    a box of chocolates
    Andrea M.

    Yum. Lots of choices. We had fudge too and chocolate covered pretzels . Nice couple. Average pricing for specialty chocolates. Very clean

    The Sweet Legacy Gourmet is a bakery that has been around for more than 25 years and is family-owned. Their stand inside the Bird in Hand Farmer's Market (located literally diagonally from the entrance) has a nicely-displayed spread of cookies, fudge,hand-dipped marshmallow, caramel apples, and recipe-in-a-jar. I tried some of their fudge, the Apple Harvest, which seemed to contain bits of apple (but had a golden raisin-like texture to it) - I personally thought it was overly sweet and grainy. They sell it by the large slices, rather than like the other confectioneries that tailor to the amount you want per lb. Service was nice, but a little intrusive, as we wanted some more time to look at each of their offerings; felt a little too pressured to purchase something! +grainy fudge +family-owned

Also a pretty incredible soda wall in the back of unique and novelty flavors. Unfortunately the soda is not only on the back wall, but on the bottom shelves all along the back of the store. My 4 year old accidentally bumped into one as she was walking and it fell, didn't break, but the top came off and spilled. I jokingly said she owed me as in now had to pay for that bottle as I assumed they would simply write it off like most businesses would when there's an accidental break. Instead one of the workers simply said "yeah you do!" in an extremely entitled and rude manner. Perhaps she was an owner, I have no idea. She disappeared and we never saw her again. We were them forced to pay for the soda. We were discounted 50% but it's still ridiculous. Maybe don't put bottles on the bottom shelf where little kids can easily bump into them. Especially in a CANDY STORE WHERE YOUR MAIN AUDIENCE IS KIDS. The worker did apologize for having to charge us, but she apparently texted the owners and was told to do so...

    Julius Sturgis Pretzel Bakery is a historic pretzel bakery that opened in Lititz, Pennsylvania in…read more1861. It was founded by baker Julius Sturgis. During the 1850s, Sturgis worked as an apprentice bread baker. There are a number of variations of the origin story, but the most popular one seems to be that Sturgis was preparing a batch of soft sourdough pretzels and accidentally double baked them due to the summer heat. This "happy accident" resulted in dried-out pretzels. The head baker felt that no one would want them, but it gave Sturgis an idea to exclusively produce and sell crispy pretzels. By 1861, Sturgis had purchased a historic stone house and added a pretzel bakery in the back. Sturgis' brand of crispy pretzels soon became a big hit. He would continue to operate the business alongside his family for several years. The Sturgis Family is still in the pretzel business to this day. His grandson Marriott "Tom" Sturgis founded Tom Sturgis Pretzels in Reading in 1946. Julius Sturgis Pretzel Bakery is the oldest commercial pretzel bakery in the United States. The current president and majority owner is Tim Snyder, uncle of current Tom Sturgis Pretzels owner Bruce Sturgis. My family and I recently visited Julius Sturgis Pretzel Bakery while we were traveling through Pennsylvania's Lancaster County. The area may be known for its rich Pennsylvania Dutch culture, but it's also known for its rich pretzel history and production. It just so happens that pretzels are my favorite snack! We arrived at the bakery just minutes after it opened for the day and signed up to take a tour. Participants have the opportunity to roll their hands in dough and make their own hand-made pretzels, just like workers did in the late 19th century. Our guide showed us all of the various tools of the trade from that period, but the highlight was seeing the original brick ovens. At the conclusion of the tour, participants were all given a complimentary bag of Tom Sturgis "Little Ones" pretzels. Afterwards, we headed into the retail shop which was stocked with various Julius Sturgis and Tom Sturgis pretzel products. Some of the varieties that we purchased for the road included "Little Cheesers" and "Honey Mustard". We also bought some freshly baked soft pretzels, which tasted out of this world! If you love pretzels then we highly recommend a visit to the Julius Sturgis Pretzel Bakery!

At the end, they give you a small bag of hard pretzels. The storytelling was good and the workers were friendly, but I wasn't too impressed. It's a small, cramped space, and I'd recommend the tour for kids 8 and up. Our group had several kids ages 2-5, with lots of crying and screaming, making it hard to hear and very difficult for the storyteller. You can reserve your tour online, and they start on time, so keep that in mind. There is street parking and a few spots in the back, and we had no trouble finding a spot. There's a gift shop available and fjeu also sell soft pretzels and other snacks. Overall, it's a cute and cheap activity if you have an extra 20-30 minutes.

It's scanning rows of ostentatious flavors is where they lost me. Hear me out. I truly believe that the beauty of this world is in its diversity. There are many people who love a flavored coffee with "fun" flavors and over-the-top lattes with too much whipped cream on top, but that's not my jam. In my opinion, a quality coffee shop is simple and leads with espresso brewed really well where the taste of coffee shines through. Whipped cream, Black Forest Cake, and Cabin Fever mask coffee in my opinion, but many would and should disagree with me. To prove my point, I ordered an iced Aztec latte. I have a sweet tooth, but this was way too sweet. I literally couldn't taste the coffee through all the noise. Again, some people may love this place if flavored coffee is your thing. It's just not mine, so I'll pass. That said, the service was great! Everyone I interacted with was helpful. If you're reading this, go and support them!
