Pro Tip - Skip the jars and focus intensely on the bakery creations. They won't last as long as the plaster and clay, but taste oh so much better, and definitely make your day. My sampling of their Brownies, Peanut Butter Cookies, Lemon Iced Petit Four, Pistachio Cookies, and a few more I have forgotten due to sugar rush, was an overwhelming high. All delicious with great taste and texture. Service was exceptional from moment of entry to final goodbyes. The packaging was likewise memorable, as was the flour sugar atmosphere that totally captivated the little kid who still lives within. Five by Five. Fantastic pastry experience.

Not only is the store pristine as well as the product tastes great, it provides jobs for Staten Islanders who have Down Syndrome. The price is very reasonable for the quality. This was my first trip here and they were sold out of all truffles. I heard they are so good they sell out quickly. No worries, I'll be back. I purchased -Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels $5 for about 7 of them. They are so good -Milk Chocolate Coconut bark. I got a small piece for about .50cents. -Milk Chocolate sticky toffee bark. This was dense so it was about $1.50 -Dark chocolate covered graham cracker. So sweet the girl told she couldn't sell them since they didn't come out looking nice, so she gave it time for free. Ugly or not it was delicious and I'm not a dark chocolate fan till this. What a winner, can't wait to come back for the truffles.

You have the option of customizing your own box of cookies/pastries, and they have various box sizes as well.

The staff is helpful and friendly, they always make sure everything is secure and packaged neatly. This inside of the store and display case is clean and organized.

I admittedly am not big on celebrating Valentine's Day, but my family bought a custom chocolate box from here this year and O M G. This is not your basic Russel Stover prepackaged candy. This is the real deal. Absolutely the best assorted box of chocolate I've ever tried (and yes, I tried a bite of each). 1. Their chocolate is amazing, both the milk and dark 2. Their fillings are unique and made with quality ingredients - think real fruit, fun creme flavors, etc 3. The box was beautifully packaged, although I wish it had a card listing on which flavor was which (but the element of surprise was pretty fun) My favorite were the raspberry creme, cherry creme, and one that had a fruit and nut mixture. Again, SO much better than any candy box you'd buy at a large retailer and very much worth every penny. A chocolate box from here is thoughtful and artfully crafted. I might not be able to wait until Valentine's Day 2022 for my next fix!

The best thing about Egger's Ice Cream Parlor on Forest Avenue is its historic presence at that…read morelocation for over 90 years (1932). It is surely a community fixture with generations of families stopping by to celebrate the best things in their lives with homemade ice cream and an assortment of candy in dozens of glass jars along one wall. I admit to stopping in after an epic brunch at a nearby Greek diner, and to being too stuffed to dive into their flavors of the week 'screams. My friend was not as disciplined as I, so she ordered a cup of some chocolate peanut butter which she kvelled over. Apparently, they also had an orange long stringy confection that she wanted for later indulgence. All very cool, but she isn't diabetic. The ambiance of Egger's is definitely mid-twentieth century, and could use a fresh coat of paint to brighten the joint up a bit. Maybe better lighting, too. Otherwise, growing up in the City (Washington Heights) in the same era, this malt shop/candy emporium with long counter and spinners brought fond memories of my childhood flooding back. That, my friends, is always a very good moment. Four Sugary Super Sundae Stars. Those were the days!
