Recall Mom 1st entered a Nursing Home and an aide helped her (as she was confused when 1st there). Mom asked me to get the aide a box of chocolates from Mrs Nelson ($10 box) for helping her. That was years ago ... and I always marvel that they are still that price! Our daughter lives now in NC and I send chocolate (large and small boxes) from Mrs Nelson to her at the Holidays ... all her friends (and a friend's daughter) absolutely love them!!! My daughter's fav (besides the chocolate) is the "black jelly beans" ... while hubby enjoys the "colored jelly beans." And everyone is always so friendly every time I visit!!!

They are located in a small-ish strip mall, and parking (private lot) was right outside. They have a variety of interesting sodas, candy, in-house chocolates, and fudge. My son got some Freeze dried skittles (is this an East coast thing?) and we bought some chocolates, pre-packaged fudge, and old-timey candy. Prices were very fair and the fudge (Valley fudge and candy) that I bought was delightful (peppermint!). I am not from the area, but I would revisit the next time I'm in town.

They put together some great looking platters full of an assortment of chocolates and some extra bark on the side. They even helped carry everything to my car. To say that my work was impressed with what we got is an understatement. My residents LOVED the chocolates and are still talking about how delicious everything was 3 days later! Plus, I was able to get some extra chocolates for my wife while I was waiting on the finishing touches to my work order. I'll happily suggest the Chocolate Truffle to anyone looking for delicious chocolates and wonderful service!

In the meantime, it is wonderful to have safe options.
