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
We have always loved Watson! Especially the sponge candy!! We haven’t lived in Kenmore for about 38 years but we visit a couple of times a year and always get our sponge candy. And order online a couple of times a year also. Love it!!!
I was born & raised in Buffalo NY, but we have moved around the country over the years and we are currently in southern California where sponge candy and orange chocolate is not a thing. So I recently ordered from multiple chocolatiers in Buffalo NY so we could do a fun & delicious family taste test of milk chocolate sponge candy and orange flavored chocolates from Buffalo NY!
Watson's was the clear winner!! We highly recommend their wonderfully delicious milk chocolate sponge candy and the box of their orange flavored Buffalo bites!
The chocolate it worth getting. But don't order through Shop, their default online sales method, since the default shipping is way too slow and Shop will spam you until the end of time.
My family loves both the dark and milk chocolate!
Loved the milk only
