Rickeldoris Candy & Popcorn Co — Attraction in Jerome

Stopped in to Rickeldoris Candy & Popcorn Co. the other day & was highly disappointed.

We picked up 3 truffles & a bag of candied nuts. The associate had already packaged our $2.97 lovely looking truffles when I had then inquired about which nuts were contained in the hand packaged baggies. Because the baggies were hand packaged rather than factory prepackaged I naively assumed that they were made in house or at least small batch.

The cashier wasn't sure so brought out a binder with ingredients. I again naively assumed that these were recipes or at least ingredient lists based off of their recipes. No. Not even close. These were the ingredients cut off the shipping boxes. They couldn't find the correct ingredient list & they had to ask the lady making the kettle corn in the back & she went to the stockroom & brought out a FULL CARTON of unopened candied nuts to read the ingredients. Are you F'ing kidding me?? At least be discreet about it if you're going to upcharge a 1/4 filled sandwich baggie of candied nuts & sell for ~$4!

The nuts were decent all things considered, but knowing that most everything else was prepackaged & up-charged, the fact that the $4 truffles were waxy & mediocre at best, it's safe to say that these were not handmade either but rather mass produced in some factory, too. Definitely NOT worth $3 each.

Save your money & go somewhere else. Even See's Candies mass produced candies are better than this AND...

My wife & I celebrated our 51st wedding Anniversary Sunday & spent a couple days in Flagstaff. We decided to take the "back way home" so we could drive through Sedona & Jerome. We stopped at your shop & bought a bag of Caramel corn & assorted candy for the grand kids. We saw a couple signs in the store that indicated if we bought 4 bags of Jelly Belly beans we would receive a free "Jelly Belly" bucket, which we did. We were disappointed that when we checked out she said "we are all out!" We asked if we would receive the bucket on our next trip to Jerome & the cashier sad it would be no problem! Hopefully you will be restocked for our next trip! It may not be until next year! The shop brought back many memories of our favorite candy growing up! The caramel corn was delicious & we nearly finished off the bag on our way home!

What a cute and colorful store- that rainbow-lettered sign caught my eyes. (It's about a 10 minute walk from Jerome Pubic Parking, or there's also some street parking nearby.)

The store seems tiny from the outside, but when you enter, there's quite a bit to see inside. When you first enter, there's pre-packaged assorted gummy candies for $3.75 (quite reasonable) and there's also larger packages of sweets on the side walls. The displays extend further back as well, and def a lot to choose from. There's also more sweets sold at the counter. Checkout was quick and easy, and the cashier was welcoming and friendly. I was pleased with my purchase, as the candy was quite...
