I love, love, LOVE all the stuff from here! All the candies and ice cream are amazing, and it holds a special place in my heart especially being apart of the family and growing up having this for dessert all the time! But the one thing I absolutely hate about the online ordering and shipping is the $50-$60 shipping fee you’re charged just to ship one box of freaking chocolates!! Talk about outrageous! It’s always so good and amazing to make a stop when I go back to visit Ohio or when someone comes down to visit me and I get some candy, but ordering online? You can forget it.

Prices are fair, and the ice cream has a good flavor while being a bit too heavy on the "cream" side of things. If you're looking to give gifts or show friends and family the local flavor, this is the place to go.
Loss of one star for the unwarranted proselytizing and for the the general okay-ness of...
