Been getting Candy Box candy for Christmas for 35 years. Way back when they were on Rt322. I must say its not like it was. This year i got my usual assorted dark chocolate creams. Only they aren't creamy anymore. The lemon,rasberry, orange all taste basically the same. They are dryer they years past. One of the reasons i go there instead of other chocolate candy stores was exactly the consistency of there fruit flavored,butter and mint creams. I hope they change back to there previous recipe. Because this dry powered Whitmans Chocolate recipe is not worth the premium i gladly paid before. I haven't asked how much a pound was in 25 years because the quality was worth whatever they charged. This year im very disappointed. I had a lemon and a reasberry and a orange and couldnt tell the difference. Please! Please! Go back to the old recipe..it made your chocolate one of a kind. And well...

I had no idea chocolate could taste that way. We wouldn't be going back there...

Their creams are liquidy not powdered. As they should be. I like the creams but ive gotten the assorted boxs and every piece is a delight. The only thing i would ask is. A chocolate candy store in Vermont has a 2 inch pepermint patty and raspberry patty thats amazing. I wish they had one too. Maybe they could make them in the future. Id shorely stop in for some. Thanks for the treats at a fair price. You really do get...
