The store is charming and has a good variety of old fashioned candy. The real standout, though, is the fudge. It is very smooth, and the flavors are wonderful. Chocolate is dense and rich. There is a lot of creativity in seasonal offerings; right now my personal favorite is raspberry pistachio.
Well worth a visit.

I was equally impressed with the decor. It reminds me of the candy store at Greenfield Village. I bought the cinnamon almonds and the caramel corn, In fact, as I write this I am eating the caramel corn and it is delicious! Keep up the good work.

My husband and I are from out of town and stopped by on our way home. I was really impressed with the fudge. The ones we tasted were really tasty, and the variety was great! There were 15 or so flavors, and I learned they are on rotation. All fudge is made homemade, and the woman who makes them takes suggestions for flavors. We bought Superman and Chocolate Peanut Butter. We'll definitely stop by if we're in the area.

THE BEST fudge! Great variety of novelty candies and sodas. Brian's collection of vintage art work and candy and soda dispensers is very cool! If you haven't visited JC&FF yet, you should!

This reminds me of an old fashion candy store! It's quite small inside but has a lot to offer and is decorated so cute. I got peanut butter fudge and it was delicious.
There is no parking lot but just park across from DQ by the Catholic shop and walk a few feet.
They have cute baskets full of candy for birthdays, baby gifts, ect.

This shop is one of the treasures of Jackson. It is so charming and old fashioned and has a ton of delicious candy, popcorn, and fudge. There is an adorable train track that runs above the counter. It is convenient to park on Elm Street or in the lot behind Knibloe's.

I loved this place. I was blown away by the inside décor. It was literally like stepping back in time. This 1890's fudge shop was the nicest I've visited. The fudge was better than Mackinaw Island and the selection of chocolates, taffy, truffles was plentiful. They even had some old time candy that I had not seen in years. I also really appreciated how nice the workers were.
The walls were old time brick, and it had a copper ceiling that I think is from the 1800's. Whoever put this place together had a real eye for things from the past. I loved the old scales, and the many mirrors and custom cabinetry. The old coke items only added to it all. It even has a full size train that circles the ceiling. Sweet!
I would be missed to say if I didn't point out the open kitchen. They were making the cinnamon nuts when I was there and the smell was incredible. They gave me some samples and they were really good. Warm and tasty. They said they also made the fudge there and the caramel corn. I must come back when they're making the fudge.
Big thank you for whoever is behind this place. They built it perfectly and it's a warm place with excellent fudge and chocolates. Definitely worth visiting this place. I stumbled on it when I got off the highway for gas, but will be back ever time I pass thru Jackson. It's only 1/4 mile off the highway. Not sure of the exit number or the name of the street.

Thank you for writing such a nice review! Its exciting to see the vision of this old fashioned candy shop come to life and to have others appreciate it too. We double checked the exit # off of I-94 and its exit 141(Elm St). Mapquest says the candy shop is only 4 minutes from the highway. Our location is on the corner of Elm St and E. Michigan Ave. Thanks again and we look forward to seeing you on your next trip to Jackson.

These were the worst chocolates I've ever had. Gilberts is far superior if your looking for homemade chocolates.

We were immediately welcomed as we entered the store. Very cute use of space and decor. A good variety of candies are displayed. Many flavors of taffy and Jelly Bellies were available. We were offered to sample several pieces of the delicious fudge. The unusual Lemon-Raspberry flavor was creamy and excellent!

My wife suggested visiting this wonderful "old time" candy shop after stopping last week with her mother! Entered and was immediately greeted by staff with a smile and a warm welcome! They gave our daughter a token for the gun ball machine, which made her day! We grabbed some amazing looking popcorn and fudge! I know the fudge is great because the wife brought some home last week! We will definitely be frequent visitors to this shop!
