“Very nice family owned business. They have a large assortment of all different kinds of ? candy.
The mom made our special request for about 20 boxes of assorted individual foil and clear wrapped chocolates ? with a beautiful bow at a very good price ?.”
“We discovered Lore's delicious chocolates on our way to the Independence Library. Their shop is a block from the library and they were doing a free chocolate sampling. Their chocolates were the best we'd ever tasted! We bought both their butter creams and truffle assortments. We learned that Lore's is a family-owned business that's been in this location for over 50 years. They create these artisan chocolates onsite in a historic building and district. Their prices are very reasonable for the freshness and quality of the chocolates.”
“Lovely experience, great staff today with great suggestions and took care of us. Great selections as well to include unique items such as seasons and extracts with dried fruit. Will return!”
“Zipf’s is a tiny hidden gem right off of Germantown Ave. The selection is overwhelming for the size of the place. The staff is friendly and helpful. We bought 8 different truffles & a small Dubai chocolate - everything was good. Pricing was fair. This is also a good spot to check out for nostalgic candy.”
“Absolutely delicious! You can tell they use authentic chocolate in everything. The hot chocolate is rich and deeply chocolaty (and very hot, but worth the wait!), and the bonbons are unique and flavorful. Can’t wait to return!”
“Customer service was outstanding and supportive and the candy was delicious. So fresh. We’ve had Swedish candy before and it was lackluster in flavor. Each type of Swedish candy we got was a burst of flavor. It was our first time visiting and it won’t be our last.”
“I just bought 4 bags of sunflower seeds, which I typically do from Nuts to You. The price is nice (all locations are not equal though) and they aren't super salty. They taste way better now too. I had stopped buying them cause the taste was not wonderful at all to my taste buds.”
“First went when the store first opened a few months ago and was shocked how full the shelves were considering how empty other stores shelves are and the gentleman that owns the shop is extremely nice, helpful, and gets a lot of candy and snacks that I haven't seen in years! The items are reasonably priced with more items being put on shelves often.”
“The address for this business, 1500 Market Street, is a bit misleading. I believe the only entrance (the one I used) is on 16th Street just south of Market Street. My first visit to this location, which seemed consistent with the other locations in terms of available products. As usual with this local chain of stores, they are a great resource, especially when it comes to the holiday baking. If you're outfitting your gingerbread house, this is the equivalent of Lowes or Home Depot. Competitive pricing on their dates and walnuts. Although I do wish they carried organic products as well. I found when getting home that one item I had bagged up was apparently left behind on the counter. Calling the store, I was assured that whether or not I had actually paid for it, the item would be held for me to pick up later. Note that they have a frequent shopper program, so I was able to take several dollars off my bill with the credit that had accumulated, and which I didn't even know about. Nice!”
“I ordered fudge from here for my wedding welcome bags (boardwalk themed!). It was so easy to communicate with Marilyn when ordering and picking up at Reading Terminal. So many people commented on how good the fudge was too!”

“Went there with a friend and got a lot of stuff.
They were very friendly and accommodating. Even helped by getting stuff in the back since we were getting so much?”
“Love the Dunkin Jelly Beans, Swedish Fish Marshmallows, Gummy Krabby Patties, Sour Patch Kids Conversation Hearts, Wonder Balls, and everything else, because there's too many good products to name. Thanks for making life sweet ”
“Excellent place to buy reminders at a very good price, a lot of variety for all tastes and budgets. The store is small but its owner makes it very welcoming, helpful and friendly. I recommend visiting it, you won't regret it.”
