I loved the fact that you got a free sample when we walked in the door. The smell wafted in the street and was inviting. The prices were a bit steep, but was well worth it. We got to watch them make peanut brittle, with alot of skill ! They had alot of different candies that they made in store.... More

When we visit Savannah we always leave with bear claws and pralines. They give out a sample of fresh made pralines when you walk in the door. If you like Saltwater taffy, they have every flavor imaginable and you can watch them make it while you choose. We love this store! More

I'm not at all fond of sweets myself, but when I brought a couple of boxes of pralines home to share with the catsitter, apartment management, research team, and exercise group, I was assured that they were delicious...even though they were a few days old. I assume they are much better if you can eat them as you are walking... More

It's always fun to stop in and get a free praline sample. The taffy apples are very good. Everything I've had here is good. More

Watching apples being dunked into a vat of hot Caramel and then rolled into a heaping pile of chopped nuts - OMG! The kids Loved watching the taffy being made, taffy being pulled and fudge being poured. Not cheap - but you get the show for free. More

The smell draws you into the store. When you walk in there is someone there cutting the freshly made pecan pralines and they give you a sample! Yummy! More
