift boxes, or just a place that feels like authentic Minnesota tradition, Regina’s Candies is it. I truly couldn’t recommend them more.

  I'm a GenXer, and feel like I grew up in the golden age of candy. I am a big fan of chocolate covered creams, and they've been disappearing from candy shops (well, the candy shops have been disappearing too!) so I was thrilled to discover Regina's candy! They seem to have every possible flavor of creams, and I'm still trying them all out. The chocolate they use to enrobe them (I always get dark) is top notch, and always has a perfect "snap." I took one star off because the cream texture hasn't been consistent. Sometimes it's just the right kind of softness, sometimes it's stiffer and harder. I know sugar can be temperamental, but if they could dial that in, it would be amazing! Another treat I found there is the sponge candy (sometimes called honeycomb candy). This is seriously the best sponge candy I've ever had. Again, the chocolate is perfect, but the candy inside has the perfect amount of "flake" to it (IYKYK). I'm looking forward to trying out their plethora of other treats. And the service is always friendly too.

  This place is a true gem. The staff is so welcoming and friendly. It was my first time in this candy shop. I love these neighborhood old school candy shops. The staff said this shop has been going since 1929 ( third generation) candy makers. Amazing! I will be back for Christmas candy!
