“We ordered chocolates and candies from Old Fashioned Candies Inc. as our year-end gifts for clients, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. They handled everything seamlessly, from helping us choose the right assortment to putting together packaging that looked thoughtful and high-end.
The presentation was beautiful, and the chocolates themselves were outstanding. The white chocolate with peppermint bark was a big hit, along with the other items we selected. You can tell real care goes into both the product quality and how everything is prepared.
Just as important, they delivered exactly what they promised. Everything was completed on schedule and shipped out on time, which made the process completely stress-free for us during a busy time of year. We recommend them to anyone looking for a memorable gift that’s done right.”
“This is the only place to get cheese popcorn! If you like heavily coated cheese popcorn like I do, this is the place to go! I’ve never had anything I didn’t like and the people are so kind here. I love supporting this family owned shop!”

“Very nice people and wonderful candies. The atmosphere is always welcoming. There is always a wait because they help you down to the last bow! I got my great niece all her Halloween candy here but the hit of the party were the two wind up rats I got here too!”

“By far my favorite candy shop in the area— anywhere really!. Always so nice & helpful. The chocolate is so delicious! 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! Their Berwyn store has more offerings but if you want something they’ll bring it over, if you ask.”

“My employer sells Argires products in our cafeteria in Pennsylvania. Probably the best cheddarcorn I've ever had in my life. I've never been a huge fan of caramel corn, but for some reason I really like the way Argires makes it. If I'm ever going to or passing through Chicago I'm definitely going to come check this place out and stock up. Very tasty!”
“They have some really great piñata here! The quality was so good! We got 2 for my daughters' birthday party and they took the kids a while to break them, the adults even tried and were impressed with how strong they held up. Definitely will come back when I need more piñatas. The lady here was super nice and even mentioned they can make custom piñatas with a week or more notice, so that's cool to know”
“The service was definitely amazing. Kind,polite and helpful. Me and a family member were able to get the sweet treats he wanted after a 9month hiatus from his last visit. Candy was fresh and packaged to our satisfaction.”
“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!!!”
“ACCESSIBILITY REVIEW: One handicap spot a few steps from the door. Flat entrance with low grade ramp. No automatic door. Wide aisles once inside with low countertops.”

“On 11/22/2024 @ 17:21 pm, Lili served us. My husband wanted 4, dark chocolate, vanilla filled buttercreams, I wanted 2 petite walnut, truffles. We got six, milk chocolate, chelated filled butter creams. The server did not bother to listen to our order, git it wrong, and did not want to be there. We want a full refund or gift card. The customer service was atrocious and the order all wrong!! I am increasing the stars, manager, gave 2 boxes of buttercreams, vanilla for the wrong order so ? happy.!”
