Tucked away in small-town Kokomo, Indiana, is a shop that might have teleported straight out of the heavens and landed among us mere mortals here on earth. It’s more than just a candy store; it’s a world-class chocolatier, one of Indiana’s best, and don’t even get us started on the cakes, cupcakes, and other baked goodies it offers, too. J Edwards Gourmet is a must-visit chocolate shop that has, easily, some of the best chocolates and cupcakes in Indiana you’ll ever indulge in. Sure, it’s not enormous, but the list of amazing things you can find here sure is. Check it out:

J. Edwards Gourmet was established in 2003, but honestly, it feels so much older.

It's a timeless Hoosier State classic, with some of the most delectable, decadent desserts you've ever tasted and the friendliest service in the world.
The first thing you'll probably notice upon walking in is the jumbo-sized display of slightly-larger-than-usual chocolates, truffles, and candies.

And speaking of "jumbo," everything in the store is pretty jumbo - especially the cupcakes. Sure, the whole point of a cupcake is a small, cup-sized cake you can hold in your hand, but J. Edwards Gourmet loves to take a little liberty with just how big that cup in your hand is.
The cupcakes are as delicious as they are visually appealing.

The aesthetic here matters. The shop prides itself on being the best, and it really excels at this (and everything else it does). You'll find pretty much anything you could ever dream up here, and if you don't, no worries - they'll make you anything, custom, no problem.
