5 Stars: A Peck of Fun and a Barrel of Laughs at Candies By Vletas!
I meant to post this a couple of months about about Vletas helping us out with a fun gag!
If you're looking for a place that pairs delightful sweets with delightful scenes, look no further than Candies By Vletas! Witness a spectacle so hilariously embarrassing, it could only happen in the magical world of confectionery and good-natured pranks. Mitch, the man of the hour, was there in a chicken costume so ludicrously humiliating that it would make a rooster crow in sympathy.
The vibrant yellow feathers, the red leggings hugging his legs, and the oversized chicken feet were just the start. The owner, a maestro of mischief, coaxed Mitch into performing the chicken dance. There he was, amidst the chocolates and giggles of onlookers, flapping and hopping with such comedic gracelessness that it was impossible not to join in the laughter.
But the cherry on top? Mitch was sent on a mission across the street, finally answering the age-old question: "Why did the chicken cross the road?" To get to Candies By Vletas, of course, where the treats are sweet, and the laughs are sweeter.
Thanks to the staff's playful spirit and the owner's impromptu choreography, Mitch's embarrassment was the secret ingredient in a day filled with joy. So here's to Mitch, for being such a good sport; and to Candies By Vletas, for serving up a dose of hilarity with their heavenly candies. Trust me, their treats—and the memories you'll make—will have you coming back for more!
I hear that they would like Mitch to come back again so that he can entertain the store again! I hope...

Located in a beautiful part of historical downtown Abilene, this fantastic little candies shop has some great people making fantastic little candies, chocolates and hand-dipped treats. When you visit, be sure and grab a chocolate covered oreo and a box of chocolate truffles of your choosing from the huge case of truffle selections. I highly recommend the raspberry creme, and mint. Besides the chocolates, their pralines are world famous and they offer the absolute best dipped strawberries...

After touching two doors on the way in I asked to wash my hands and discovered they don't have a restroom or a sink to wash your hands. That is gross! If they don't think it's important that I need to wash my hands before eating how do I know that they feel it's important to wash their hands before making...
