This Minnesota Chocolate Shop on the Mississippi Is Still Making Fresh Chocolates by Hand

A chocolate turtle in this shop can come with its own pitch about real endangered turtles. I love that a candy counter might teach you something while it tempts you. The chocolates are made fresh, and some are shaped to honor the wildlife that lives along the river. Then there’s a back room where the windows look straight out at the Mississippi.

Mighty Fine! Coffee Co. opens new drive-thru location

Mighty Fine! Coffee Company opened its drive-thru location Monday at 127 14th St. NW, Faribault, after working to keep the building intact to preserve its history. The new location also has a counter inside and seating for those who want to order their drink that way. Lines of cars go through the drive-thru despite a broken speaker, according to co-owner Nathaniel Cunningham. “The community’s been real nice to us, and a lot of people are happy to see us here,” Cunningham said. In previous reporting from the Faribault Daily News, fellow co-owner Jordan Brennan said he wanted to revitalize the building — which previously held a laundromat — and protect the town’s history. Although the building needed a remodeling on the inside, the only change to the outside was to pain the walls green. Also a major part of the reopening plan was keeping the original sign post outside of the building. The Faribault City Council voted to allow the coffee shop to use the sign to advertise the drive-thru. “We kept the sign that’s been there for about 70 years, so we have a new sign coming up here in the middle of November,” Cunningham said. While the drive-thru

Since 1928, The Same Family Has Rolled Old-Fashioned Candy Canes By Hand In Minnesota

Somewhere in Minnesota, a family has been twisting peppermint candy canes by hand since 1928. Not stamped out by some giant machine, but rolled and shaped the slow, old-fashioned way. That alone made me curious. Then I learned the same shop sells chocolate-covered caramel treats called Alligators and keeps a...
