When I say this store has a bit of everything, I really do mean that. When you walk in there's plenty to immediately catch your eye, from the seasonal display to the kitschy decor, then further back to the chocolate display and candy wall sold by weight like a general store. Plus so many fun shirts, like an entire wall of them! And socks; I was suckered in by all the silly socks. The pricing was a little high on some things, kind of leaning into the tourist gift shop type of pricing, but the variety was endless, so this could be a great spot to do some gift shopping even as a local.

When you walk in, your eyes just light up with the vast assortment of candy. The chocolate strawberries, jelly rings are terrific! I myself being a coffee drinker am partial to the coffee bean dipped in dark chocolate. Between the chocolate and caffeine, it keeps me going during the day. Store is located next door to a jewelry store. Don't bother buying candy off the shelves at a grocery store or big box stores. Who knows how old they are. Try it, you'll love it!

I asked how much for a square of fudge, the woman says they weigh it, but that if I just wanted one it would be "quarters" because it would be so light.

Hear me: I have no problem paying for fudge for $5 a square if it's too little of a quantity. But how dare you LIE and whisper. Doesn't matter how the fudge tastes if that is the last thing your customer will remember. Will never return.

We had some time to wander around and saw a sign for Saratoga Candy that pointed down a side street. Probably the cheapest and oldest marketing tool you can use, but it was very effective. Inside this charming shop there was a little of everything from vintage candies, gift baskets, sugary options, fudge and all things chocolate. We snapped up a little of everything but bought heavy in chocolate. So far everything was delicious and very high quality. I definitely recommend you spot when you are in the area.

Friendly staff and service... you can sample the flavors before purchasing in case. Decide on one scoop or two, can't go wrong with 2 flavors. They also sell other treats as well besides ice cream... popcorn, cookies, beverages, etc. There are few tables and seat outside to sit and enjoy your treat as well. Otherwise, take it and go. Glad to have come across Nina's as we were walking around after dinner. Will come back another time to try more flavors.

I finally noticed it and stopped in specifically to see if I can find Dubai Chocolate, and not only do they have yummy and rich but smooth chocolates, they have ice cream cones, coffee, hot chocolate, milkshakes, etc. Upon entering we were instantly greeted with a free sample/ truffle. At first thought it was a bit chaotic with a lot of customers everywhere in the small area filling bags of chocolates, but there was an employee standing by ready to assist. I asked for help, and he was very kind explaining the process and letting me know the special deals for the day. Excellent customer service all the way to the checkout! Ended up with a good deal on loads of Truffles in a world of different flavors with 5 more free truffles for signing up for their rewards program at checkout. Tried the ice cream cone with hazelnut syrup, caramel milkshake, and hot chocolate made with truffle flavor of my choice. So good! Will definitely stop here every time I am shopping at The Outlets in Lake George from now on. Perfect for an ice cream cone when it's warm, and coffee or hot chocolate in winter.

Located in Manchester VT a very homey little candy shop…read more You walk into this place in Manchester and just kinda think...why does this store fit perfectly for where I am at at this moment? It's truly a pleasant little store. The lady seemed a little weirded out when my brother and I first walked in. We were in Manchester for the night, on our way back to NY from a week in Maine. She looked at us like....hmm I dunno, don't wanna say anything mean bc she wasn't mean lol, she just looked at us ... weirdly lol. Not sure how else to put it. As our visit went on she ended up being very nice. I just hope she didn't think we were in there to like...steal a couple pieces of candy hahaha. I mean, we aren't 10 years old anymore lol. She then went on to tell us about the store and how all the candy is made there (pretty sure that's what she said). I just remember thinking....how wonderful that this stuff isn't imported from places like...ugh China! They have everything! Every possible kind of candy you can imagine...she has it. She gave us a free sample and it was amazing! There are few great candy shoppes in Manchester. This one is definitely one of them. Prices are a little...high. Just a heads up if you go here. Couple things to consider as to why tho... 1) it's Manchester VT. It's a very bougie little town. Only makes sense most things are pricey there 2) privately owned 3) candy is made on site 4) it's Manchester Vermont lol Should this stop you from going? Absolutely not. Even if you're just in to look...it's worth it. Really a cute store. I hope to return to it one day. Living in Idaho, I rarely make it to Vermont lol. BUT IF I DO! I will for sure head back into Mother Myricks! Thanks for reading, YelperMyrickers! Cheers!

I also bought a peach-raspberry muffin and a blueberry muffin. The muffins looked great but were without ANY flavor. Downright awful, not sure what that was about, but the chocolates were very good. I don't think they were quite as good as Lake Champlain chocolates, but they were a close second. I always appreciate the freshness factor (in addition to flavor), so it mattered that the orange peel and apricots were very fresh. If we are ever in the area, I'd come back here for sure, but I'd stick with the chocolates only. No more baked goods !

Our friends that visit us regularly from out of town are somewhat obsessed with historical sites,…read moreghost tours..... and food. Especially chocolate. What could be better than to take a tour at this fabulous chocolate shop about an hour north of Saratoga Springs? We paid for the ghost tour and chocolate making experience ahead of time and it turned out that we were the only ones there, so it was a private event for us. Score!! The ghost stories and "tour" were fun and interesting. FYI- there's not really any walking around during the tour; there's seating in a small section of the house to hear about the different sightings and such. Making the chocolate ghost molds were a lot of fun and buying large quantities of Barkeaters absolutely delicious chocolates were perhaps the best part of the whole experience. If you're interested in trying something different, one of the flavors of chocolate "barks" is a chili lime dark chocolate. I think that one is my absolute favorite with a close second being the espresso dark chocolate. The chili lime starts with the deep chocolate flavor and lime....followed by a perfect buzz of chili. It's dangerously addictive. There are lots of different flavors of truffles (we snagged a box of 24 assorted!) and chocolate bars that are all absolutely wonderful. Super nice staff/owners.... I can see this would be a great place to visit in the fall and closer to Halloween.

While I was in Mechanicville very recently, I decided to check out Park Avenue Confectionary to pick up a box of gourmet truffles for MOI- I heart truffles! I deserve a nice treat every now and then. This little chocolate and confectionary shop stocks homemade chocolates and candies including chocolate bars (white, milk chocolate, dark, etc), lollipops, special themes (molded chocolates), bagged chocolate covered candies, chocolate covered pretzels, dgift boxes, and baskets. They also carry sugar free varieties too. The prices here are very fair: $9.95/lb for chocolates and $14.95/lb for truffles. I've been to other chocolate shops near my home,, some of which charge almost double. The owner was very accomodating in helping me to customize and choose an assortment of truffles (24 pieces/12 oz box). There were around 20 choices of truffles to choose from, and I was pointing out what I wanted from outside the glass case. This was like choosing what kinds of donuts I wanted for an assortment (give me one glazed, two jelly, three cruellers, etc), you get the idea. The total came out to just under $14 with tax. I brought the box of truffles into work for ME to indulge on while I was crunching numbers and calculations at my desk (my coworkers are on their New Year's diet, hehe). Each of the truffles tasted very fresh and had a nice hard shell outside with creamy and rich ganache inside. The hazelnut was my favorite. The truffles went well with my daily cup of Starbucks Coffee. It took me the whole week to finish the box, munching on a few pieces each day. What a sweet week! Major credit cards accepted (including AMEX). CLOSED on Sundays

I need to go back soon and get some treats for my family. Great place to go for holiday treats as they always have something festive for the next holiday. I hope they are open for many, many years to come! Cannot say enough good things about this wonderful shop. I would much rather support a local business first. Small business is very important to the economy and I appreciate all of the hard work these amazing people put in to build their business and keeping it active everyday, especially in these trying pandemic times. It can be scary to even go in stores but this one feels very safe to me. I saw their name on the Grubhub app, too! Would love to try chocolate delivery!! Will have to check that out. :-)
