It appears that chocolate is a very difficult commodity to deliver in perfect condition every time. Ive learned to appreciate fresh & flavorful and, after sampling the offerings from every provider I know of within 50 miles; there is only one provider that doesnt put its product over tin foil and under Saran wrap (bad sign, unless you like slow moving, aged/stale product)...never seen that at Criterion Chocolate. Always fresh, always delicious...and it melts!!! Did you ever notice that the crappier chocolate barely melts in your hand. This is not a plug for M&Ms; its an observation that additives effect taste (sorry Hershey & Nestle)...Criterion product still melts!! Buy your chocolate there...there is only one #1!!
Support local businesses.Granddaughters love their chocolate and taffy.
Wonderful quality, helpful staff. My familys favorite place to buy chocolates. Our first visit there was like discovering a hidden jewel in our own backyard!
Great place to stop by to pick up chocolate for any occasion! They make themed candy as well for Easter, Mothers Day, or any holiday. I will definetly be stopping by again.
I love Criterion Chocolates. The candy and chocolate are delicious and always a pleasure place to visit and buy gifts.
Friendly owners and employees. Very clean. Nice variety of chocolates and best taffy in NJ.
Great dark chocolate raisin clusters, non-pariels, DC covered cherries and marshmallows. The best saltwater taffy. Reasonable prices. Friendly service. Loyal customers.
A friend mentioned Criterion Chocolates to me as she used to live in NJ, and still has relatives there. I ordered a pound of dark chocolate nonpariels for her and some dark chocolate turtles as well. When they arrived, she offered me a taste, and I loved em. Ill be ordering more for my own enjoyment.The ordering process is a bit old fashioned ... nothing on line. Gotta make a phone call, talk to people, and then wait a while before getting the chocolate. Kind of nice ... Oh, they wont ship the chocolates during the hot months, especially to California where were located.
Good selection and excellent chocolate
Best haystacks and chocolate turtles I have ever had! Very sweet ladies helped us and answered our questions. Would recommend to anyone.
