Also available in cacao-free.
As you'd imagine, chocolate figures heavily in a candy lineup that covers the usual territory. An unexpected pleasure is a nicer-than-average selection of inexpensive games, puzzles, and diversions, like the basketful of small spinning toys decked out with the red, white, and blue and the words "America Is Tops." The jelly slices ($7.95 per pound) are even more colorful, with flavors to match. My sampler box included lemon, lime, blueberry, grape, apple, cherry, peach, pomegranate, grapefruit, and watermelon.
Also: peanut butter cups (like most chocolates at Aigner, $7.50 per quarter-pound) in dark, milk, and (not shown) white chocolate.

Take a look at our updated website! www.aignerchocolates.com. We've made a lot of changes in the past year, including changing the awning to our family name "Aigner" - we've owned and run the store for about 50+ years.
If you're interested in doing an updated blog post, I can organize a free tour ;) Feel free to drop a line: christopher@aignerchocolates.com
