Savannah's Original Candy Store since 1973

The short list of what people reorder most, for anyone who would rather not read through every page.

Three things account for most of what leaves the kitchen. The classic box of original pralines leads by a wide margin. The assorted Bear Claws classic box is the chocolate answer, with milk, dark and white in the same box. And the Taste of Georgia gift basket is what people send when one gift has to please a whole family.

Pralines are at their best inside fourteen days, so send them rather than stockpile them. If you want to know why these keep selling, our customer reviews say it better than we can. The recipe behind the first one is written out in our guide to making pecan pralines, and anything that has not had time to earn a spot here yet is over in new arrivals.
