What's flying off the wall right now, picked by the folks scooping it.
Sour Peach Rings
Chewy peach rings rolled in tangy sugar. Our best-seller, hands down.
Sea Salt Caramels
Soft-set caramel dipped in milk chocolate, finished with flaked sea salt.
Rainbow Rock Candy
Crystal-cut rock candy on a stick, in five flavors kids ask for by name.
Grape Fizz Bites
Popping candy shell over a soft grape center. Gone by the weekend, usually.
Small batches, real ingredients, no shortcuts
We buy from American confectioners who still cook in copper kettles and wrap taffy by hand. Nothing sits in a warehouse — most of what's on our wall was made within the last three weeks.

What Pittsburgh is saying
A few notes from people who've stopped by the wall.
"I brought my nephew in for wax bottles and left with a pound of sour belts for myself. Zero regrets."
"The staff let me sample three kinds of caramel before I picked. That kind of patience is rare."
"Ordered a gift box for my coworker's birthday and it looked better than anything I could've built at home."
