Treat your Valentine at Ye Olde Pepper Candy Companie

I stopped into the Pepper Candy Companie yesterday to grab some Gibralters, and was transported into the land of Valentine's chocolate.

This is the real deal - heart-shaped boxes, conversation hearts, candy-canes reshaped into peppermint hearts (love the re-purposing!), fudge, chocolate, and more chocolate.

What could be better than locally made chocolates?  While you are there, pick up a pack of Gibralters, America's first commercially produced candy, and taste a little history.
