Great place for a variety of fudge, especially for the holidays, and sugar-free sweets. (Hard to keep my hands off the peanut butter fudge.) Plus, this is the only place I can find (small) jawbreakers. Everyone there is always pleasant and helpful as well.

Eliza & the gang at Specialty Sweets created these little chocolate bars for our business and we can order as many or as few as we want. Fudge is delicious and many flavors to choose from as well as a large selection of chocolates (most items seem to be available in milk or dark chocolate). Edible cookie dough seems to be my kids favorite when we stop, they just serve it up like an ice cream shop 1 scoop or 2? Many other packaged candies as well. Definately something for every sweet tooth.

Specialty sweets has great homemade fudge and many other sweet treats.they will let you sample the many many flavors of fudge they have. I like the peanut butter tiger bar myself its vanilla fudge filled with peanut butter.if youre looking for a chocolate treat or even sugar-free chocolate they have at their many choices to choose from. Prices are a little steep for the portion you get. But like they say you get what you pay for you will love the choices you will have.

I saw a video on their Facebook page and decided to give them a try. The woman that served me was very nice and let us each try a piece of fudge and it was delicious!! I was also surprised to see a wide variety of homemade saltwater taffy! They are very good, I would recommend this place to anyone looking for something special.

This is an awesome family run candy shop with sweets Ive never seen before. We spent some time talking with the owner and she was wonderful as well. This place marks the first time I had a Needham... And it was excellent. Being from the Philly area, it reminded me of an Irish Potato, covered in chocolate, minus the cinnamon. Would definitely go back!

We were passing through town from Pittsburgh, and are incredibly glad we discovered this place. Everything is amazing here! Ive had candies from all over and this place tops them all! Not only was the owner very personable, she was also very knowledgeable about everything. After trying their fudge, I mentioned to my wife that it was probably than any fudge weve had from anywhere including Mackinac Island in Michigan. Their toffee won my wife over. Thank you and we wish you the best in your business future.

An amazing place to get homemade sweets everything looks very delicious, ive had a few different things but my two favorites are the fruit slices and the fudge. The lady that works there is very patient and kind and Im happy they have sugar free options for those like my grandmother who cant have a lot of sugar. My fiance really liked the chocolates there as well.

Specialty Sweets is an amazing shop. Elizas passion for creating delicacies and delectables shines through not only in every conversation with her personally, but in the quality of each and every treat. You literally cannot go wrong when in Specialty Sweets.

This place rocks!! I was visiting from out of town during the holidays and went in to grab some last minute gifts. First, we were helped right away. The staff was amazing! The young lady that helped us was so enthusiastic and helpful it was a refreshing change from most places you go during the holidays. The cherry cordials, raspberry cremes, blueberry cremes and Needhams were super tasty. I didnt care for the peanut butter cups but that might be just me. All in all I think this is a great place for candy and definitely fun to give as gifts.

Delightful chocolates and good selection. Just dont go last minute before Christmas, They clearly werent prepared for 8 or more customers at once and I had the misfortune of ordering something they were out of only to find when I returned for it, it would not arrive before christmas. These things happen. Still, worth tje trip and the price.

This isnt really a candy store. Everything is pre-packed with a small selection of candy. If you want fudge or chocolate, give it a shot, if you want to go and buy bulk candy, skip it.
