THE BEST CHOCOLATE SHOPS

Valentine's Day without chocolate is like a peanut butter sandwich without jelly.  This occasion deserves the ultimate indulgence, and this boutique has all the right stuff.

Evans Creole Candy / Cuccia's Chocolates.
The draw for chocoholics here is the creole hash - a jumble of homemade marshmallow, milk chocolate and pecans.  It goes down particularly easy in the Big Easy.

I was on a recent trip to New Orleans and I purchased some of your famous creole pralines.  They were absolutely out of this world!

LLD, West Palm Beach, Florida

Just a note to say thank you for continuing to make such a fine praline candy.  I love to give boxes of your candy to fellow employees (we have offices around the country) and friends.  Your pralines are always a welcome gift and have been told that they arrive fresh and unbroken.
At home, your candy is the house favorite and I try to keep a dozen on hand.  Of course, they disappear after the first day!
With Christmas approaching, your name is at the top of my "to purchase" list and want to say I appreciate your good product and good service.  A shopper cannot go wrong with purchasing your pralines, everyone loves them.
Keep up the good work.

TB, New Orleans, Louisiana

Recently one of my co-workers brought in a box of pralines that he purchased in New Orleans.  They were absolutely delicious and I copied the name of your company off the box so I could get a catalog and place an order with you.
They were the very best pralines I have ever tasted and I cannot wait to get some for myself.

JJR, Spring Valley, California

Several weeks ago I had the pleasure of vacationing for ten days in your lovely, historic city.  One of my pleasures was buying boxes of your pralines - Chewie & Creamy Rum are my favorites.  Each box was the 14oz. size and were carried on the plane and kept in beautiful condition.  The recipients wanted more!  Which is the true purpose of this letter ...

IG, Albuquerque, New Mexico

I am writing in regard to your candy.  My daughter was in New Orleans and she brought me a box of Evans Famous Creole Pralines.  I am 65 years old and that was the best candy I have ever had!

BG, Chicago Illinois

Yum!  Yum! best describes the pralines I received from my daughter and her husband while on a visit to New Orleans.  I sampled a bit of each and since there are no adequate adjectives to best describe each one, I shall just say deliciously scrumptious!!!  All flavors!!  They are so creamy and rich in taste.  I shall certainly enjoy each remaining piece.

I have recently been exposed to your Original Creole Pralines.  As my children would say, it was "to die for".  Excellent is an understatement, and because I was so impressed with your pralines, I wanted to write you and ask that you please send me a catalog of the products you offer.

PM, Miami, Florida

I recently tried a box of your chocolates that someone graciously brought back for me from their trip to New Orleans.  They were absolutely delicious and I was wondering if you would be kind enough to send me a brochure or pamphlet describing same.

EA, Richmond Hill, New York

Our family received a box of your outstanding - by far the best candy available - as a gift from a friend.  We truly enjoyed your "heavenly" candy.

MD, St. Paul, Minnesota

Your chocolates are the best, ever!

JP, no return address

I was so pleasantly surprised to receive a gift package from you via U.P.S.  How very kind and thoughtful of you to respond to my letter in such a generous way.  The pralines you sent exemplify the quality freshness and high standards for which Evans is so widely known.  You can be assured that my family and friends will continue to purchase your famous pralines and will always think of your company as first-rate.

RA, Colorado Springs, Colorado

I was pleasantly surprised several days ago when U.P.S. left a parcel containing three boxes of Evans Famous Creole Pralines and upon sampling one of them I found them not only very fresh, but also very delicious - far different the pralines offered at the hotel last month.  Now I will be able to confidently present two of the boxes to my sister and a friend who had both expressed a desire for a gift of pralines.  I am sure they will find your pralines more than satisfactory.

TP, no return address

I had the thrill of tasting some of your Chewie praline candies recently and have searched for them in my local area to no avail.  Your creole pralines are indescribably delicious.  Please send me an order form!

MSH, Macungie, Pennsylvania 

A friend of mine the other night had introduced me to your mouth-watering praline candies.  They were delicious and I must have some more.  Do you take orders from across the border?  Some things in life are worth the extra effort.
