In honor of #nationalwomensday yesterday, we are highlighting Schmidt’s Candy and its 3rd-generation owner Margie Schmidt.

Schmidt’s Candy in Woodhaven, Queens has been in business for almost a century and the owner Margie still makes all of the delicious chocolates the shop specializes in, by hand using no preservatives. 

• We visited @schmidtscandy exactly one year ago just as the pandemic was beginning to hit NYC and watched as Margie was making Easter chocolates 🐇using cast iron molds from the 1920s (right) and also making #homemade #chocolate candies. Since Easter 🐣 is fast approaching, we encourage everyone to visit Schmidt’s Candy either in person or on the website to order some of their absolutely amazing #chocolateeastereggs or bunnies. 

• • To watch our YouTube video of Margie making treats to fill customers #easterbasket and hear how the pandemic affected her small shop, please subscribe to our JamesandKarla YouTube channel, see direct link below & in bio and IG story.
