Google reviewers rate Wilbur's Candy Shoppe 4.5 out of 5 stars based on 31 reviews, with the owner responding to 77% of them. Customers frequently praise the wide selection of homemade chocolate, local artisan candies, and friendly staff, often noting the store's unique atmosphere and seasonal events. However, a recurring criticism in lower-rated reviews is that specific items are significantly overpriced compared to standard retail options, with some customers finding the cost unjustified for the quality or variety received.

Perfect if you have a sweet tooth. The dark chocolate is sweeter than your typical dark chocolate, so if you're one of those people who usually finds dark chocolate to be too bitter then I would definitely give theirs a try!
Fun candy shop with a focus on chocolate. They've won some awards for their chocolate! We were able to sample the Maine Mud while at the store, and I've never had better hot fudge in my life. Wow! They have some elegant looking boxed chocolates, a counter top with singles to choose if you like, as well as things like licorice, gummies, etc.
Fun spot to investigate. Always something of interest to see and taste. Great chocolate tempt me every time I visit
Such a cute local candy store! So many options like gummies, truffles, bagged candies and local artisan chocolates. Go to the second floor! All the best stuff is up there and it's much bigger than the first floor.
I tried the dark chocolate covered cashews but I'm a little disappointed. The chocolate tastes a little off and I didn't get much cashew flavor. Plus they were Very pricey. I won't be back!

Hello Michelle, sorry to hear you did not enjoy your sample when visiting the shop. I think you will find our prices on par, if not favorable, to those of our gourmet local chocolatier competitors in Maine and we have individual chocolates beginning at 75 cents a piece, so certainly something for most everyone's budget.
Love these events.
Thank you so much, Sheryl! we love to host them.
This was a very nice place to buy treats for family members for Christmas. Lots of choices, very friendly staff.
Thank you, Jean! We are glad you enjoyed your experience in the store, thanks for shopping with us!

Excellent treats! Chocolate unlike anywhere else. Be sure to stop in you won't regret it.
Thank you for the kind words! So happy you enjoyed your selection of treats!
A little expensive but they have lots of hard to find old style candies. The house made candies are great.
Thank you for the compliment, we take great pride in our handcrafted chocolates.
