Be Mine!

Kiss me! Both of these statements are part of the original sentiments used on conversation hearts candies by inventor Necco. And if we're talking about conversation hearts, it can only mean one thing: Valentine's Day is upon us and that plucky little cherub has his sights set on candy! At The Candy Store we're all decked out and ready for love - candy love, that is.

Conversations hearts, which were invented in 1900 are one of the most popular Valentine traditions. In fact, 8 billion hearts are made for this season alone and manufacturers actually make them for 11 months to prepare! If, however, you're not in the mood for the original candy hearts, we have a fantastic alternative: solid chocolate hearts wrapped in foil with the same sorts of sayings so you can still make your point and tickle their sweet tooth.

Also available for a limited time only are beautiful boxed Saxon chocolates, brought in only for Valentine's Day; with their lush satin ribbons they're ready to give.
Still not sure what to get? Show them you were paying attention by making a delightful mixed assortment of their favourites. Any one of our helpful Candy Consultants will happily assist you in putting together that pefect treat for someone sweet. And yes, we are open on Valentine's Day from 11am - 5pm, just in case!

The Candy Store will be closed on Family Day: Monday, February 15, 2010
