Disappointing Experience at Regina’s Candy Shop

It’s rare to walk away from a candy shop feeling let down, but Regina’s Candy Shop unfortunately managed to do just that. While the staff were friendly, they openly complained about the owner’s refusal to invest in a freeze dryer, which didn’t exactly add to the experience.

I have purchased candy at this store and chocolates to the tune of hundreds of dollars over several years. I will never go back and I will spread the word to friends and family to not shop here...
