Corner of Main Street and Court Street

From Phileas's Journal:
As a person quite partial to sweets, I was more than delighted to catch sight of Tschudin Chocolates, a quiant chocolatier on Main Street. As soon as I popped in, I was greeted with the brilliant smile of owner Robert Tschudin Lucheme and his enthusiastic staff. Lucheme immediately began to show off his shop, bringing me on a behind-the-counter "Willy Wonka" tour to witness the art of creating chocolates. Lucheme explained that his delightful treats are made with only the finest chocolates imported from France and white chocolate imported from Belgium, and that each piece of his eclectic collection of chocolates is handmade! And how eclectic his collection is! Lucheme crafts not only simple milk and dark chocolates, but also unique creations such as Ras el Hanut (an exotic mix of Moroccan spices) chocolates, crepe-filled chocolates, and gingerbread dark chocolates (just to name a few).
But there was more! In addition to chocolates, the shop also offers a featured baked good daily (not necessarily made with chocolate) and chocolate sculptures that can be made to order (I was flabberghasted to view a lifesize chocolate skateboad displayed in their window!). Lucheme also whispered that his team was currently developing a line of asian confections, which I will most certainly be travelling back to Middletown to experience. With such a large and unique collection of confections, I am confident in saying that this shop will please any admirer of sweets!
