Jeppi Nut & Candy Co. — Attraction in Timonium

My grandmother introduced me to Jeppi nut and Candy. When they were Located on Gay Street, Baltimore Maryland we used to catch the street car down to gay Street old town mall back then. She would purchase what was called Christmas candy or Hard candy from them. Peanuts, Almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts, pecans, and many other varieties of nuts and candies, they sold. And a lot of other confectionaries, fresh, roasted peanuts, when you walked Up to the building you could smell the hot roasted peanuts, and Mini other varieties of roasted nuts. They even did hot Roasted Chestnut During those times…. if I’m not mistaken, they were the same vendors that used to do the hot peanuts and chestnuts outside of Lexington market during that time. We also used to supply the peanuts for the animals at the Baltimore Maryland zoo for the animals the original owner don’t recall his name at this time but I can see his face as if it was yesterday he brought a very beautiful resource to Maryland thank you JEPPI Nut and candy. For the decades of service.

I also got the impression she didn't quite understand me. I wound up speaking to no one. Bought nothing and left. Worst experience ever at Jeppi which sucks but the new people are ...not very friendly. Oh well, have y'all been to the new store...

Enjoyed Jeppi nuts when they were just in Baltimore. Love now they are in Timonium. Steady clientele in and out less than 1 week before Xmas. I got an assortment of things to make my own hostess basket to take to a families house for the holidays. Would of like to have seen pre made holiday baskets or at least baskets for sale. They only had holiday tins for sale and approx $5.99 for the empty tin (little pricey I thought since Wal-Mart and Dollar Tree have similar for at least 1/2 that price). Thought prices for specific nut varieties on chalkboard behind register was very hard to read. Also surprised that they didn't promote or have any signage about gift certificates for...
