I went in and purchased one and I had to go back and get several. Make sure you are aware of when they are open because I think they are closed on Wednesday and Thursday.

Thanks to our food tour guide, Laurent, we knew to stop in to pick up the freshest pralines in the area! Bought a few dozen to share with office workers - big hit! The gal working in the store shared that she had just celebrated...her 35th anniversary as an employee there. What a sweet validation of local businesses! Worth the stop!More

Salesperson was very helpful and knowledgeable. Candies, especially chocolates were top notch, not too sweet and even better dark wasn't overwhelmingly bitter which is often my experience. Recommend a stop

My BFF and I visited this candy shop during our visit. We had last visited it back in 2019 and it is still just as comforting as it was then. The older woman was very patient with us as it took us forever to decide...what we actually wanted. I chose a bunch of rum truffles that were delicious!More

My sister and I were looking for Pralines for our mom and went to Laura’s. The store is arranged well with all types of things. It was during pandemic so no tasting. They have a nice selection of gifts (we bought 4 things). The girl...at the register was not friendly at all! We asked about shipping and received an abrupt “no”. There was another person in the store who was a bit more welcoming.More

Whenever my family goes to New Orleans, my daughter insists on a stop at Laura's. If you want chocolate bark, pralines, fudge or ice cream, this is the place to go! Conveniently located on Chartres Street and easy to find.

The lady that works there is very nice. I bought a raspberry truffle, a peanut butter caramel chocolate, and a sour apple fruit jelly slice. All 3 were delicious. My favorite was the truffle. I wish I would’ve bought more of them. The next time...I’m in town, I’ll definitely pass by & buy more candies.More

My family wanted some fudge so we popped in to see what all they offered. I ended up buying a Mississippi Mud Pie. I'd never tasted one before, but it looked great. When I bit into it the 1st time, my eyes literally rolled in...the back of head. A-FREAKING-MAZING!!!!!!More

Do you love chocolate? I do, and I love this shop! All of the chocolates and fudge in the case look and taste delicious. I tried several kinds, and you should too. It's hard not to go a little crazy in here, but the calories...are worth it - these chocolates are sooo good.More

I love chocolate. I purchased the chocolate covered oreos, chocolate covered pretzels and chocolate covered graham crackers - all were excellent. My wife (not a fan of chocolate) also thought the graham crackers were excellent.
