TBE candied apples, taffy apples, etc. I had em at some place in Crystal Lake and am still to make the pilgrimage to Richmond BUFU to the OG Anderson's, but this Barrington location has been there since before covid. Long live chocolate. Expensive AF, but worth it. Life changing really like the first cathode ray TV, MP3s, 4D movies, or being with me. Once you do it, your life is changed. No more taffy apples anywhere else but from here. Hand made. THEY ONLY HAVE THEM APPLES DURING FALL THO. Chocolate covered, taffy, etc.

If you are anywhere near Barrington in Lake County make it a point to stop in here. The staff is…read morefriendly, they have a large selection of chocolates, and the quality of chocolate used here is top of the line. Their specialty are their candy bars, which is really a misnomer because they are essentially two or more truffles and coated nuts and such all glommed together into a variation of a large turtle. They are far better than any candy bar I have ever eaten. I visit the area two or three times a year from L.A. and always bring my family See's chocolates, which are excellent. The chocolate at Anderson's however makes See's look like Russell Stover--and now I have to bring chocolate from here to California when I visit--it's that good. Their main store is up near the Wisconsin border if you happen to be up that way.

Little small but mighty! They were so kind and let us know what was popular and the deals they had going on for the strawberry festival. It look like family working there because a kid was working the chocolate case and parents were handling the checkout. They were so kind and even cracking a few jokes. We got some butter toffee, toffee pretzels and chocolate covered strawberries. All soo good!! The strawberries were so fresh!

I've learned of this place from my realtor, of all people. When she brought a box of donuts from…read moreMorkes, we knew the place had to have solid mission and pride for their products. My wife and I had always wanted to visit them ever since then and we finally did after about 10 months. The place was small and charming with lots of neeat chocolate creations, as one would expect. We sampled a couple different chocolate pieces and as far as I can tell, they were good. I say that only because I'm not a huge chocolate person, and I don't have a huge gauge on what's good vs great. Since our main purpose of the visit was for donuts, we went ahead and orderes half dozen "premium" donuts. Turns out, the box that was gifted to us was a custom mix of their premium selections, which are fancier donut creations that require a bit more finesse and efforts for them to create. Apparently, you need to order ahead if you want to have a good mix of a dozen, which we didn't know. So we ended up picking from the available ones. They were still a good variety. I don't actively seek out donuts, but if I craved one, I'd definitely seek out Morkes.

Stopped by Morkes this morning to pick up a couple of donuts. Here are my thots:…read more --Surprised by the selection of donuts, probably a dozen to 15 different kinds to choose from. --They also have a mammoth selection of chocolates, but we stuck with the donuts today. --I ordered the apple cider donut, dipped in cinnamon sugar.

The crushed nut ones are nutty and flavorful, but not overly oily like what you'd expect with western peanut butter. And the red candies were chewy and lightly sweet and sour.
