My willpower is weak when I pass...

I especially enjoy their mint chip ice cream with real chocolate chunks in a freshly made waffle cone. So much so that I didn't even capture it on camera as I was in the moment. I love the rich and creamy texture and its intense flavor. There is nothing that I don't like about Kilwins. Good quality treats are a must have in my book!

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.

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.

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.

My family and I have been loyal customers of Krause's Homemade Candy for many years. We've bought…read morechocolates for ourselves, holidays, and gifts, and visiting Krause's has always been a tradition whenever I returned to New York after living in Florida. In fact, it was the very first stop my husband and I made because I couldn't wait to enjoy my favorite chocolates again. Unfortunately, this visit was incredibly disappointing. The first thing I noticed was the new logo and packaging. While I know businesses evolve, the new design loses the classic, elegant feel that made Krause's so special and instead looks much more generic. More importantly, the chocolates themselves are not the same. Many of the pieces are noticeably smaller than they used to be, and the chocolate tastes different. Several pieces even had bloom, which affected both their appearance and texture. I purchased a variety of chocolates, including individual pieces from the display case, chocolate bars, and peppermint patties, and every product seemed to reflect a decline in quality. To make matters worse, many of my longtime favorite pieces were no longer available. I've happily recommended Krause's for years because it consistently offered some of the best homemade chocolates in the Capital Region. This time, however, I left feeling disappointed and honestly saddened. I truly hope the owners will consider returning to the quality, recipes, and traditions that built Krause's outstanding reputation, because many longtime customers remember how exceptional their chocolates used to be.

(Certainly a lucky neighborhood) It looks small from the street but once you walk in, it opens up to a sizable store. We were greeted by a friendly staff member, he took the time to describe their cheese selection and the other things going on in the shop. He then pivoted to giving us tons of help selecting the right cheese. We sampled a couple of things and then he dialed in three choices for us to buy. (With an assist from another customer that insisted that we would love the Delice de Bourgogne) Prices were reasonable enough for the quality. We added some gourmet crackers that were neutral enough to not overpower the cheese. The next day, we made the three cheeses the focus of our lunch. The Delice de Bourgogne was the star of the show, a creamy, earthy, and savory masterpiece. The two year aged Gouda and creamy blue cheese were delightful as well! Truly glad that we walked into The Cheese Traveler!
