Shane Confectionery, America's Oldest Continuously Operating Confectionery (since 1863).

Shane Confectionery is the oldest continuously-run confectionery in the United States, established in 1863. The Shane family took over the business in 1911, installing elaborately carved woodwork, stained glass and curved windows to showcase the chocolates and confections made onsite. Ninety-nine years later, in 2010, the business transitioned to the Berley Brothers who own the nearby Franklin Fou

ntain and whom embarked on a meticulous restoration of the building and business. Candies continue to be made on-site, with an emphasis on locally-sourced ingredients, seasonal specialties and old-fashioned quality. We have been closed for in-person shopping since late March 2020 to protect our co-workers and customers from the spread of COVID-19. Orders can still be placed on our web-store (ShaneCandies.com/Shop) for delivery or pick-up. Since Oct. 2nd, 2020 we've been operating Take-Out window from our shopfront in addition.

Happy Pride! 🌈 Our rainbow marshmallows are back for the Summer 😋 Eight fluffy, rainbow swirled house-made Vanilla Bean Marshmallows in a bag, perfect snacking and/or making a gooey festive s’more by the fire. 🌈🔥

Marshmallows have a rich history dating back to ancient Egypt, where they were made from the sap of the mallow plant and mixed with honey as a sore throat remedy. 🌷🍯 The modern version of the confection replaces marshmallow sap with sugar and gelatin. 🍬☁️ This swap in ingredients allowed marshmallows to begin being mass-produced in the late 1800s. 🏭◽◽◽

Orange Creamsicle Boardwalk Fudge is a delightful swirl of orange and vanilla. 🍊🍦 Citrusy and sweet, the flavor is full of Summer nostalgia! 😋

Frank Epperson is generally credited for "inventing" the popsicle, however there is ample evidence that frozen fruit treats and juice bars existed in the late 19th century from a variety of vendors. 🤔 In 1872 two men “Ross and Robbins” sold a frozen-fruit confection on a stick, which they called the Hokey-Pokey. 🕺🕺 The Epperson story sticks not because he was the first, but rather the first to mass market the product: he was granted a patent for the popsicle in 1924. 📜

Citrus desserts make for a great treat as the weather starts to warm! 🌞🍋🍊 Yuzu Creme Bon Bons have a bright & tart Yuzu fondant center, coated in a crisp layer of house dark chocolate. Despite the creamy consistency of this piece's interior, it's naturally vegan. 🍫 Yuzu originated in China, and is likely a hybrid of mandarin oranges and the ichang papeda (a lemon like fruit). It was introduced to Korea and Japan during the Tang Dynasty.

Fondant dates back to France in the late 19th century 🇫🇷 The term comes from the French word ‘fondre’ (meaning melt) and is probably an allusion to fondant “melting in the mouth.” Fondant is a paste produced by boiling sugar syrup and then kneading it until it is soft, creamy, and smooth. 👩🏻‍🍳

🏖️ Hydrox Boardwalk Fudge is our most popular flavor. 😍 It's a vanilla fudge with a brown sugar taste, studded with pieces of chocolate Hydrox cookie. 🍪 If you like double stuffed cookies, this fudge is for you!

Hydrox is the original cream filled chocolate sandwich cookie, introduced in 1908. ⭐ Oreos were then created in 1912, as an imitation of Hydrox cookies! 😮
