I always buy the chunk milk chocolate, originally to eat with cashews (my version of chocolate covered cashews), but now I just chop it into smaller pieces and eat it as is. Absolutely delicious.

Huge selection of gifts, including some fun Schitt's Creek stuff and Golden Girls, and also lots of candy and chocolate. They had Coffee Crisp which surprised me, it's a Canadian chocolate bar and I've never seen it outside of Canada. They are still requiring masks as of right now (6/13/21) which was nice, also. Only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that it's a bit pricey - most of the gifts I saw were $9.99 and up, for small things, and they had some Sanders one-piece chocolates for 75c (I've seen them 25-50c in other stores). Otherwise, this was a fun store to browse and I will be back at some point.

This hurts to write. This might be the hardest review I'll ever write, all because Elwin is…read moregenuinely one of the sweetest people in all of Berkley. And also because of my anticipation, and inevitable disappointment. I have been staring at this exact place for over 8 years of my life, and never got to go. School always started and ended from 7:00am to 3:30pm, which also happens to be the opening and closing times of Elwin's bakery. And finally, on a half day and on my way to work, I stopped in a grabbed what I had time for. I got a Raspberry White Chocolate scone, and a Salted Caramel scone with a little drizzle of vanilla frosting. When I walked in, Elwin greeted me incredible warm, and we had a nice conversation about working in the service industry, despite our completely different tastes. Pizza and sweet scones? Not a HUGE difference, obviously. But this isn't about me, it's about beautiful Elwin. Oh Elwin I love you. I took them to work with me, and I will be 100% honest with you. They were LACKING in MULTIPLE flavor profiles. First of all, the "Raspberry" White Chocolate scone might've been the inspiration for those 1% sugar cereals our parents got us as a kid to "eat healthier". I would be shocked to find out this had any type of berry in it, let alone the Popeye's biscuit type of texture. It's like biting into a beachfront, and not in a good way. I'm trying to imply it's as dry as sand. The Salted Caramel one with the drizzle on it was much better though. But I will admit I really don't taste any of these flavors, at all. I mostly just taste biscuit bread with a little bit of a buttery kick, and I HATE things that are too dry, it ruins the whole experience. And sadly, these are some of the driest scones I've ever had before. Maybe I don't understand the food, hopefully when I get older. Not disrespect to Elwin, or my grandma (of course). One of the most beautiful and special places in all of Berkley in my opinion. I beg of you to AT LEAST try it, regardless of what I have to say about it. Elwin is truly a great guy and he deserves your money, your respect, and your opinion. If you are ever in Berkley in the morning and trying to get a cup of coffee and a bone-scone, come on over to Elwin & Co. It's not terrible. 3/5
