“I had so much fun collaborating with the owner Patrick on a sour candy challenge for our block party. Kids and adults loved it, and I appreciated the creativity and attention to detail that seems built into the customer experience. 10/10 would recommend. Here’s to more fun!!!”
“It was our first time in the store today and the staff was very helpful, patient, offered samples for treats that were being packaged at that time that we had never tried before. It was our first time there but it won't be our last!”
“Aunt Diana's Old Fashioned Fudge (Riverside)
Date of Visit: October 2, 2024
Today, I stopped by Aunt Diana's Old Fashioned Fudge on Riverside, and it was an absolute treat! This small, nostalgic shop is a hidden gem for anyone who loves classic, old-fashioned candies. The moment you walk in, you're greeted by the irresistible aroma of sweets, and the charming décor immediately takes you back to simpler times.
The selection of candies is impressive, offering everything from rich, creamy fudge to freshly made caramel apples, which are a must-try. The caramel was perfectly smooth and buttery, coating crisp, juicy apples that were absolutely delicious. It’s clear that everything is made with care and attention to quality, bringing back that authentic, homemade taste.
What really made my visit special were the two lovely ladies behind the counter. They were not only knowledgeable about the products but also incredibly friendly, making me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. Their genuine warmth and enthusiasm for what they do added a personal touch to the experience that you don’t often find anymore.
Whether you're looking to satisfy a craving for sweets or just want to experience a slice of nostalgia, Aunt Diana's is the perfect spot. I’ll definitely be returning for more of their amazing treats and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone in the area!”
“Worth going to from anywhere!!
Visited their store at 1140 W. Exchange Ave for the first time and I wasn't disappointed. My Store Assistant, Malu, showed me the variety of nuts, candies, gift packed and bulk items as well as novelty candy items from loooong ago (wax mustache, candy cigarettes, etc.). I'm so impressed by the cleanliness of the store, the helpful and pleasant staff. A definite AAA++++ place to go to treat friends and family (and yourself) ? I'll be back !!!”
“Great bulk dry foods, just wish they had nutrition information available for their specific products. (When you look online for info there are often conflicting amounts of calories, carbs, etc. listed for foods & you aren't sure where the foods at the home economist would fall.)”
“Had a hand made Chocolate covered Caramel Apple, and it was one of the best I’ve ever had. I also purchased some peanut butter toffee chocolate in a jar, it’s delicious and the packaging is perfect for gifting. Thank you Annette!!!”
“The absolute best chocolates in the world. A must have!
All fresh ingredients.
All hand made specialties, including house made English toffee (amazing), sea salt caramels, truffles,
ice cream bars, and several popcorn flavors. mmmmm!!!!!
Try once...
You'll be back!
Enjoy!”

Their choc covered strawberries & bananas (usually special order at the Indian Head Park store) are amazing! Can’t say enough nice things about Old Fashioned candies!

“Thank you to the young lady who provided great customer on Father's Day evening. She also went above and beyond by returning the cell phone I left on the counter today. God bless you!!!”
“Ladies that work there are a little impatient it seems,give customers a chance to pick out what they want. I felt rushed but thank goodness I knew what I wanted. But they were still nice”
“These pinatas are absolutely beautiful and extremely durable so they don't break open after 4 kids have had their turn swinging. Customer service is outstanding, very warm and helpful. You have to check them out, you'll be happy you did.”
“My too go place for chocolates. I love to bag myself the flavors I like and in the amount I need.
The store is filled with candy boxes, candy bags all very beautiful and some with themes like birthday weddings, graduations new babies. That set this outlet apart. Those ladies behind the counter will steer you right if you are planning a big party or a celebration.
They have forgotten more about chocolate than I have ever known.”
“Everything you need for Mexican parties! Irons, plates, glasses, spices, candies, piñatas , etc. If you love to entertain and cook, they have your pots for tamales, discs for tripes, and plates for tacos.”
“Big daddy’s is by far the best fudge I’ve ever tasted. My favorite is the chocolate jack. Melt in your mouth creaminess, with the warmth of the whiskey. I give it as gifts and that’s the one everyone wants. Delivers every time!!!”

“This store takes me back to my childhood, the cups and bowls made from barro (clay) like my mom used in her kitchen long ago. A variety of piñatas and "Mexican" candy to fill them. Wooden utensils and large ollas (pots). I will mostlikely return again and again, the owner is helpful & friendly too.”
“Their nuts tasted so good in my mouth. It’s like you don’t even want to swallow, you just want to suck on them. I’m definitely going back and letting their nuts come into my mouth again!”
“Loved the new Maple flavor!
Parking: It's horrible after they open and even worse later in the day, but it was Labor day when we went.
Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, however the elevators weren't working on one side of the building making it impossible to get down to lower levels unless you went to the opposite side of the building like we had to.”
“We ordered Nutstop because we were looking for a healthier snack option for the kids during sports games. We are pleasantly surprised! Nutstop is so good! They have so many options and we have found ourselves eating nutstop for all our snacks! They have so many options. My kids love the chamoy rings and the watermelon slice gummies. We have also been snacking on the healthy nut mix and moms favorite the milk chocolate Almonds. They have great prices and the quantity is alot! Definitely recommend.”
“It’s time for my annual family reunion & I was looking for a piñata for the festival! I google and found a wonderful place Dulcelandia! I am thankful the service was awesome! And a large variety of authentic culture candy! I will return soon”
“Friendly staff that treats you like family! It is rare when I write a review about a place that I actually like! I love Villa's Nuts & Candy. My husband and I were so overwhelmed by all of their products and we kept asking for an additional ounce or half ounce of something, we kept adding to our order, and Maricela was more than nice. I ordered chocolate covered strawberries and tons of nuts!”

“I have been going to Fannie May since I was a teenager. They still sell candy by the piece or cup, and you can mix and match. I love the Dixies, balls of delicious caramel rolled in toasted pecans. The dark chocolate candied citrus peel is great. You can buy a boxed set or create your own. The best part is that their staff are seniors that live near the store. It's like getting candy from your grandparents. They are very sweet, especially Jeanette from Broadview IL. I hope to work there as my third act.”
