Recently we visited Columbia State Historic Park. It's an amazing place that has much to recommend it for a visit, but the best part of all (to weak-willed me, anyhow) are the two sweet shops. The rich smell of good chocolate... the nostalgia of old-fashioned candies... we couldn't help but get a few things.
I regret not trying these (and will, next time!):
The fruit jellies were magnificent and bursting with flavour. YUM.
Hard at work chocolate-dipping by hand.
Peanut brittle setting in the candy kitchen.
I *want* that chocolate shop. :-D
ReplyDeleteSome of those chocolates look as if they have the capacity to induce double vision and descent into baby talk just by inhaling the scent. Oh to spend a night accidentally locked in that shop ... muhahahaha ...
Visit me in Steamboat and you get treated to Fuzziwigs :-)
