Like a kid in a candy store…I always feel when I enter Edie Bees.  It is a state of complete fascination…so many tempting confections all around me.  Edie Bees is located at 115 Second Street, Lewes, DE 19958.  Tel. 302-245-2337.  It opens 7 days a week.

Edie Bees fits like a glove in Historic Lewes, among quaint shops and restaurants.  Lewes is the First Town in the First State.  It is a year round resort.  Visitors love coming to Lewes; it is just so pretty.  The residents watch over Lewes protecting this historic gem.

Some of the candy will bring memories to those who are a bit matured.  Other chocolates will mesmerize you….so gorgeous, like the hand painted truffle eggs from a company in New York called Chocolat Moderne.  On the left, the Fauverge Eggs and on the right the speckled Eggs Naturel.

The Chocolate Easter Eggs from Souderton, Pennsylvania, are all filled with 5 different flavors….Coconut, Peanut Butter, Cutter Cream, Fruit & Nut, and Chocolate & Nut.

Edie Bees brings to Lewes uncured Bacon Chocolate Eggs from Vosges Haut-Chocolat from Chicago.

And, John Kelly chocolates from California.

Just in time for Easter, the Gluten Free, Vegan, and Nut Free chocolates have arrived.

Throughout Edie Bees there is plenty of candy for the holidays.  But, candy and chocolates are for every occasion.  Grab your bags and fill them with your choice of confections.

The shelves are full of candy.  Very visible, just open the lids and help yourselves.

If you have any questions there is plenty of help and on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday you will find my friend, Jody, at Edie Bees.  She knows her candy and can give you plenty of ideas if you have a gift for someone special in mind.

Walking around the candy shop I thought these pretzels looked amazing.

The Malt Balls…always have loved them.   Easy shopping, they are already bagged.

The chocolates:

This box made all of chocolate containing chocolate truffles…is decadent.

So, if you are looking for something special, something out of the ordinary, something that will make someone happy…..stop by and take a few sweets home.

Have a good one!!

Edie Bees, Confection Shop, Historic Lewes, Delaware, Is Open for Business!! Chocolates, Candies…Yum!! What a treat at the Delaware Beaches!

We felt like kids in a candy store…that’s exactly where we were.  Debbie, Jody, and I decided to visit Edie Bees on its opening day….yes, this charming confection shop opened today at 115 Second Street in Historic Lewes. Sweet temptations for all of us and another excuse to stroll and shop in Lewes.

Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day and Easter, the colors were amazing.  As you entered the shop an impressive rock candy arrangement greeted you.  Gorgeous!!  Taking the store in, all you can say is that it really is pretty.

Candy stores are happy places; you should have seen the smiles on people’s faces as they were coming to check the new kid in town.  The centerpiece was this huge chocolate Bunny surrounded by the best of the season.

Chocolates by DeBrand, chocolatiers from Fort Wayne, Indiana.  The company was founded in 1987.

The lucky customers got to sample some of the delicious chocolates today.

Also, by DeBrand, these caught my attention.  They were called Faces of the World…our diverse world in chocolates!

Some of the candy brought a bit of nostalgia in us.  Other candy…well, we couldn’t wait to try some.  All candy is in glass containers, very visible.  And, very color coordinated.

Some interesting flavors…

These particular ones…well, they made my mouth water.

Tempting right?  You bet!!  What are you waiting for?  Have a good one!
