Helen Grace Chocolates

See’s Candy will always be my choice in the best candy company but, let me just say I’d drive 100 miles to be me a Peanut Butter bar. SO good!

The best chocolate ever! Dark or milk, or Nut Buddy’s, peppermint bark. It’s ALL worth a try! The Peanut butter creams are my favorite.

Do not ever shop here. The girl with the purple hair has a horrible attitude asked her a question politely and she had the audacity to roll her eyes and give me attitude I understand if you hate your job but if I’m spending my money here I expect some courtesy. So rude never shopping here again. On top of everything the chocolate was stale and disgusting kind of like the employees face.

I JUST FOUND A PIECE OF HAIR IN THE CHOCOLATE. ITS STUCK IN THE CHOCOLATE. GROSS
How can you sell something with hair. Now I’m skeptical to which how they prepare the stuff and if the staff is dressed properly.

Great chocolate better than sees very creamy and exquisite. Never crowded. Love this place been buying chocolate here for years and trust me I’m a chocolate lover and I know good chocolate.

I wish some people would rate the chocolate and not diss them because the store didnt have the right color of ribbon for an occasion. Get it together yourself and go buy your favorite ribbon. Gee. .. its your Mother.
Saying that however, the chocolates at Helen Grace are to me absolutely delish! I really think that the milk chocolate is far superior than Sees. It’s my personal opinion but if you have not tried Helen Grace, do. Right before the Thanksgiving and the Christmas holiday, Safeway has a special little chocolate package for sale that Helen Grace puts together. Ive personally purchased over 20 boxes; last year and the year before. They are small and sweet with about 20 little chocolates in them; both years in a lovely blue fancy box. The box looks like it came from Tiffanys. If you see them in your market, buy them. You will not be sorry! Instead of gift certs from Sees for little presents, I gave these. Everyone wanted to know where in the heck I found them. There is no «Helen Grace» name on the top of the box. There is really nothing but the fancy blue box but the maker, Helen Grace, is marked on the bottom on a small little sticker.
Chocolate is pricey. Good to excellent chocolate is even more. But if you look at a plain Hersheys bar you can buy anywhere and what it cost per ounce, Helen Grace is less than that waxy bar that you grab when you are desperate. If your in the area where the store is, go for it. If you see a cute little Tiffany colored blue box with candies in it at your grocery around the holidays. .. buy it. Buy one for someone you care about and one for yourself. You will have to hide it though because once a family member tries one, they will be gone…
p. s. Oh and Helen Grace does do the school fundraisers too!

I found this store not very friendly and not accommodating no customer service…
…
, I spent 57 bucks and all I wanted was a lavender ribbon to go around my box and I couldn’t get it but the way in which no no no I was told to me is mothers day and the box is very masculine

You just gotta try the candy for yourself. Ok so it might be a few more cents than what you’re usually paying for but you won’t find good quality chocolate anywhere else other than Helen Grace. Plus they have perfect gift ideas for almost every occasion. If you’re a chocolate lover and you just so happen to come across Helen Grace candy, I definitely recommend you stop and try it out. The staff is really helpful and nice. They weigh the candy in front of you.

This is the first time I have found a Helen Grace location. Luckily, it was near a patients house so I was able to stop by after. The location is not great but at least there is a lot of parking.
The store was not crowded at all and the employee was very nice and serviced me quickly. The only caution I would give to others stopping by is like someone said, «watch out for whacky people»! Again, this is not in the best location so always be aware of your surroundings.
It would really be unfortunate to get mugged or robbed of the nice and yummy chocolate you just bought!

I came across some chocolate Easter Eggs (peanut butter and chocolate butter) from this company at my local Safeway store the day after Easter. Naturally, I got them for ½ off (regularly $ 5.99). Net wt. 6 oz.
I tried the peanut butter one first. The texture of the peanut butter was coarse, not smooth and creamy, and it was loaded with chopped peanuts and crisp rice. It was okay (2.75 stars)…not as good as See’s peanut butter egg.
However, the chocolate butter egg was slightly better — sinfully rich and creamy — like eating fudge (3.25 stars). Partial list of ingredients is sugar, milk chocolate, butter, corn syrup, chocolate flavor, chocolate liquor, evaporated milk, vanilla, etc.
The only good thing about these chocolate Easter Eggs was the little fancy box containing them.
Which brand do I prefer — See’s or Helen Grace? My hands are up for See’s.

Best caramel/​almond apples ever… better than the chocolate factory!

Cute little store located in a new plaza on LB blvd, right next door to Yogu Riffic.
You kinda can’t tell if the store is open or not cause the widows are so dark. I believe maybe, so the sun does not hit the chocolate and melt.
Luckily they have an OPEN sign on the left side of the door– just wish it was a bit bigger and lit up more. On a sunny day you really cannot see that sign.
Tons of cute little items that are already package up– to give a as gift or throw in a Easter basket.
They also have a huge display case of tones of chocolate items to choose from. Helen Grace does not taste as good to me as other chocolates but maybe I just need to find the right ones I like.
Check the store out thought. You might fins something you like.

Great chocolate selection and cheap for my buck these days…

So which is better Helen Grace or See’s candies it?
I preffered the ones from Helen Grace just watch out for the wacky people.
As kids we use to sell these chocolates for fund raisers.
