    Excellent Candies
    I've miss the store being open, but purchased online. Ordering online was easy. The chocolates arrived amazing fast and fresh. Their toffee has always been my favorite, no others can compare. The grandsons love the melties, and the peanut butter lovers selection. Thanks for being there, see you in the store soon.

    Colonial Chocolates to fight a Revolution over
    The array of Popcorn, and mouth watering chocolates rivals any large franchise, such as Rocky Mountain Chocolate. My mother, the former Miss Chocolate, 1934, was most satisfied. I found the prices inviting, and the chocolates worth starting an American Revolution.

    Great handmade candy selection!
    I visited Bedford Candies for the first time last week. The staff was friendly and helpful and the variety of candies and flavored popcorn was amazing! Definitely worth a stop if you are in Bedford.

Bad service
Feb 2022
The teenage girls working the Rita's counter were rude. I took my family into the Rita's portion of Bedford candies for a first-time visit. Our young children didn't know what they wanted for a bit and were having a hard time deciding. There were no other customers in line, and we weren't holding anyone up but after a few minutes I caught 2 of the employees rolling their eyes at each other acting like we were being a pain. We finally ordered and paid. We received our items which were good, but the employees were not pleasant and never even thanked us or said anything like have a good day...even if they didn't mean it. If they were my employees, I would have fired them. We will not go back to the Rita's portion of the store again.

Bedford's chocolate and popcorn is the best!
Oct 2016 • Couples
I always get any chocolate gifts here and also their wonderfully inventive popcorn. They have flavors that change with the season, and I think even weekly they have new flavors as well as keeping the "staple" flavors. I fill a tin for my parents every time I make a trip to Bedford to see them. The chocolate doesn't get any better then theirs. I have given it as gifts and people say it is the best they ever had. Recommend a stop there to any one visiting. Store started in 1929 and recipe handed down. Nice local place with a long history in Bedford. Window beautifully decorated for Autumn too.

Very expensive Popcorn!
Mar 2016
I was given a small bag of popcorn and samples of candy as a gift. I stopped in the store to price the cost of the different varieties of popcorn and candies. I walked out and didn't purchase anything. This place is for someone who can easily afford to spend hard earned money wastefully. This is not a budget friendly store. JMO!

Delicious chocolate & friendly service
Feb 2015 • Couples
Loved everything about this place. I love old towns and I love mom and pop candy shops. This one was definitely one of the better ones I have been too. Delicious well flavored quality chocolate. Try the spider, try the butter-cream truffle, try the salted caramel truffle. Heck, try everything! Can't wait to return.

Unique and delicious

If you like popcorn, this is your place. So many varieties of sweet and/or savory popcorn. Spider is my favorite. They travel well; a nice gift to take home to your friends or family....or to keep for yourself!! Highly recommend! I plan to order on-line, too.

Candies!
Apr 2019 • Couples
I love local candy shops, and this one in downtown Bedford is great. They have a lot of house made chocolates and also many flavors of popcorn. I had never seen Peeps flavored popcorn before! If you’re in the area you should stop in. It seemed out of place but there is actually a small Rita’s Italian Ice counter inside.

Yummy!
Feb 2018 • Couples
Easy to find right in the middle of Bedford. Tons of fresh popcorn and so many flavors. They have all kinds of candy. The sugar coated gummy bunnies are the best. Chocolate covered everything you can think of! Yes even bacon. My favorite is the white chocolate covered peanut butter melt aways! Assorted candies along the one wall. Chocolates on the other. It is also very close to the Bedford Springs Resort!

A real treat

When in Bedford you must stop in. Whatever your fancy in candies and popcorn you’ll find it here. You can sample any of the many varieties of flavored popcorn and take home you favorite. They also will package and mail gifts for you.
