One of the world’s 50 best candy shops is right here in Jersey

Black River Candy Shoppe in Chester, New Jersey was featured in Food Network Magazine “America’s 50 Best Candy Stores” a few years ago and the story went viral online earlier this year.
I decided to take a trip there for myself to see what they had to offer. As soon as you walk in you feel like Charlie is about to take over the chocolate factory. Black River Candy Shoppe is a cute little candy shop with hundreds of different types of candies.
They have old school childhood candy as well as an amazing selection of new candy varieties. The candies are displayed in old whiskey casks, and many of their candies are sold in bulk by the pound. It is located in downtown Chester, just off Main Street. Check out the photos from my recent visit:
