No Valentine's Day is complete without a little sweet treat. Bergen County's many exciting candy shops have just what you need to make this day special for all the important people in your life—including yourself! Check out these local confectioners where our real estate agents got their Valentine's goodies this year.
Meyers House of Sweets
637 Wyckoff Ave. #17, Wyckoff, NJ 07481
Meyers House of Sweets began in 1904, serving simple lunches and soda pop alongside the owner's handmade candies. The candies proved so popular that they quickly became the main focus of the business. The little shop near our Wyckoff homes for sale is still going strong under the care of the third generation of the Meyer family. They offer a full Valentine-themed product line, including heart-stamped raspberry truffles, chocolate smash hearts, and gorgeous molded chocolate heart boxes that open to reveal more chocolate hearts inside.
Ridgewood Sweet Shop
216 E. Ridgewood Ave., Ridgewood, NJ 07450
Not a fan of fancy candies? Visit Ridgewood Sweet Shop to find something special made by your favorite candy brand. This shop near our Ridgewood homes for sale stocks mountains of commercially produced candies, including imported and hard-to-find sweets from big names like Hershey's, Cadbury, and Nestle. Pick up a few goodies in standard packaging (add heart-shaped stickers to make them festive!) or fill one of their pretty heart-shaped boxes with specially selected treats from their colorful bulk pick-and-mix wall.

Caramella Moo
87 S. Farview Ave., Paramus, NJ 07652
Run by home confectioner Nancy Collier, Caramella Moo is the proud home of "the original thin toffee." All of this company's chocolate-covered toffee candies are made in small batches with fresh ingredients for exceptional taste and texture. With more than a half-dozen flavors available, you're sure to find one you and your sweetheart can savor together. You'll also get the satisfaction of contributing to a good cause: Some of the proceeds from each purchase go toward helping local youths overcome drug and alcohol addiction.
