“Regina’s Candies — The Best Chocolate Shop in St. Paul, Minnesota
Regina’s Candies is, without question, the best chocolate you’ll find in Minnesota — especially here in Saint Paul. I’ve been coming to Regina’s for over a decade, and nothing else compares.
If you go, you have to try the melt-away chocolate caramels. They are my absolute favorite. I’m a dark-chocolate person, but their milk chocolate is just as incredible — rich, smooth, and crafted perfectly.
Walking into Regina’s is an experience on its own. You get hit instantly with that warm, nostalgic scent of chocolate, caramel, and sugar — it’s honestly uplifting. The shop has this classic, family-run feel that makes you want to slow down, browse every shelf, and take it all in. There’s always some specialty chocolate item I’ve never seen before, and I inevitably end up buying way more than I planned… every single time. I tell myself I shouldn’t come back because I have no self-control in that store — and then I’m back again a month later. Every time.
If you’re looking for handmade chocolates, caramel, seasonal treats, gift boxes, or just a place that feels like authentic Minnesota tradition, Regina’s Candies is it. I truly couldn’t recommend them more.”
“Feels like stepping back in time. Their popcorn is the best ever as they make it fresh and you can choose from different flavors like. cheese, caramel, and regular.”
“I recently went to MOA and stopped at the Lindt Store for the first time. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The store manager was very helpful in making suggestions for a party favors. I will definitely be back for holiday gifts!”
“If you are in MOA, i highly recommend you to visit this store. It is fun and pretty. Staff members were polite and friendly. The candy was overpriced though. You can find some really good merch. Nice store to visit”
“LaRena was our clerk and she was so helpful. I was there with adults with a variety of disabilities and she was patient and efficient. Good for you to have such great sales associates.”
“Every time I want to make a nice gift for my family or friends from Mexico, I come to this store, where they have many souvenirs to choose from, all very nice. The staff is always there to help you, they are super friendly. I don't understand people who complain about prices, I think that you are buying a gift that represents a special memory of the place you have visited and that makes it different and special than any others.”
“The cashier was so kind. Very friendly and engaging in conversation with us when we looked. I ended up buying my 3 y/o niece two Paw Patrol pez dispensers and the cashier was so sweet with her!”
“Love the Pearson's Peppermint patties!! I think, they are the best mints ever!! I have one or two almost every day after a meal. The flavor of the mint, the dark chocolate covering, the texture & size is perfect!! ? I've gotten others hooked on them, too.
Thank you for making them that way!!”
“Great selection of candy and great people. This is the place to stop for candy at The Mall of America. Friendly faces and the smiles to match. Ask for Jesse, he’ll take care of all your candy cravings!”
“I visited Minnesota this weekend for a ravens and Vikings football game, We stayed late at the mall of America and we all wanted a sweet treat. Everything just had closed and we asked multiple different people, but we came up to Rocky Mountain chocolate factory and Justin and Thomas were gracious enough to let us still get an order in even after they were just finishing closing. This is fantastic business”
“This is a St Paul gem.
Handcrafted amazing chocolates. We come here several times a month as we use their amazing chocolate boxes as gifts to our clients.”
