Watson's Chocolates
Buffalo's Best Sponge Candy
Considered Buffalo’s Best, our award-winning candy is crispy, tender chunks of caramelized spun sugar drenched in our wonderfully creamy chocolate. Available in milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and orange-flavored sponge.
Made by hand in small batches, each sponge is carefully cooked in our traditional copper kettles by our highly trained candy makers. We then carefully hand-pack and vacuum seal each gift box for freshness during shipping. Sponge Candy is gluten-free and available in a variety of sizes.
As always, our Sponge Candy is delicious anytime, but we suggest enjoying it within a week or two of purchase as heat and humidity are not its friend.

Buffalo's Best Sponge Candy
Always a treat. Arrived in great shape.
Excellent Valentines Weekend! I ordered in advance and it arrived on time.
It took 50+ years to re-discover the joy of "Sponge Candy." A ski trip to Holiday Valley in Ellicottville and a stop at Watsons. That's all it took and I have been mail ordering ever since.
Delish!!!
Watson’s has mastered the perfect sponge (no overdone, tooth-chipping hard bits here), then covered it with the most delectable milk chocolate to create the perfect melt-in-your-mouth confection!
We lived in Western New York approximately 10 years ago and truly miss your sponge candy. Especially around Valentines and Easter time. This Valentine's Day I ordered a pound of the best sponge candy I have ever had.
