read moreNestled in Montclair Village, this candy shop boasts an appealing selection of sweets and chocolates, often complemented by friendly staff. However, many patrons have expressed frustration over steep prices, particularly for Jelly Belly candies, which can be nearly double the cost at other retailers. While the charming atmosphere and high-quality candies are notable, experiences have been mixed; service has sometimes been marred by unfriendly interactions, and the gelato has been critiqued as overly sweet and unappealing. Despite its charm and potential, visitors may want to weigh the value against higher prices before indulging.
