If fudge is the answer, the question is irrelevant

Laura Little's Candies



If you love fudge, chocolate or ice cream, I recommend you stay far away from Laura Little's Candies at 2100 W. 75th St. in Prairie Village. Stay away because once you enter the store you'll be unable to leave without a box full of fattening, unhealthy and completely delicious candies.

A few days ago Natasha wanted something sweet. As we had both been wanting to try Laura Little's for a long time, we finally did. They sell everything from ice cream to truffles to fudge, even gift baskets. In short, this place is awesome.

Though the chocolate truffles looked amazing, as did the chocolate-covered strawberries and the ice cream, the free fudge samples swayed us in their direction. We had intended only to get a small snack, but somehow ended up leaving the place with 10 good sized pieces of fudge. Some of the flavors we tried were turtle, vanilla oreo, chocolate mint, chocolate walnut and best of all chocolate raspberry. Rich and decadent, each of these was fantastic, and all for a total cost of just over $10.

Somehow, through an act of supreme willpower, we managed to stretch these 10 pieces for two-and-a-half days. Did I mention I loved the fudge?

Of course next time, we'll have to try something else, but if it's even half as good as the fudge, we'll be in for a treat.
