Everything is made from scratch, and you'll still find Betty here on occasion, but I believe she's pretty much placed day to day operations with her family. During these uncertain Covid 19 times I hesitate to go out, but I know these people and I know they will exercise every precaution. And it just wouldn't be Easter without their candy! I was the only one in the store but employees on a recent afternoon and they even shared their personal grass for my basket to save me another stop. Cause that's how they treat all their customers...just like family. Had so much fun deliverying to family porches, ringing their doorbell and waving to them when they picked it up. They were all thrilled, just as I am with my own personal stash. When you're craving sweet, this is the place to go!

They offer pastries too, but I don't think they're made there, so they aren't always the freshest. Still, they're decent if you want something small to eat. Overall, it's a nice place to spend an afternoon, relax, and enjoy a coffee.

I was offered a glass of warm rosé since they had none chilled, which I declined. Staff didn't know that a rosé should be chilled. When asked for a Pinot noir, was handed a Pinot Grigio. When asked for the red, was met with a blank stare and told it wouldn't be cold. No kidding, Pinot noir is not meant to be refrigerated. The guy said "I'm not a wine person, sorry I'm not familiar." Also, their claim to fame is Ohio's best buckeye but they were all sold out. The cherry cordial tasted rather stale. Rather disappointing way to kill an afternoon.

There's plenty of seating with plugs available! I got the chai tea latte and although the proportion of milk to concentrate was skewed, it was still good.

Both parking lot and store floor are empty of consumers, why? Previous Rates: Earlier in 2025, reciprocal tariffs added 10%-15% to landed costs, with some specific products facing, or threatening, even higher duties. Impact: The tariffs, combined with high global commodity prices, caused significant disruptions to U.S. chocolate makers (e.g., Hershey), forcing higher retail prices (10-20% increases) and reducing consumer demand. Though federal officials announced the lifting of tariffs in November 2025, some industry members reported a delay in seeing actual cost relief, with some reports noting continued, targeted duties. Severe drought, exacerbated by climate change and heat, is severely impacting West African cocoa production, particularly in Ivory Coast and Ghana, which produce over half the world's cocoa. Widespread dry conditions affect over half of Ivory Coast and two-thirds of Ghana, threatening major harvest seasons. Key affected areas include central and western regions of Ivory Coast. Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast) and Ghana are currently the primary drought-stricken cocoa areas in Africa, together accounting for roughly 60% of global production. As of late March 2026, drought conditions blanket more than half of Côte d'Ivoire and approximately two-thirds of Ghana, significantly threatening the mid-season harvest.
