“As a new mom, and someone who has 1 million nieces and nephews and a different friend having a baby what seems like every month I would be completely lost without KJ’s. The store is organized by age grouping and the people working there are so knowledgeable on all the newest fads. There’s truly something for every age group and occasion there. They’ve revolutionized one stop shopping: birthday party? Check. Dance recital? CHECK! Stocking stuffers? Check. Easter baskets? Check!!! I feel blessed to have this in my backyard, and to see my money going somewhere local.”

“Thank you for making my mom's Mother's day special. She has Alzheimer's so isn't able to enjoy much at this stage.....but to see her smile while enjoying a Clark bar that she used to loved made everyone tear up. Thank you for giving her a good day.”
“I’ve been patronizing Schwartz Candies for over 30 years, and it has truly been a family tradition for us. From childhood memories to now bringing my own family in, this place has always been part of our celebrations, holidays, and “just because” moments.
The quality is consistently outstanding — rich, fresh, and absolutely delicious every single time. You can taste the craftsmanship in everything they make. Their chocolates are smooth and decadent, and the selection always feels special.
What really sets Schwartz Candies apart, though, is the experience. The staff is warm, welcoming, and genuinely cares about their customers. It still feels like the kind of place where people know you and appreciate your business — something that’s rare these days.
After three decades, they’ve never disappointed us. Schwartz Candies isn’t just a candy store — it’s part of our family traditions. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Just stopped in and bought and shipped chocolate gifts to loved ones across the country for Thanksgiving! The store was busy and beautiful and the team was so helpful! A great vibe. Thank you so much and we will see you again for Christmas gifts!”
“Lazar's makes fabulous chocolate! I ordered a bunch of different items, mostly dark chocolate, for Passover for my family. They made outstanding dark chocolate (72% cocoa) treats for us -- wow, they are so wonderful! (I'm still finishing some...Rich, deep and well-balanced. It's as good as the fanciest Laderach or Vosges, both of which I love.)
The service was terrific, and the staff extremely helpful for this long-distance order. They shipped the items to me in North Carolina in great shape, well packed, and unbroken.
I'm a believer! I'll be back!”
“Big big store with a huge selection of very nice gift. And toy products and neat stuff like that.
Everybody's very nice. The pharmacy is extensive, and I just found out that they also do eye tests for New York state driver's licenses. So you don't have to go to DMV.”
“I needed 16 personalized gifts in 1 hour.
I can't believe that not only were my gifts ready and gorgeous, but the owner was in communication before the store opened.
And the chocolates were delicious.
This kind of service these days is invaluable”
“Truly some of the best chocolate I’ve ever had! This is a very cute shop and they clearly put so much effort into their chocolate and customer service. Highly recommend.”
“Amazing service every time! Delicious chocolate. Danae, Stacey and Rose are the absolute best sales women. Very professional knowledgeable and deserve a raise ??”
“They have a large selection and even do custom made orders. The lady was very patient with answering all our questions and helping us pick out a few gift baskets. They are pricey but worth it!”

“Seriously the best American chocolate around. The brand is 100 years old, and they still make it like they used to. The staff is super friendly, and the vibe of the store is calm and you won't find anything not to like. It's not inexpensive, but it's absolutely worth it. Be careful if you go because See's chocolate may end up being your next obsession.”
“My absolute go to for any birthday, holiday, kid’s school performance or hostess gifts. Chocolicious chocolates are always so fresh and absolutely delicious. This place is a hidden gem. The staff are always so kind and super helpful. Get someone a gift and a little something extra for yourself. You won’t be disappointed!”
