Needless to say I was like a kid in a candy store while in here. Aside from the usual chocolate confections that you can find in here they also offer other candy varieties that mix between nostalgic and old reliable. Some candies are prepackaged before arriving at the store and others are packaged in store. Pricing for the candies are reasonable. Gardners offers other items besides candy. They have some novelty items that are PA-centric and some plush type toys as well. You could kind of also think of this as a variety store where you can come in and piece a gift together for someone you like. I ended up getting my sugar rush on while in here. I grabbed several different items that I had not had in such a long time. I tried some new things, but my favorite was the old reliable peanut butter melt away. Can never go wrong with that. Oh, yeah, by the way, Gardners is owned by Sarris Candies. Don't let that deter you from coming here. Just because it is owned by them did not stop them from making the original recipes.

Last weekend I was at my parents in Altoona. On the coffee table was an intriguing black box of chocolates. I opened the box and saw these adorable perfect little morsals staring up at me. The 1st piece I tried was obvious... A dark chocolate Carmel with a sprinkle of sea salt on top. Ooh, !!!! As I placed it on my tongue, The melting started immediately. Followed by my mouth watering as my brain reacted to the pure joy of the perfect combination of texture and taste of the Dark chocolate . Next came the savory salt that had secretly melted in to the chocolate. Last was the smooooth soft luscious caramel. Perfectly sized with the amount of chocolate and salt. This is the kind of Carmel you don't chew. It just sat in my mouth for few minutes and melted away like it was made to do. Leaving me amazed and satisfied, wondering why I had never had these Chocolates before. Each little chocolate is home made locally in Altoona PA on a small side street. In a small quaint building with a small store front. On my way home to Orangeville, I decided to check out their web sight. It was so simple and user friendly. I decided to order Each of my BFF girl friends a small box as a thank you for them for being in my life. I received my order in 2 days, neatly packaged and perfect. This weekend at a get together, I gave them to my girl friends. As they opened the boxes, the aroma of chocolate lofted through the air. Each 1 tasted a chocolate and the ooooos and awwwws followed. I tell this story because the little shops with great talent go unnoticed, until they are sitting on someone's coffee table. If you have someone special in your life . . . I am telling you they would appreciate this box of perfect chocolates. #wortheverypenny #chocolate #MarCiaschocolate #Valentinesday MarCiaschocolates.com
